The Washington Redskins knew by Friday that they would be without top offensive lineman Trent Williams and one of their top offensive weapons in Chris Thompson.
They might actually hurt worse on defense, with the loss of perhaps their top cornerback this season, Quinton Dunbar.
That was 106.7 The Fan personality Grant Paulsen's point when game day inactives were announced. Here's why:
The Buccaneers have five receivers with more than 375 yards this season, including Mike Evans with 47 catches for 786 yards. By comparison, the Redskins have no receivers with more than 340 yards this season. Without Dunbar in the lineup, it could be a long day for the Redskins' secondary against Evans, Ryan "Fitzmagic" Fitzpatrick, and the Bucs' high-flying attack.
