Rex Grossman has a 23-16 career record as a starter. That record is updated and displayed every time he starts a game, more as justification than information: “Yes, we know you are watching a guy close his eyes and heave the ball into tight downfield coverage, but look, he has won many games, so he must do something right.” The entire Redskins offense closed ranks around Grossman after his four-interception meltdown against the Eagles, which meant it was only a matter of hours before Mike Shanahan named John Beck (career record: 0-4, earned honestly) the starter. If you did not celebrate the renaissance of Redskins team unity, wise management and long-range planning before last week, it is now probably too late. Pick: Panthers.

The Panthers were forced to put RT Jeff Otah on injured reserve again this season. By the end of the season, Otah will have missed 35 games due to injuries while starting just 29. He struggled again with his weight this season (over 350 pounds) and back pain. It means that rookie Byron Bell will take his place. If Bell struggles, Travelle Wharton will shift from guard to tackle.

    • The Bucs are a tough matchup. Since this will be our first meeting with them this season it's best to compare most recent results with expectations. They trounced the Giants 30-7 last Sunday. They put up 451 yards of offense including 157 rushing yards on the Giants who are currently ranked 19th in total defense. For comparison sake we are currently 30 out of 32. If we can only muster one passing touchdown in this one we will likely be blown out. All circumstances aside we've got to get in the end zone. This being a home game should help I hope.
    • I remember last Thanksgiving we were at least 3 weeks past having anything to root for with the Panthers. Now we're on the rise and I'm looking forward to watching the boys Sunday. Grateful for that.
