No. 4 Jamison Crowder vs New Orleans

Jamison Crowder was here a few weeks ago and snagged a nice touchdown before the layup over the goalpost celebration. You see what happens at least half the time each week? We’re giving you touchdowns (metaphysically).

Crowder has the best matchup this weekend of the bunch. We’re talking torched and the New Orleans secondary has been torched. Not Tampa Bay torched, shoutout Mitch Trubisky, but they’ve still given up 11 touchdowns and 1244 yards in the pass game.

The Redskins are coming off the bye and get a tough matchup against the current MVP in Alvin Kamara and ageless gem Drew Brees. We often talk about playing from behind. If New Orleans finds space early, Washington will be playing from behind most of this week. Crowder had four catches for 39 yards and a touchdown in the win over Green Bay going into the bye. I like him for similar numbers this weekend against New Orleans.
