The Review-Journal’s Todd Dewey, handicapper Kelly Stewart (@KellyInVegas) and Wynn sports book director Johnny Avello preview the Redskins’ season in the 19th of a series of 32 NFL team videos in 32 days.
Washington went 8-7-1 last season and was quite profitable for bettors as it finished 10-6 against the spread and had a 12-4 over-under mark.
Quarterback Kirk Cousins was third in the league in passing yards, with 4,917, and had 25 touchdown passes against 12 interceptions. After losing wideouts DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon, Cousins’ top targets this year will be receiver Terrelle Pryor and tight end Jordan Reed.
The Redskins’ 2017 season win total is 7.5.
