NFL - Washington Redskins at St Louis Rams Sky Sports 9.15pm

Is RG3 the real deal? Well, he may get tested rather more seriously tonight as the Rams can at least mount a pass rush and, although the Redskins O line played well last week, it isn't a bunch to invest in blindly. The St Louis defense has capable players deep too and so Griffin will be throwing against a much better secondary - it'll be a fascinating battle. Michael Brockers will be out or limited and Alfred Morris should benefit as the Rams struggled against Kevin Smith last week. If the Redskins establish the run, watch out.

The Rams will also face an offensive challenge against a Washington stop unit that shows real promise. Unfortunately, Bradford is seated behind an O line that has personnel missing and has been weak against the pass rush, so he's likely to be on his toes. Steven Jackson offers some respite, but again, the 'Skins are strong at LB. Bradford dinkin' an' dunkin' ain't gonna feed the baby.


Pick: Washington Redskins -3.5 @ 1.91

Pick: 1st TD RG3 @ 15 (PP)
Pick: Anytime TD Danny Amendola @ 2.5
