The Redskins managed to claim a home 23-20 win over their NFC East division rivals the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4 to move to 2-2, and they will be hoping to build momentum with another win here today.

However, they come up against a Falcons team flying high on 4-0, and they will be confident to claim a fifth win of the season today in the Georgia Dome.

Washington has surprised many with their performances so far this season. Even though they are only on 2-2 they have shown a lot more confidence and aggression on both sides of the ball than many had expected. That has seen their defense move to sixth ranked overall in the league through the first quarter of the season, which is a massive improvement compared to their 20th ranking last season for yards allowed.

However, if they are to cause an upset against the Falcons today then they must find their feet on the road. They have lost eight of nine road games under head coach Jay Gruden, which simply is not good enough if the Redskins have any serious ambitions of being a competing team.

Earlier this week on Thursday Night Football, the Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans faced off with the Colts claiming a hard earned 27-20 victory.

The story of the night was Andre Johnson, who caught two touchdown passes against his former team to secure the win for the Colts.

Johnson of course spent 12 seasons in the NFL with the Texans before being released by Houston earlier this year in March. Johnson finished the the game with six catches for 77 yards, and ultimately proved the difference between the teams.

The victory meant that the Colts have won a record breaking 16 consecutive AFC South games, the longest such streak in the NFL.

The Colts claimed the win despite losing star quarterback Andrew Luck to injury for the second game in a row. He was replaced by 40 year old veteran Matt Hasselbeck, who was also thought not to be in perfect fitness after missing training just two days before on Tuesday.
