2. Khalil Mack records 2 sacks

Yes, the defense may not hold the Redskins to 10 points. At this point, that call can make a bold call post. However, calling for defensive regression does not mean that Khalil Mack will not eat. Mack has been a force this season. His presence has allowed others to thrive, but he has not set the world on fire statistically.

This week may change that. Donald Penn and Morgan Moses can both be exposed. Mack can certainly do it. The biggest difference in Vic Fangio to Chuck Pagano has been the way the team moves Mack around. He will line up on both and may even line up inside on the guards.

Mack is born for primetime and this is going to be the game for him to break out. Since Mack is such a star, maybe the call of two sacks is not bold enough for some. So, we will make it even more specific. Mack will record two sacks against both of the Redskins starting tackles. He will get one on the left side, then will line up on the right and get one.
