There are high hopes for Washington Redskins QB Jason Campbell. In seven games as starter, Campbell threw 10 touchdowns to 6 interceptions. Sportsbook.com has posted the Washington Redskins betting odds to win Super Bowl XLII at 50 to 1.
The Redskins are also counting on Santana Moss rebounding from an injury plagued and disappointing 2006 campaign. As for their other receivers, free agent acquisitions Brandon Lloyd and Antwaan Randle El were both huge busts. Chris Cooley is an underrated TE who had 734 yards and 6 touchdowns.
“I'm not a big Jason Campbell fan I think this team will be poor,” stated Point-Spreads.com NFL expert handicapper Brad Marchetti. “I like the under 7.5 wins for the regular season win totals betting odds.“
Behind a solid offensive line, the Skins should have a very strong rushing game. Clinton Portis returns after missing over half of the season due to injury. His replacement, Ladell Betts, filled in nicely on his way to 1154 rushing yards and 445 receiving yards.
Ranking 31st in the NFL, the Washington Redskins defense was an absolute mess last season. They did set a record last season; unfortunately it was for forcing the fewest turnovers (12) for a 16 game schedule. Their defense does have potential though. If Sean Taylor can keep his head on straight, he could team up with 1st rounder LaRon Landry as formidable safety tandem.
