Washington Redskins (3-9) at Green Bay Packers (9-3)

Sunday, December 8, 1PM ET

I know, right? This just seems ridiculous. How on Earth do I expect the Green Bay Packers to drop one at home to the Washington Redskins? I must have a screw loose or something, because the Packers are not going to lose to a 3-9 team at Lambeau Field. Or are they?

I admit it would be a huge upset — one to a degree of which we rarely see in the NFL. And yet, as we all know, anyone can win on any given Sunday. All it takes is a little luck and a major momentum swing or two. That’s what I’m predicting will happen in Week 14 when the Redskins to go Wisconsin and hand the Packers a crushing defeat.

It won’t be pretty. This game could feature a few turnovers from each team, plenty of sacks and more nonsense that is enjoyable to watch. And yet, when all is said and done, the Redskins will come out on top. How? Using their electric young running back Derrius Guice against the Packers’ 25th-ranked run defense.

Guice runs up, over and around the Green Bay defense, allowing Washington to take a slim lead into the fourth quarter. Aaron Rodgers does his best to win the game, but a costly turnover on what should be a cold, rainy day does the Packers in. That, right there, is my boldest upset prediction of the season so far.

Prediction: Redskins win 21-20
