Arguably, the Redskins toughest stretch of the season will happen from weeks 12-14. First, a Thanksgiving showdown in Dallas against the Cowboys on November 26th at 4:30. Then the Redskins will travel up I-95 to the Steel City to face the Pittsburgh Steelers on December 6th at 1pm. And the third of their three straight road games during this stretch will be on Sunday December 13th against the NFC Champs, the San Francisco 49'ers. The Redskins will face their former Offensive Coordinator Kyle Shanahan and will play against their former teammate Trent Williams, who was traded in April.
Washington's final three games of the season won't be easy either. On Sunday December 20th, they will host former Collegiate standout Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks at 1pm. The Redskins final home game of the year will be the following week when Head Coach Ron Rivera face his former team, the Carolina Panthers at FedEx Field on December 27th at 1pm. The Redskins will end the regular season just like they started it, with a date against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday January 3rd at 1pm.
