Carter is in his third season with the Washington Redskins and eighth in the NFL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After their thrilling victory over perhaps the best team in the NFL, the Redskins solidified themselves as one of the top teams in the league and tightened up the already competitive NFC East, arguably the best division in football. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Beating America&#8217;s Team<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Dallas Cowboys were riding high atop the NFL standings at 3-0. Then the Redskins served them a two-point loss in their last regular season matchup at Texas Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The win came as a surprise to many doubters and opened the eyes of non-believers who felt the Redskins couldn\u2019t compete in the NFC East. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don&#8217;t know why the media never gave us a chance. Regardless, at the end of the day, we played for each other and as one,\u201d said Redskins defensive end Andre Carter. He helped the Redskins defense pressure Dallas quarterback Tony Romo throughout the Redskins 26-24 victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Redskins Offense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Redskins were led by the outstanding play of quarterback Jason Campbell, wide receiver Santana Moss, and running back Clinton Portis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Campbell was able to get his first win in Dallas, while Moss caught eight passes for 145 yards and Portis ran 21 times for 121 yards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moss exploited Dallas\u2019 secondary with long receptions of 53, 28, 17, 15 and 13 yards while. Portis bowled over the defensive line and linebackers like a man on a mission. He powered through tacklers and bursting through open holes for his best overall performance of the season. Since his arrival in 2004, the Redskins are 17-3 when Portis rushes for 100 yards or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPortis is in the zone. He crawls and scratches for each yard. In addition, the offensive line is doing a fantastic job opening holes for C. P. It\u2019s working out week-by-week,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Rivalry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The victory earned head coach Jim Zorn a spot in Redskins lore. He will go down as the only Redskins coach to be undefeated in Texas Stadium. Along with Coach of the Week honors, he is slowly beginning to understand the true meaning of this Redskins-Cowboys rivalry. One of the players who understand the intensity of this rivalry is Andre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think I had an understanding of the Redskins and Cowboys rivalry since \u201806 when I first arrived. It\u2019s hardcore. Fans fighting fans; verbal exchanges being made on-and-off the field. You gotta love it,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eagles Next<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That intensity will have to carry over this week as they face the Philadelphia Eagles (2-2) at Lincoln Financial Field. They currently sit last place in the division. They could easily be 4-0 if not for four point losses to the Cowboys and Chicago Bears on the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Eagles have been, and to this day, a great football team despite their record. I respect them and they play hard regardless of the score. All division opponents are tough to play no matter what their record is,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Redskins scored 26 points against a good defense last Sunday but the offense will have to step it up. Having to face a fierce Eagles defense that ranks third in the league in overall defense is daunting. Philly lead the league in rush defense (53.8 rushing yards per game) and sacks (17).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Philly Fans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The offense will not only have to worry about a fast, aggressive, blitz-happy defense, they will have to contend with Philly\u2019s notorious crowd as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe fans in Philly . . . you have to love them. There are a plethora of middle fingers and f-bombs all game. They throw golf balls at our buses as we are driving to the stadium. God bless them,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eagles Offense<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The defense will also have to face a challenge of another kind in the form of quarterback Donovan McNabb, who has had great success against the Redskins in the past. He has been dealing with a chest injury for the past couple of weeks but it won\u2019t stop him from going all out this weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Redskins may or may not have to deal with versatile running back Brian Westbrook, whose status for Sunday\u2019s game is up in the air due to an ankle injury that held him out of last week\u2019s loss versus the Bears. Despite the uncertainty, the Redskins defense is still preparing as if he will suit up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith Brian Westbrook, you have to assume that he is playing. Never assume that a player is not playing the week of a game. You never know,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Redskins defense held the Cowboys power running back Marion Barber to only 26 yards on 8 carries, so they know what they\u2019re getting themselves into when it comes to facing productive runners, should they face Westbrook, whose brother Byron is a cornerback on the Redskins practice squad playing the role of Brian on the scout team in practice this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith Barber or with any good running back, you have to be strong on the defensive line and the linebackers fill in the blanks. We tackled pretty good, but we could do better. Eleven players to the ball play-by-play,\u201d Carter said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Evans For Taylor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Redskins will once again be without defensive end Jason Taylor, meaning they will rely on a reserve rotation led by veteran Demetric Evans, who started last week in place of Taylor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDemetric Evans is a great player. He is not a backup player. He works as a starter and plays a starting role. He did a great job last week. He was physical in the run game and non-stop in his pass rush,\u201d Carter said in regards to Evans\u2019 performance against the Cowboys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Defending Jackson<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team may also be without cornerback Shawn Springs against the Eagles. Springs had a very impressive game last week covering Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens, so his absence would be crucial considering this week the secondary will be matched up against rookie wide receiver DeSean Jackson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jackson has brought a different dynamic to this Eagles team, forcing opposing defenses to focus on more than Westbrook as the heart of the offense. At any given moment, if a defense loses track of him, he can beat them with his speed and ability to catch the long ball while taking it to the house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The secondary, however, will be aided with surprise seventh round safety Chris Horton, who earned NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month (for September) and NFL Rookie of the Week (for his interception against the Cowboys). So far, the overachieving rookie has piled up three awards and there are still three quarters of the season left to play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">One At A Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the Redskins can pull off a victory against the Eagles this Sunday, it will be a huge achievement and confidence-builder considering who they will have lined up for the next three weeks: St. Louis, Cleveland, and Detroit. But like Dallas just experienced this past Sunday, in the NFL, each team lives by the rule of \u201cany given Sunday,\u201d meaning any NFL team can beat another at any time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis win was a great accomplishment, however, it was one game. One game out of 16 is a small margin for what we are trying to reach. Playing in an NFL season is a process. You have to stay grounded despite the wins and losses and stay hungry,\u201d Carter said in regard to Sunday\u2019s victory over the Cowboys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Under the Helmet:<\/b> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THN: What is your favorite show on TV right now? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AC: I love the show Entourage. It&#8217;s classic entertainment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THN: Where is your favorite vacation spot? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AC: My favorite vacation spot is Maui, Hawaii.
