The next three weeks are going to be very big. Next week the Skins host the Steelers on Sunday, then play at Philadelphia on Thursday night. Both of those teams are 6–2 and the Eagles are, at least as of this point in the season, the Skins' competition to win the NFC East with the Giants in a tailspin and the Cowboys treading water. Following those two games, they host Dallas on November 24. This is a three-game stretch that could make or break the season. (They get the Eagles at home the Sunday before Christmas and then they travel to Dallas the weekend after New Year's.)
