Is this going to be a spectacle, or what?

New England will have Darrelle Revis, Brandon Browner, Alfonzo Dennard, Logan Ryan, and Devin McCourty, while Washington will counter with DeSean Jackson, Pierre Garcon, Leonard Hankerson, and Santana Moss.

I can’t wait to see how these matchups play out. But to be completely honest, I don’t think Washington’s bunch has a shot at beating the Pats’ secondary. Throughout training camp, it as become clear that this defensive backfield means business, and will be one of the best in the NFL over the course of this coming season.

But it will still be nice to see how Revis and company react to Washington’s receivers, or to me, how they dominate this new crop of competition.
