The Washington Redskins will face an NFC North foe at FedExField for a second straight week when the Redskins host the Green Bay Packers in Week 11. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. ET.

The game will be the Redskins' first appearance on NBC's Sunday Night Football in the Jay Gruden era. A win Sunday would represent the team's first win on Sunday Night Football since a memorable divisionclinching victory against the Dallas Cowboys in the 2012 regular season finale.

The Redskins have made for must-see TV in recent weeks, as the Redskins are one of only four NFL teams (Giants, Lions and Seahawks) to have had five games decided by seven points or less since Week 5.

While the Redskins' offense has commanded attention for its Top 5 ranking in total offense (407.8 yards per game), the Redskins' defense has quietly assembled a strong pass rush that ranks tied for third in the NFC and tied for sixth in the NFL in sacks. The Redskins' 25 sacks are the third-most by a Redskins team through nine games since 2000 and the team's most through nine games since 2011 (27).
