The season is more than half over and theWashington Redskins need your help. Their statistical analysis computer has crashed and the technical support experts say it cannot be repaired in time for the game on Sunday.  They have no way to reveiw the statistics of their opponent and predict who should win the game.  Review the information below and predict the winner based on the STATISTICS. Then write a brief report to send to the coach.
 

Your Task:

The Process:
    1. Print the form for recording your data.
    2. Visit the Redskins webpage to find the schedule of games, so that you can decide which team you will analyize.
    3. Go to each of the Teams' statistics page on the NFL.com page.
    4. Record your findings on the form.
