The game will be televised to a national audience on Thursday, September 4th at 7:00 pm at Giants Stadium on NBC. The Redskins open up the home campaign against Reggie Bush and the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, September 14th. The Saints have not played in Washington since the 2003 season, but running back Reggie Bush competed at FedExField during his junior season at Southern California in a game against Virginia Tech. He finished with 258 all-purpose yards and three touchdown receptions. The schedule includes three nationally televised games, including the Week 1 match-up with the Giants: a Week 9 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers at FedExField on November 3rd on ESPN’s Monday Night Football, and a Week 11 home game against division rival the Dallas Cowboys on November 16th on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. The bye week will fall in Week 10. In addition to their division rivals, the Redskins and FedExField will be host to the Saints in Week 2, Cardinals in Week 3, Rams in Week 6, Browns in Week 7 and Steelers in Week 9. After opening the season on the road against the Giants, the Redskins next two road opponents this season include trips to their remainder NFC East rivals: Weeks 4 at Dallas and Week 5 at Philadelphia. Other road games include: Detroit in Week 8, Seattle in Week 12, Baltimore in Week 14, Cincinnati in Week 15 and the final regular season game at San Francisco in Week 17. “I look forward to the 2008 season. We have a tremendous challenge before us with our upcoming schedule,” said Head Coach Jim Zorn “We open with the defending Super Bowl Champion New York Giants and three of our first five games are against division rivals which will be a tough task in the best division in football. I know the fans will be thrilled for our first home game at FedExField against the New Orleans Saints. I am very excited to hear our fans and the atmosphere in support of this team. The League gave me an extra bonus in returning to Seattle to coach against my former team and great coach Mike Holmgren in late November.” Date Opponent Time* Television Thursday, September 4 @ New York Giants 7 PM NBC Sunday, September 14 NEW ORLEANS SAINTS 1 PM FOX Sunday, September 21 ARIZONA CARDINALS 1 PM FOX Sunday, September 28 @ Dallas Cowboys 4:15 PM FOX Sunday, October 5 @ Philadelphia Eagles 1 PM FOX Sunday, October 12 ST.

MDRedskinsFan Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 If this is the schedule, it actually is pretty favorable. A bye after the MNF game, and toughest part of schedule is the back-to-back road trips to Dallas and Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heidenreich Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Now I just have to figure out what game to make the trip for. That 11/3 Monday nighter vs Pittsburgh looks pretty tempting.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I love that we play at home vs. Philly on 12/21 and then turn around and play @SF the PREVIOUS day! We must fly somewhere over the island from LOST for that to occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. Kaos Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 If i read the calendar correctly thats 1 MNF game and 1 Thursday Night (opener). Not exactly what I was hoping for, but the strength of schedule looks to be in our favor for the time being. :point2sky :point2sky :point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebowski Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 So without looking at a calender I only see one Monday and one Thursday. No Saturdays. I was hoping for a Saturday game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
