25. Washington (LW: 26) 

Not RGIII. Not Kirk Cousins, but Colt McCoy! McCoy sparked Washington to a victory over Tennessee, and for one more week we should see McCoy start under center until Griffin can return. Then it’s time to really start evaluating.

What to know: “McCoy is the first player whose first pass of the season traveled 70-plus yards since wide receiver Mohamed Sanu did it against Washington in 2012. It was the longest completion of his NFL career, and the longest since he threw a 70-yard touchdown pass for the Longhorns against Central Florida in 2009.”  (ESPN Stats & Info).
