welcome back to 9news. it's time now for double coverage. of course joining me like they

do every week, brian mitchell, david elston. mike shanahan talked earlier in the season about a playoff push. this is a good team. this is a great team. now he won't say the word rebuilding but he's talking about rebuilding. how does the redskins get here. injuries aside, how did they get here? >> they don't have great depth to begin with which a lot of teams don't have. and also their offense is never good, even when everybody was healthy, the biggest problem is they don't have a quarterback. >> when you get veterans like london fletcher, d'angelo hall, when there is no playoffs to play for, what are these guys going out on the field playing for. >> those guys are going to play for their spot. they want to go out there and show the young guys they can finish strong. fletcher is a guy that everyone needs to look like. this guy plays the same way no matter what. he doesn't go in when he's having a good game. he is always the same guy. and i think guys can learn from

that. >> a loss here for the redskins pretty much done for the season? >> i think they're pretty much done right now. >> there's still hope. >> well, they see hope because they beat miami and then they almost beat dallas and then they got seattle. if they lose this game, i think it's pretty much gone. >> they still have a couple wins out there maybe. if they lose this one, yes, dallas might be close. but they have seattle. and then they've got minnesota at the end. >> but you have six losses with the giants. >> well, maybe they're in a four here. they have four losses to win. >> okay. go with that. >> exactly. all right. thanks, guys. now it is time for the redskins free game picks. david, we'll start with you on offense. who has got the advantage, do you think? >> they're both pretty bad. i guess i'll give a slight advantage to miami only because they scored 31 points last week. >> bryan. >> i'll go with miami as well. the redskins to say they have the great coaches on offense,

they're doing absolutely nothing. so i'll go with miami dolphins. >> in terms of defense, would you give miami the advantage or redskins. >> i think the redskins have a better overall defense. it may not show that much, but they're better defense than miami. >> going with redskins. >> i think the redskins defense is the best. they don't look like they're playing as good as they are because the offense doesn't give them any help. they'll be the best on the field. >> all right. coaching? >> you know, brian convinced me to go with whoever is hot. but one win doesn't qualify as hot. shanahan buy default. >> i go with a tie. i look at tony. i expect it when i see it from him. ever since he put his glasses on at nighttime, i thought he was a little off anyway. but mike shanahan was supposed to come here and make this offense great. his son was supposed to have an innovative offense. they have done nothing. >> i'm going redskins 13-10. i think they're going to pull out a victory on this one.

david. >> 20-10 for the opponent. i'm sticking with it. miami 20-10. >> i'm going to go 21-17 miami dolphins. they played very well last three weeks. >> so i'm the odd one out in this win. i'm trying to stay optimistic and hopefully we can come up with something. >> i am too. >> it's kind of hard. >> realistic. >> exactly. >> thanks so much. 9news
