Since both teams have the same bye week, there was speculation that both teams would take this week off and play in Week 8.
It still remains to be seen if the game will be played at FedEx Field, which is located in Landover, Maryland. If the game isn't played at FedEx Field, the NFL has discussed reloacting the game to a neutral site.
The current radar shows that the hurricane won't reach Washington until Monday.
