Mike Shanahan expects strong Green Bay Packers defense

Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan believes that the Green Bay Packers defense will prove tough for his side.

Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan has admitted that he is expecting a tough time for his side to break down the Green Bay Packers defense on Sunday.

Shanahan said that the Packers run a very consistent defense, but is also expecting them to mix up their plan in order to keep him guessing.

"Anytime you take a look at a defense that's right at the top 10 from a year ago – 10th or 11th – that you know is going to play a very sound defense, very consistent with [defensive coordinator] Dom Capers over the years," he told the club's official website.

"They do a good job. Great game plans. They change their game plans up every now and then to keep you off-balance. They'll always have a certain blitz that they normally bring in. You just know you're going against a well-coached team with a lot of speed."

The Redskins lost their season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.
