Coach Ron Rivera came prepared with a slide presentation to show his players Tuesday, a day after Washington stopped Pittsburgh’s unbeaten run and remained in the thick of the playoff pursuit in the worse-than-mediocre NFC East. At 5-7 heading into next weekend’s game against San Francisco – a contest being played in Arizona because the 49ers had to abandon their home stadium because of the coronavirus pandemic – it’s not as if Washington is a juggernaut. Three consecutive victories for Alex Smith and the rest of the group will do that sort of thing, especially when the most recent was by a 23-17 score over the Steelers, who went into Monday’s game 11-0.
