Two Monday night games. One Sunday night tilt. Opening the season against New York's best.
You'd think the Redskins were a playoff team or something.
The NFL released its 2009 schedule Tuesday night and was quite generous toward the Redskins with all of the primetime action.
The Redskins also caught a break with a bye during Week 8, a good time to rest up weary bones for a second-half surge.
The full schedule is below.
