LOS ANGELES—Here are five players who are under pressure tomorrow as the Redskins face the Rams.

QB Kirk Cousins—The $24 million man laid an egg in the opener. To be sure, the Redskins didn’t run nearly often enough. But the quarterback turned the ball over three times himself so it’s doubtful that the Redskins would have won even with a running game that didn’t have Cousins tied as the leading rusher.

RT Morgan Moses—He allowed three sacks and overall, he did not look like the guy who played well enough to earn a contract extension last April. If I’m the Rams, I occasionally flip OLB Robert Quinn, who is still a pass-rushing terror when he’s healthy (he’s healthy now), over to test Moses. Regardless, he needs to play better than he did last week.

WR Terrelle Pryor—Yes, I know all about the timing with Cousins thing. But in Week 1 six players who were playing with different quarterbacks caught as many passes or more as Pryor did. It’s not impossible to get in sync during an offseason program, training camp, and three preseason games. Perhaps both need to stop being concerned with perfection and just play some pitch and catch.

S D.J. Swearinger—His worst play came early as he bounced off Nelson Agholor at around the 10-yard line as the Eagles scored on their third play from scrimmage. His play improved from there but he still had an overall mediocre game. He is emerging as a team leader (he called a team huddle before practice on Wednesday) but it’s hard to maintain credibility as a leader if you’re not playing well.

S Deshazor Everett—I rarely list two players at the same position here but Everett did not play well either. Swearinger is unlikely to get benched. If Everett’s play doesn’t pick up in the next few games the Redskins could be tempted to take a look at fourth-round pick Montae Nicholson who has impressed after getting started late due to an injury.
