Here is what you need to know on Monday, September 24, 14 days before the Washington Redskins visit the New Orleans Saints.

Talking points

Here are some players who saw their stock go up during the Redskins’ impressive win over the Packers and some who saw their stock drop.

Stock up—For the third straight game, DE Matt Ioannidis got a sack. There are many who say that Jamison Crowder is the best late-round gem that Scot McCloughan found in his two drafts as the general manager of the Redskins. But you may have to consider Ioannidis for that title. He was a fifth-round pick who now has 7.5 sacks in the last season plus three games. The Temple product also is a stout run defender.

Stock down—Right tackle Morgan Moses had to leave the game with a concussion in the first quarter and Ty Nsekhe came in. The substitute got flagged for at least three penalties including a couple of false starts and a holding penalty that cost them field position in the second half. There is a myth going around that he’s just as good as Moses and Trent Williams. He’s good enough to have as a swing tackle, but don’t think that there is not a considerable drop off when he enters the game.

Stock up—During the past week QB Alex Smith took plenty of fire for being a check-down type of quarterback. He didn’t really stretch the field in the first two games. His only completion of over 34 yards came on a short pass that Adrian Peterson turned into a 53-yard gain. Sunday he aired it out a couple of times with a 46-yard TD bomb to Paul Richardson on the opening drive. In the second quarter, he dropped a dime to Vernon Davis, who was streaking down the right sideline. That play was good for 50 yards and it helped set a touchdown that gave the Redskins a comfortable 28-10 halftime lead. Smith completed 12 of 20 passes for 220 yards, an impressive 11 yards per attempt.

Stock down—It wouldn't be accurate to say that WR Josh Doctson didn't have an impact on the game. He drew two pass interference flags that helped a scoring drive including one in the end zone that set up Adrian Peterson’s two-yard touchdown run that lifted the Redskins to a 14-0 advantage. But a first-round draft pick needs to have more impact than that. He was targeted three times and he did not catch a pass. He is running out of time to get that breakout year he needs in this third NFL season.

Stock up—TE Jordan Reed didn’t catch a ton of passes but his four receptions for 64 yards had an impact. In particular, a pass he caught in the second quarter created a swing. The Redskins faced third and six from their own six. Smith went to Reed over the middle about 20 yards downfield. Reed caught the pass, eluded some tacklers with a couple of nice moves, and ended up with a 34-yard gain. That got the Redskins going on a 98-yard touchdown drive. That was their longest touchdown drive since a game against the Bears in 1999 when they drove 99 yards for a TD.

Injury report

OT Morgan Moses left the game in the first quarter with a concussion.
