Duane Thomas to shine as Redskins host Lions tonight
Washington prepares a display night for Duane Thomas while George Allen limits risk to last season's MVP Larry Brown. The Redskins likely field the same starters as their Super Bowl run, with Roger Staubach set to play partial action for the Cowboys against the Rams. Oilers make two trades sending Fdesel Garrison to the Rams for an undisclosed pick and obtaining Eddie Richardson from the Giants for an eighth round 1974 choice.
