Preseason

Regular season

Due to the addition of the Houston Texans in 2002 and a subsequent change to the NFL's scheduling formula, the 2004 season was the first time since 1991 that the Redskins played the Cincinnati Bengals; the Bengals won the game, the first time they had done so at the Redskins. It was also the first time the Redskins had hosted the Green Bay Packers since 1979.
