I stated in my initial comments what my point was. I just made it clearer in my 2nd post.


Ok, I see that now. Glossed over it initially (due to how wrong and stupid the comments about the Hawks defense were). Point taken. I take back my comments about changing your stance. Mea culpa.

Still horribly wrong though. ;)

I see your point drastik but... The weeks you scored so many points on the Rams and Cinci, they were still trying to figure out RGIII and how he plays because it was the begining of the season. and at the end of the season when the Skins won all the games it was against IMHO mediocore compition. With the exception of Baltimore.

The last 7 games and thier end of the year standings
Philly 4 - 12
Dallas – 8 - 8
NY Giants – 9-7
Baltimore – 10 - 6
Browns - 5 – 11
Philly – 4 - 12
Dallas – 8 – 8

I love how fans of opposing teams try to persuade opposing fans to their points of view. It's amusing to me.
As far as this game goes, I don't really fear anything about the Redskins. Their offense has some great pieces, but in general, great defenses neutralize great offenses, and while the skins have a GOOD offense, I wouldn't call it great.
On the other side of the ball, Seattle has a good offense, certainly not great, but the skins have a very suspect defense.
As other posters have said, I think this game will come down to Seattle's defense. If they show up and play well, the game is almost certainly ours.
I will say, though, that the combo of Griffin and Morris, 2 of the top 5 offensive rookies to come into the league this year, is an interesting puzzle to solve. Luckily, we have 4 good games to look at where opponents held them to under 20 points. I think Seattle's defensive unit/staff is up to the task.

Couple of things to note. They outscored us by 18 points (430-412) over the course of the season. But they also allowed 140 more points (385 vs 245) than the Seahawks this season. They did so after facing an equal number of what CHFF would rate as "quality opponents" They went 3-3, we went 5-1 against quality opponents.

Players guaranteeing wins is about the dumbest thing in sports. It's a lose lose move...........all you're doing is giving the other team bulletin board material, at the same time putting more pressure on yourself and your team.

Guarantee win = look at me!

It's irrelevant. they can over-estimate us if they want. They still have no shot.

We will get our points in my opinion, , as stated previously by others though it really is all about our defence v their offence.

Figure out the Morris/RG3 conundrum, or seriously limit them and we win. Let them have their way and we lose.

My biggest concern is the nippy recievers and TE's over the middle if we bite on the PA plays. Hawks have had trouble with these types of recievers in previous games. All in all though I do feel if we both execute and all 3 facets of both teams play to their full potential, well hawks easily win in 2 of the 3 phases, and the other phase (the offence) its a push and we win.

However I always come back to "any given sunday" and this certianley applies this weekend. The game could go either way

Nor can a team that lost to Arizona, Detroit and Miami. That was then, this is now.

Once RG-III is introduced to Mr Chancellor, we'll be seeing Cousins for the rest of the game.

Unfortunately, that wouldn't give me any additional comfort. Cousins is better than about 1/2 the QBs we have faced this year, and we won't be specifically game planning for him. I would rather RG3 keep playing through the pain.

IMHO we win this game by scoring points early and often. Our D will limit them, but they will still score points. We need to build a lead and put pressure on them to play catch-up ball. I really don't want this to come down to the wire because they have the ability to pull out a few great plays. And, I don't like it coming down to the wire on their home field (see McCoy's slip in the first Rams game).....

If the Redskins had any big mismatches in their favor on offense favor I'd be worried.

They don't.

Go ahead and guarantee the win, once we lose you'll feel like shit and start making threads like fire Pete, fire RW.


Didn't we all guarantee the win in week 1 against the Cardinals because all their QB played like shit in pre-season?


There's no guarantee wins in the NFL. Injuries and Upsets happen all the time.

How can you say no shot? That's like saying we are superior and you are lame...Yes the Seahawks are good, but to me no shot is missing the bus to the stadium. The Chiefs could beat the Broncos on any given Sunday. In fact the score was 17-9 on 11/25.

don't give me this crap....

Don't read it if you don't like it. The Seahawks are very healthy, very hot and better all over the field than that wee club of yours up there. The skins might as well miss the bus, it won't affect the outcome of the game one iota. Zero chance the skins win this one. No chance at all. You had a nice run after a crappy start to the season, but it's about to come to an end on Sunday night. Don't cry, though. Still a lot to like about the future of your wee team up there, and winning 7 in a row - albeit against shite competition - is nothing to be sniffed at.

Still, no shot on Sunday.

ok..we'll see...i never said we would win, but i'm not going to admit the skins have no chance. don't expect to come out here and beat us 58-0 and try to run up the score or whatever it is you do...scoring TDs up 51 points with 2 min left in the game

LOL, wow. The 'running up the score' thing. Guess what? the team playing Defense can stop it if they don't like it. Whining about running up the score if for pussies and losers.

I already said in the prediction thread that I don't know what the score will be, all I know is that the Seahawks will win, and the Redskins don't have a chance of winning. Not a one. No shot.
