Afternoon Blitz Predictions:

Im lovin all the doubt. Monday night we see a real Gibbs/Saunders offense, And it blows everyones mind.
i agree

Micheal Irvin's hard on for his boy T.O. is really starting to, well, leave a bad taste in mouth. I mean I like ESPN and all, even Tom Jackson and jackass Sean Salisbury, but why must I hear this biased bullshit. First of all, about how T.O. is the best thing since sliced bread and then about how the Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl because of him.

Are you kidding me? They had the audacity to say Parcells has the best defense since his days with the Giants. Are you kidding me?...T.O., Parcells, and possibly Bledsoe, won't even be in Dallas next year!!

TO is a great, great player, but I still think he might get a little too much credit for what he did in Philadelphia. Sure, he had a great Super Bowl, and he got that team over the "hump" in the NFC title game, but does anyone here really think that the Falcons team of 04 was as good as teh Panthers, Bucs, or Rams teams that they lost too?

Point being, TO is a great player, but I dont understand how him jumping onto a 9-7 team automatically makes them Super Bowl favorites.

Even though TO's a better receiver than Keyshawn on a pure talent level, dare I say I think Key was better suited for that team.

It simply boggles my dnim.

my prediction for monday redskins 31 vikings 17 as far as the season 10-6


On opening day in the new Gibbs era, history suggests that the Redskins will pull out an ugly, field goal-filled win.

Hey why not? He got the Iggles to a Super Bowl. Then imploded the team the following year.

One season for one game. Seems like a good trade for a one game improvement over the prior year, when the NFC Rip Van Winkle Division let the Iggles run wild and they still couldn't get 'er done.

Can't wait until Jerry Jones starts trying to refuse charges for TO's contract on his VISA check card.

Either outcome (the Saunders shootout or the Gibbs grind-it-out) is a good one, in its own way. With the shootout we get some confidence, some analysts get to eat crow, and we get to talk smack. With the grind-it-out, more teams will continue to underestimate and look past us, and we'll be better positioned to sneak off with the division title.

So yeah, it's a 20-17 win.

I think I'll just wait and see.. how does that sound? All of these predictions..blah, blah, blah...

No losing at FedEx this season. That's the goal.

Keep "misunderestimating" us. That's fine by me. But no doubt it's a tough division. And I agree that the team to worry about is Philly.
