Yea, i don't see that happening. But really what have we shown this year so far to think this is a gimmee for the skins. Not much.

They have really speedy receivers and a pretty good QB...deffinately not a game to overlook.....But, if we play to our potential we have it!!!! Look for alot of gained confidence this week, which will lead to a victory next week vs. the Jags :-) (I HOPE!)

I think the most important thing for us to win the game is to have a strong game defensively. We obviously can't expect the offense to put up 42, so the defense is going to be the key. I also have my doubts about CP being able to start the whole game. I'd rather see more Betts and Duckett carrying it, so CP doesn't get too banged up and save him for the Jags.

And I don't think Kings prediction is that absurd. Like another poster stated, what have we done so far to make the talking heads think that this game is a lock for us? The answer is nothing.

The Texans have the worst Pass Defense in the league. Andre Johnson is the only receiving threat they have. and they have no rush offense. Carr has been sacked 217 times in 60+ starts.

However, that's why they don't play these games on paper, but inside our television sets.

I could see Houston winning but not by 2 TDs. I think Portis sets the tone and Brunell finally figures out how to throw deeper than 10 yards.

I must say, I find that...........stunning

If I wasnt a Skins fan...Id pick houston as well. Their offense is firing and ours is sputtering...and that great D of ours isnt stopping much of anything right now...

yes yes, I have hope, as a fan, that portis gives us the spark we need, blah blah blah blah, but I think most comentators would pick Houston over us right now..

Take the teams and the PK aspect out of this.

If you break the game down:

Team A is at home. QB has the #2 QB rating. TD/INT is 4/0. Scoring offense is 17.0 PPG.

Team B is on the road. QB has the #25 QB rating. TD/INT is 0/1. Scoring offense is 13.0 PPG.

Defensively, Team B has the edge. However, it is pretty clear that Team B just isn't able to move the ball or score.

Is it really crazy to pick Team A -- especially since they are laying 4?

That said, I expect the Skins to somehow win. I fear what this place will look like if they don't.

Surprise Supise King picks against the Skins. I'm stunned!
News flash. The Wight brothers took to the air near Kitty Hawk, N.C., the first controlled, sustained flights in a power-driven airplane

no surprise there, PK & other analysts want to make a seemingly bold prediction, hence the 2 tds. If not for the 2 tds, it would be an avg. pick.
What I wonder is, did these guys watch the Minn. game? Yeah we had our problrms, but it was competitive. Seems like the dallas game is getting blown out of proportion, though we did suck!

On the Dan Patrick show about 20 minutes ago King reversed himself and picked the Skins over Houston. I guess now he can claim he picked correctly no matter what! What a douchebag.
