Chicago v. Washington Predictions

This team is running on fumes emotionally speaking, has had just 1 day of practice to prepare for Chicago, and our offensive line should be on the back of a milk carton. Chicago's defense isn't the same defense we saw last year and their offense is inconsistent, but given the overall state of our team I cannot see us winning this one. Redskins fall to the Bears 24-17 and drop to 5-8.

I also predict that at least several people will implicitly blow off the loss of Sean Taylor, the one day of practice, etc. and use the loss as ammo to use against Gibbs.

Redskins are a better football team than the Bears, so I'm saying 28-19 Redskins.

Should the game go the other way, I can't say I'd be shocked.

We'll either lose "because of Gibbs" or win "in spite of Gibbs" Sure the defense might let Grossman throw all over the field, Campbell might throw an INT, the offensive line might get pushed back all day, but that doesn't matter. They are never to be held accountable for anything ever.

Seriously though (although I was serious about what I wrote above), if Campbell has no turnovers we win. His turnovers have been the biggest difference between 4-0 and 0-4 the past month. We're not getting blown out, just making costly mistakes. 17-6 Redskins.

Call it a hunch, but I think this is the game that Campbell atones for recent mistakes and makes a few huge plays in the passing game.

Portis played great last time against the bears and i think he will get 20+ carries, so I believe that we can and will win this game. 23-17 JC plays a solid game throwing for 1 TD and no INT'S! This is really our last shot at the playoffs.

28-7 skins. We get rolling early and open a can of whoop ass on the Bears as we release some of the frustrations of the last few weeks.

Unfortunately the combination of injuries and emotional hangover are too much to overcome, 24-13 Bears..

we will win three quarters.

Is it me, or does CJ only throw picks when he's driving to score the go-ahead points? I really don't think that will be a factor this week, partly due to Rex Grossman being another QB that's trying to find himself. Picks should be even for boths teams, but fumbles and lack of a running game will be the biggest factor here. I would pound Portis, Betts, and Sellers against them. That will open up the deep threat that we had returned to us last week (thanks SM).

Skins 20, Bears 17.

The Skins are done physically and mentally.
