Springs being back is gonna' be huge. Landry also should feel a little more comfortable after being back in the mix.
I think the Skins take this one 24-13, except the defense scores once for us.
We should have had at least 4 picks last week. Will our DBs ever learn to hold on to the ball???

Sorry to get off topic but i'm going to the saints game this sunday but unfortunately my tickets didnt come with a parking pass. Me and my buddies want to tailgate so metro isn't an option. I was wondering if any of you guys know about the cash lots? Do they fill up quick, and how much is it to park there?

I say Skins 24 Saints 21. I think we come out and take this one. The Saints D isn't all that, and having 10 days rest in between games will help us. Plus it's the home opener so I think we'll come out fired up. I'd like to see a deep pass or two in this one, and I think Portis will go over 100yds with a TD. Brees still throws at least 2 TDs though, even with Colston out.
I look for Kelly and/or Thomas to contribute as well.

I spect our d is going to be fucking jacked up this weekend. That said the Saints will still put up 10 to 14 points on breakout plays and... I don't see us scoring more than 6 or 7 points a game early in the season.
I think I hate myself.

Skins win but not by much. I just cannot pick against my team I cheer for every week. Not sure how you can pick against your own team but that just how I feel.
that's strange to me, because when I PICK a game, I pretend I have my house riding on it... its different than just which team I HOPE will win... I hope we never lose, but that's the reality.
To me picking the skins every week is like if someone were to award you or your family a billion dollars if you correctly guess your year of natural death... and you blurt out "never". I just dont have that mentality... im a realist.

The Saints D gave up a lot to a mediocre Bucs offense. This bodes well for us since we don't have all cylinders firing yet. Even if our offense doesn't play their best, they should still be able to put up points. Earnest Graham, Warrick Dunn and Jeff Garcia ran for 146 yards! Garcia also threw for 221 wit a TD.
I believe the extra practice time and Zorn's disappointment/realization of mistakes will keep him on their case and expect perfection. It will happen eventually and I'd be willing to bet sooner than later. Zorn seems like he'll really drive the players into shape.
Our defense played really well against the Giants, especially in the second half. We should be able to contain the Saints, especially without Colston and their only healthy RB being Reggie Bush, who isn't much as a RB. (as a WR...that's a different story) Thomas was hurt slightly in Week 1, McAllister is pretty much finished. They have a lot of WRs, but no one really that great other than Colston. Shockey can always lose you a game or win one for you.
I say Redskins 20, Saints 13
