Redskins vs. Lions predictions

Lions load the box with 8 and Campbell blows them up for 350+.

Skins 34
Lions 9 (three field goals)

Coach Z on the offense against Detroit: "I don't know if we're even gonna gain a yard,...but we're gonna come out and try." Considering the sinister look on his face during the latter part, i get the feeling we are going to smoke these fools. but who knows im goin with

Skins-27
Lions(Raarrhh)-14

Redskins 73, Lions 0 Jason Campbell throws 5 TDs. Portis runs for 219 yds. 42-0 at halftime. Hail to the Redskins!

OK, they shouldn't be able to run run on us and they won;t get much passing. Their ST's aren't too good, so I can't see them scoring more than 6-10 points.

We should be able to run all over them - I believe Portis single game high is 224 yards and maybe he can beat that. We won't go to town if the run game is working, so maybe c. 2-250 yards. If we can get 4-500 yards offense, we should score 28-35 points at least. 3-4 TD's on the ground, 1-2 TD's in the air and/or a FG or two.

Overall, I go 31-6 Skins.

Lions 12
Redskins 38

I think S. Alexander will have a TD, Portis will get a TD, Moss will have 2 TDs, and D. Thomas gets his first.

Heres what Peter King of SI thinks:


Washington Redskins (5-2) at Detroit Lions (0-6)
It makes no sense, picking Dan Orlovsky to win an NFL game. But I've had pretty good luck with the upset recently -- Miami over San Diego, St. Louis over Dallas -- and I've got the Washington-taking-Detroit-lightly feel here, along with the Marinelli-making-life-miserable-for-his-losers feel. Detroit will play very hard and get a few bounces, finally.

Prediction: Detroit Lions 20, Washington Redskins 17


WTF is he thinking

He's a notorious Redskins hater. This shit is normal from him when it comes to our burgundy and gold.

We've already fallen into our trap game a couple of weeks ago. We come out guns blazing and win big, 34-6.

Last time I saw the Lions Skins play in Detroit it was in the Silverdome in 2000 and Neon Deion let Johnny Morton blow him away, plus Brad Johnson threw a dumbass late INT to seal the Skins fate. I think the Skins will win something like 35-10, but I am worried it might end up being like the Rams game. We might play outright flat and the Lions are desperate. They might not have Kitna/Williams, but they still have Calvin Johnson and our secondary is beat to hell. Orlovsky isn't the most accurate passer, but he does have a good arm. As of today there is still 6,000 tickets left so the game probably will be blacked out here in Detroit. I got my ticks cheap and look forward to seeing my Skins win in Detroit!!!!!! I hope to god Zorny lets Jason open up the air game!!!!!
