I think saying we're going to beat NYG is pretty optimistic. I don't have a big problem with your other predictions, but I wouldn't make the margin of victory so great by any means. All of our victories so far this season have been by less than 10 points.
I cannot deny your comments are valid!
It is.....almost ....##@*&% beyond me to PICK a Skins loss......

Call me what you want i'm a little concerned over the way we've been playing. I'm looking to see is we can step it up this week. JC has got to step it up this week and make some plays. I don't think there are any "gimmees" w/ this team.
I think we'll win this week.

we need to end up 11-5 just to make the playoffs? geezus christ that would be tough. arent we in a good positon to win the tie-breakers against teams like the boys and iggles so that 10-6 would get us in?
that means we HAVE TO handle our business against seattle (who i would love to destroy for the past 2 playoff losses and zorns return), cincy and 49ers (who is not a gimme game) . . . . this is going to be tough if 11-5 is the true mark. meaningful football at the end of the season is all we can ask for.
go skins!!

For my sanity the Ravens game is a must win. All of you B-more Skins fans now what I am talking about.
Well at least you can tell the B-more fans that you are Definitely rooting for their team this week. And I work in a Ravens dominated office...

10-6 would easily get a playoff birth. Beat Seattle, Cinncy, S.F. and one divisional game gets us to the playoffs.

Its going to be almost impossible for a 10-6 team to make the NFC wildcard spot. Both the NFC South and East are too deep.

That's finishing 5-2. I really think we can play better than the Giants. But we struggle against teams that are good at stopping the run, ie Baltimore. I don't feel the Flacco is going to have a good week against us. Hall returns a punt for td in that game.

we better beat dallas
I don't think we'll travel well to the west coast... we never really have... and the weather will probably be a factor, so i'll give the hawks that game. baltimore is tough as crap and playing excellent football in every aspect right now. baltimore with a potent offense is scary as hell...
NY is also a great team, but is the loss I think we have the best chance at getting a surprise W. Expectations have a lot to do with it.
going to cincy, our guys will vent some frustrations, then decide it feels good to score points and our rookie recievers will play a much bigger role by the years end... opening up our offense more and we will score points.
philly will come in and look anemic. their D will hold us to several field goals, though..... then SF comes in and gets routed as we try to will ourselves into the wildcard spot with 10 wins.

Skins finish 13-3 period. That was my prediction before the season and I'm sticking with it.
