Redskins/Giants Opening Day Predictions

Redskins 28
Douche Bags 16

Skins win 24-13

What I think will happen:

Campbell throws for more than 250 yards and a score
Kelly goes for 50 plus yards
Portis gets over 80 yards with at least 1 score
Defense gets at least 3 sacks and at least 1 pick
Cooley and Moss catch 5 plus balls each
Horton leads the team in tackles


What I hope happens:

Paynesworth puts an end to Eli's day, but only after he throws 2 INTs
Landry gets revenge on Jacobs by knocking his helmet off and his lights out
Portis takes one 75 yards to paydirt
Campbell connects on an 80 yard bomb to Santata

I like both scenarios but prefer the 2nd. :woot:

Tough one to call. The Giants are better in the trenches but losing Alford hurts. They manhandled us w/out Burress and Osi at Fed Ex last year. Is an out of shape Haynesworth going to make a difference in the first game? I don't think so. I think the offense will score a little more but NY wins a close one 20-17.

Portis in the last 4 games vs. Giants:

-- 83 carries, 292 yards (3.51 avg) and 2 TDs. He hasn't put 100 or more on the Giants since the second game in '07.

Campbell in the last 4 games vs. Giants:

-- Completed 58% of his passes, 194 YPG, 4 TDs, 2 INTs, sacked 6 times.

Not too bad, but we need big games from both of these guys to have a chance.

I have a feeling it's going to take a few weeks for our offense to get on track, so I'll say 30-16 Giants. I'd love to be wrong ... But the Giants have had our number recently winning 5 of the last 6.

Giants 21 skins 17.

I just don't think our offense is up to snuff. That Giants Dline will eat up our Oline.
I'll go opposite, i say the Giants D-Line doesn't get the penetration they are expecting. O-Line stands up well and JC starts off slowly but warms up by the 2nd quarter. Redskins in a convincing victory

Yes they have Beemnseven, but it's time to RECTIFY. I think they're going to be surprised by what we do and Eli and his receivers have'nt been looking so hot. Can't wait. A good start to the season would be great.

I don't see the Giants scoring anywhere near 30 points. Weren't the Skins the last team in the league to give up 30 points last year? And it was in the last game of the season, I believe. I may be way off. The D will be better this year.

I agree, the Skins just dont have enough on O.
