Latest reports sound like the rain will hold off. Unfortunately that means better field conditions for the Falcons duo, and harder for our secondary to have any chance of slowing them down.

For me the keys to the game include winning the turnover battle, playing aggressively (not accepting long fg tries, going on 4th at some points in the game, etc), and 3rd down conversions.

Both teams are good at protecting the ball, and both have scored from their defense. I see this as a place where Griffin will make the big difference. As long as he doesn't fumble, he has shown he doesn't make many bad reads. I do worry about a Mike Nolan schemed defense so Griffin needs to bring his best today.

Ultimately, as in the prediction thread, I see this as a game where the last team with the ball, wins the game.

Seems that everyone is expecting the Falcons to roll the Redskins easily.

Which makes it even better. They seem to play better when everyone counts them out.

We'll put up points. Gonna have to win in shoot-out style.

Nobody thought we could win week 1 either.

I don't really understand that. Atlanta is good, very good, but they gave up a lot of points to both KC and Carolina, so I think we ought to be able to keep up. The problem as everyone knows, is that our defense needs to show that they aren't just a sieve.

every year there are surprise victories... this is going to have to be one of those if we want to be 3-2 on monday. it can happen, but i wouldn't put money on the skins this week.
