Seahawks Redskins Rookie Showdown

I don't expect our offense to put up a lot of points. Seattle just hasn't allowed it in any of their games. The most they have allowed is 28 points, but generally they have allowed in the teens. And they won't be unprepared for our offense, they held Carolina and SF to 12 and 13 points respectively. And they only gave up 23 to NE. We need to figure out how Miami and Detroit scored 24 and 28. I definitely think we need to be able to score 21 or more points to win the game.

Exactly what I was thinking, around low 20's like 21 or 24. But that defense does play differently on the road, obviously the home field advantage has a lot to do with teams not being able to score on them.

Another thing in our favor, RG3 has another week to heal and get that knee better.

I wonder if we'll see the removal of the brace. I keep wondering how long he needs to wear that if he's past the healing time for that type of sprain.

The best thing about our offense, which is awesome by the way, is that we can and do attack all the areas of the field. This game may very well be dominated by mid length passes, which means the TE's and Morgan/Moss should have big games and if they do, we will win.

Another point of similarity is turnovers. We are +17 (31 takeaway/14 giveaways), they are +14 (31/18).

These two teams are so similar it is amazing. And both young. Remember, we took Trent Williams, they took Okung. and both have built up in similar manners. I doubt this is the last playoff meeting between these two teams.

I was thinking that the Griffin/Wilson match-up could be the next Brady/Manning rivalry. Since we will be winning the division for the foreseeable future, they could meet up regularly if Seattle does the same.

NFC East division champs
5-1 in the division
STILL Awesome :):food-smil:headbange

I think a real X Factor here is MS. I am hoping his playoff experience trumps Pete Carroll.

Seattle is really similar to us But they have more talent overall IMO. I still think we win at home, Griffin will have a great first playoff game and we'll force Wilson into a couple ints

I think the Seahacks trip up and we roll right over them.

Pete Carroll is 0-3 (http://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/CarrPe0.htm)(2 losses with the Patriots, 1 with the Seahawks) in NFL away playoff games. I would really love the Skins to trounce him.

Shanahan has obviously won a few home games along the way.

How will Wilson handle the Fedex crowd noise? Should be interesting.

Well, he only won because he had a future HOF quarterback and had managed to find a premier running back in the late rounds of the draft.

Oh, wait ...
