The only game I'm ever going to pick the Skins to lose this season is against Seattle (In which we'll get our asses kicked clear across Washington State)
Skins win.
Skins 24
Jags 17
That will be an ass kicking from ocean to ocean then since Seattle is a home game.

I think the Skins win this one. I think the turnovers get cleaned up and we finish this one off.
Skins -17
Jags- 13

I'm guessing there are no professional motivational speakers here on the WP. Im changing my original prediction of 20-6 Skins to 21-5 Skins. :oink:

This is the type of game we usually lose, not feeling entirely optimistic.
I hate to say it, but any game is the type of game we usually lose.
I really wont be surprised win or lose. Complete toss up imo. If we crush em ill feel a lot better about this year though.

No mistakes and we win. No mistakes and we win. The oline has it easy this week give me a break.

I'm not going to try to pick any games yet because anything could happen with this team. They have enough talent to beat just about anybody but they also can blow any game due to their propensity to make egregious mistakes.
In the Houston game, the Redskins looked sickeningly like the 2013 team. I'm hoping to see a new, improved 2014 Redskins team soon but I'm not counting on it.
I tend to be optimistic about the Skins but they are going to have prove themselves to me this time around. I'm just sick and tired of losing games we could have won because we committed multiple turnovers. Before you ask me how I can be so negative after just one game, let me explain that I view the Houston loss as simply an extension of the poor play that cost us dearly in 2013. To me, this team is no better than the 2013 team until they can fix the problems that killed us last season.

I really don't see how you compare last year's team with last week's game. IMO, the problems last year, especially on ST, was piss poor tackling, and lack of effort. Sunday we saw a ST and Defense vastly improved in tackling and effort plays. There were botches that totaled 8 points, and that can't keep happening but play in play out the effort and solid tackles were there.
On offense, the Redzone issues might remain, but we don't know because 3 key players fumbled at three key times(I am counting Morris' non-fumble, because that was inside the 10 as well). I still haven't seen Paul's fumble so I don't know how it occurred, but the Griffin/Morris exchange obviously just can't happen.
So instead of looking incompetent and non-competitive, they certainly looked like they were playing hard. Now, stupid mistakes, that's been every year, even in 2012 I remember early games where the Skins made you shake your head. One day maybe that won't happen any more, but it's been a long time since we have seen bonehead free play for a season. Heck we can always remember Gus Frerotte if we needed to go back to demonstrate how long it's been going on. :(

The Eagles rolled 34 points on these bums in a half. If they did it then why can't we?
