WEEK 1 : Redskins vs Dolphins Prediction Thread

It's that time ladies and gentlemen. Time to get our hopes up and predict blowouts! I actually see us playing well, but won't be able to run the ball much which will force Jay to become 1 dimensional.

Their O line is pretty banged up. I think we can get to the their QB and be stout against the run.

I think our D keeps it close and allows our play calling to be balanced.

Can't wait for Alf and Jones to split carries. Alf will be so much fresher in the second half compared to the last couple of years. Before the end of the year Jones takes an opposing defender out of a game.

Really wish we had a 280lb TE to put on the right side. Not sure how that's going to turn out.

If Kirk can survive the first half, hopefully our RB can wear them out. I believe we will run better in the 2nd half than we will the 1st. We have to keep pounding it with Alf, Jones, and DY.

Matt Jones is not Roy Helu!

We win a close one.

21-17 skins. I think they win opener at home.

Boooo.

You have plenty of time to get crushed. At least wait till week 2!

Dolphins 27, Skins 13. Agree Bucket, running will be tough, leading to more pressure on Kirk and interceptions. Plus Dolphins have a good QB and it's looking like we will once again have a piss poor secondary, especially with Breeland out.

redskins 492, dolphins -3

I'm never wrong.

I have no prediction. I just want to see a competitive team that plays hard, gets steadily better, and finishes with a better record than last season. I'm hoping for 8-8. Anything better than 8-8 would be awesome!

31-24 skins. Kirk has 0 ints and proves he put the work in this off season.

Redskins 28
Dolphins 16

Morris and Jones combine for 175 yards and 2 TDs
Cousins hits Jackson for a 60 yard bomb early in the second,

And then we lose 15 straight a la the 2001 Panthers

Running game will consume the clock, defense will surprise, skins win.
