Hate loving this team. You never know week to week.
Exactly, it is pointless making predictions. One week the Skins look like contenders, then they lay an egg the next. They played well against the Lions, but as usual were the ones making the mistakes, which cost them. Our big play makers aren't making plays, even though we seem to have found a great QB in Kirk. That is the fault of the offensive game plan for the most part. This team needs consistency from everyone involved in order to find a groove and ride it into the playoffs. The team in still a bit too inconsistent to predict victory over all but the weakest of teams.

Is Josh for sure out?

I thought the NFL concussion protocol meant a 2 week absence for a player. Be thankful it means he is only out for one game. We can still win this one, but Barry better blitz Dalton often, as Dalton isn't nearly as elusive as Stafford, so if he does we will do well.
Joe Barry still sucks. I dont think we beat them.

If anyone had the book on Dalton. It's Jay Gruden.
I look for us to destroy the Bengals this week after letting one slip away last week. Kirk is doing some crazy sleep therapy to prepare for the game. Dude is nuts when it comes to preparation.
Kirk throws 4 TD. We win by 2 TD

I predict to be there 😁
I'll be there too! Let's cheer loud enough to make this one feels like a home game for our Skins !!!
I'll admit I'm not very confident about this one. It's winnable, but defenitely not an easy one.
Reasons to believe:
-They barely beat the Jets (I watched the game, the Jets shot themselves in the foot with missed fieldgoals and extra points), only other wins came against the Dolphins and the Browns AT HOME ! I know technically this is a "home" game for them, but we all know this is a road game for both teams. I'll add I have NEVER meet a Bengals fan in France, while I know a Skins fan or too (my signature is not accurate at all ^^).
-They got blasted by the Cowboys, the same team we should have beaten, baring KC's brain fart at the end of the game.
-Average defense (15th ovr, 12th pass) weak against the run (24th)
Reasons to be scared:
-AJ Green.
-Injuries. A lot on our side. Only a few on their side.

Thanks, this will be my very first live NFL game, I'm so pupped! HTTR, a win on Sunday would be a beautiful gift! My fiancee doesn't know a thing about football, but I already taught her the Skins fight song, WE ARE READY :-)

Thanks a lot! It'll be my second game in London (Chargers and Saints in 2008) but my first Skins game. Also bringing the fiancee who already knows a tad ;)

Appears like the Bengals O line has been a problem for them so far this year. Now, their best lineman LT Whitworth (3rd best tackle per PFF) is in concussion protocol from last weeks game and may (should) miss the London game. They are talking about moving journeyman Eric Winston from RT to LT with reserve tackle Jake Fisher (who has struggled) taking over at RT. Winston replaced RT Ogbuehi 2 weeks ago as the starting RT bc apparently Ogbuehi is really bad.
I really hope we exploit this weakness like we did with the Eagles and Lane. It sounds like like they will be shuffling guys around.
