Eagles vs Skins Pre Game/ Predictions

Huh .. my post? Im confused

Me too. I don't read it as anybody saying that the idea that the Redskins can win is crazy.

And yes guys, the oddsmakers have us as the worst team in the division. Our over/under number is 7.5. It's 8.5 for the Eagles. Vegas views Philly as the ever so slightly better team.

When the line was published initially, we were favorites by 1.5. Now a lot of money has come in on the Eagles so the line has moved to pick em.

It is a coin flip game.

Nobody is saying there's no hope, or that it's a crazy notion that we could win. I think we'll win a hard fought battle, myself.

It's not like we're favored by 9 and fans are picking the Eagles here. It's a pick em.

NM guys, I didn't realize this was so hard lol

I was simply responding to Meks saying he wasn't optimistic about the Skins winning, and others have predicted a double digit loss

24-10 Skins

I have NO idea what to expect. I hope we win.... but im noy THAT optimistic.

Redskins 31
Eagles 13

Redskins go up early 17-0 and finally don't take their foot off the gas for a game

Cousins: 24/30 306 yards 2 TDs
Crowder 7 catches 116 yards 1TD

Its a toss up for me, 50/50 .. I just think the offense could come out rusty, timing off on timing routes.

Probably going to come down to what happens on the last possession for the losing team.

Any trick plays w Pryor tossing one? A la portis or Antwan?

56-0 Skins

Cousins -- 28/33, 375 yards, 3 TDs (1 rushing)
Pryor -- 1/1, 7 yards, 1 TD (to Doctson); 11 rec, 125 yards, 2 TDs
Doctson -- 8 rec, 103 yards
Crowder -- 5 rec 65 yards; 2 return TDs
C. Thompson -- 5 rec, 75 yards
Gallette -- 2 sacks, 1 FF
Kerrigan -- 2 sacks, 1 INT for TD
J. Allen -- 1.5 sacks
R. Anderson -- 1.5 sacks
Norman -- 2 INT
Fat Rob -- 120 yards, 1 TD
Samaje Perine -- 65 yards (knocks out a blitzing Fletcher Cox)

Doesn't hurt to dream.

Sigh.

OK -- for real, 27-24 Skins, blocked FG at the end of regulation seals it.

Ooh blocked FG? I was in the stands for this legendary sequence:

Eagles 31 skins 17 ....

I mean on one hand, you have the Redskins 5 game winning streak against the Eagles. On the other hand, I don't think the Redskins have won a season opener under Gruden. One or the other has to end. I hope it's the season opener streak, but based off past season openers I'd give 60/40 odds to the Eagles.

last time we opened with them,they beat the hell out of us on mondaynight.scored on the 2nd play of the game.i bet we get beat bad,
