Giants Pre Game Thread (Version1)

I'm only concerned about how we play and not about the schedule. Right now, the Skins have not shown that they can be consistent enough win 11 games. All of this talk of winning 11 games will vanish if we lose to the Giants tomorrow.

From that standpoint the Redskins doesn't look like an 11 wins team, I agree.

Add to that a big part of 4-2 are back to back wins where the outcome was in doubt down to the final seconds and the offense is relying quite a bit on a 33 year old running back.

Because its Gruden and he feels like he needs to get the passing game going. Like i said it's more the nervous nellie or debbie downer part that just doesn't trust Grudens coaching

I think you have good reason not to trust Gruden's decision-making. Add to that we don't know how Manusky will game plan and call plays against the Giants.

I'd like to think that our coaches were developing a "formula" for winning that creates a team "identity" but I don't. We don't have a team "identity" and I don't trust our coaches to find and stick with what works for us.

Make no mistake, this is a critical game for the direction our season will take from here on. It is a defining game for both our players and our coaches.

From Keim:

Without CB Quinton Dunbar, the Redskins will be short-handed vs. a strong receiving corps. It's not just Odell Beckham, either. Sterling Shepard has caught 36 passes for 508 yards and two touchdowns. Shepard does a good job creating separation. Shepard, Beckham and tight end Evan Engram can pose problems for any pass defense, especially one without a starting corner. Fabian Moreau has played well in the slot and, last week, was on the outside in the base defense. They'll need backup Greg Stroman to play well in three-receiver sets.

a healthy Chris Thompson makes all the difference, big reason we tanked end of last year. hope he can rev up the offense
