Redskins vs. Seahawks Preview

As some have already posted, Seattle is a mystery team because they are so inconsistent. As a consequence I don't feel comfortable making any sort of prediction, I want the Skins to win of course. Our offense needs to show us something though, we really need to get the running game going. It would be nice to see what our Defence could do if we played with

1) the Lead

2) running game, D not on the field for most of the game

Still the win in Dallas was amazing and shows this team has a lot of heart, which I will give Joe Gibbs 100% credit for the fact that the Redskins have heart again. Watching the Oakland - Philly game brought back a lot of painfull memories of the Norval era.

Well its finally time for me to focus on Seattle. To be honest, I look at this game as a must win. I think Seattle is a very average team, that we need to beat at home. Looking down our schedule i see this as a game we have to have. The Seahawks are not a very good road team, and we should be able to run on them quite a bit. Shaun Alexander is the vocal point of their offense, and I think if we stop him, we win the game. With our run defense, I really think we can force the game into the hands of Matt Hasslebeck. I think Hasslebeck is pretty good, but we should cover their crappy recivers like a blanket. I like the Skins in this one, and I think its one we need.

I agree that stopping alexander is absoluetly key to this game. Their passing game can still be very dangerous though. Nothing hurts a running team like putting up points on them early.

I see Seattle's blocking being better for running. I think we can put a lot of pressure on Hasselbeck this week.

And ANY pressure on Hasselbeck = INTs.

He loves to force the ball.
