3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

1. We lose the game
2. We win the game, but our decimated line leads to a substantial Jason Campbell injury - just as bad as a loss.
3. We lose and Campbell gets hurt.


I know we face the possibility of losing our QB every week, just like any team, but because of the current state of our line, it is more of a concern, IMO

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

I think the injuries to the line this past weekend are not as bad as we are fearing. I think the fear of further injury due to the bad weather was more of an issue than the actual injury.

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

I think SS makes a great point about the sloppy field.

Wade was able to come back, so he can't be dinged up too badly.

Heyer's injury looked the worst, though it was a concern that Rabach couldn't come back since he can usually play through most minor injuries. Bubba seemed optimistic about Rabach coming back so we'll see.

Do you wake up in the morning in think of every possible bad thing that could happen? I'm not saying you should be a flaming optmist, but seriously... try and at least stay neutral. How about you change the thread title to:

Three "Scenario's" for Sunday. But don't just leave it at that, because that's kind of boring. No-one cares about random scenario. Maybe defend why you think each scenario is likely, use stats, use history... something.

Like

1) We get more injuries to the O-line, we lose the game. Typical worse case scenario

Reason: With our decimated o-line Joe Gibbs is going to force someone in that clearly isn't ready. He'll over compensate, and possibly hurt something else forcing a horrible back up who has little experience. Jason Campbell looks like a rookie again, and starts throwing picks. He is a young QB after all, we should expect this.

2) Our o-line stays healthy, but is clearly over worked. Our running game is stifled, but Saunders implements a clever game plan to score 14 points. Our defense shuts down ARZ

Reason: Jason Campbell has been described as "poised" by so many. What better chance for him to show his virtue than when the o-line is faulty. Saunders starts to use draw plays, screen passes, and short hot routes to combat the blitz. Campbell has shown effective, or at least adequate against the blitz. We haven't really seen teams bring the house, and that may be the reason.

Yeah seriously could this thread be any more doom and gloom?

How about this scenario, Wade and Rabach are able to play, and we beat the Cards to move to 4-2.

This thread is pointless. I was expecting some kind of review of Sunday's game, not a voodoo prediction for the future.

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

How about CP is having his best game of the year and has something like 130 yards toward the end of the first half. We are down on the 5 yard line and Saunders and Gibbs are deciding on a play to run. Saunders calls down a passing play and gibbs say "No lets run CP because nothing can stop him". Just then a bus blows over CP over.

Haha, I can't wait to see that movie! "Nothing can stop this guy...BAM, bus blows him over".

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

I feel like we'll see the best running attack we've seen thus far this weekend. I think they'll attempt to run more than any teams we've gone against.

We shut that down, Rattay is in for a LOOOONG day.

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

I think you could turn those scenarios into a hit country-western song. I can hear the chorus now .... My quarterback got run over by a BIG OL' THANG.

Instead of worrying about losing and the safety of our QB, how about concentrating on the havoc our Redskins are going to inflict on our opposition. Come on Sellers, hit that hole again!

Ha,

My bad .. not trying to inflict any more misery - got plenty last Sunday. I do consider myself an optimist (maybe not so much by this thread) and think we will win as well --- i guess i am just scared by any QB behind a poor offensive line.

I love posting number 779 on this useless thread.

In other news:

1. I die
2. I die, and am forced to watch my entire family die as well.
3. I die, my family dies, and right before i go black, i see your dog shit on me.

Re: 3 different types of losses on Sunday
 

To prevent scenarios 2 & 3 (Campbell injury), Gibbs may start to deploy more max protect than we've seen all year. That could lead to low scoring (nothing new here) which might allow the Cards to hang around. I just can't see Rattay having any success against the Skins D. This could easily be a 17-3 kind of game, and yes, I'm optimistic that the Skins will win.
