We will easily beat Stl

skinsfaninok · 09-14-2009, 01:57 AM

After watching our game for the second time, I noticed that we just had simple mistakes that will be corrected. Don't give up just yet the giants are a real good team, jc has to get his mechanics right, holding the ball low is just dumb. Hey we started out 0-1 last yr. It's a long season we should be fine.

itvnetop · 09-14-2009, 02:23 AM

I think we should be able to win by at least three TDs... but I thought that last season against them also. They looked horrible against Seattle yesterday, so let's hope some of the momentum the Skins built with that last drive carries over.

skinsfaninok · 09-14-2009, 03:19 AM

Yea I agree, but in the NFL you can't take teams for granted. I just want to see an easy win for once... It's like every game is a grind for us no matter who we play.

Not touching this one. lol.

We SHOULD be able to beat most of our opponents. Looking at the stats page on NFL.com (I am not a stat-ition) we didn't play bad, we just played inconsistent. I didn't look at anything on the defensive side, but I'm sure we were top ten. STL is going to catch hell. Clinton always seems to run hard after a sub-100 game.

JC- 10th overall QB rating
CP- 13th overall rushing yards with 3.9 average
Randle El- 8th in receiving yards.

Im not getting overconfident, did that last yr when we played the Rams. I told everyone this would be a game that we would win by 20+, loooooong day at work the next day.

I couldn't agree more. I think we're one of a handful of teams in the league that will absolutely disappoint you when it comes to playing a team they SHOULD beat. It's been a really long time since I've just been able to enjoy watching the Skins rip a team a new one. Maybe it was the drubbing of the Lions in 2005 or 2006? Even our certain wins I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for some alien to fall on Jason Campbell causing a fumble only to magically land in the other team's hands.

I think the Skins will bounce back strong against a very weak Rams team.

mredskins · 09-14-2009, 08:50 AM

In all reality they have too. IF they lose this game the wheels are really going to come off the bus.

Paintrain · 09-14-2009, 08:51 AM

I'd expect for the next 4-5 weeks we're going to be feeling very different emotions than we are this morning. We should go on a nice run for the next month or so barring anything unforseen. It's not a must win but it's a 'better win' for them.

Not to rain on your parade there, but should keep in mind that there are still 2 games yet to be played in week 1.

Brady playing against Buffalo and Rivers playing against Oakland. You can expect JC to drop at least 2 spots.

And then there is Tomlinson, Taylor, McFadden and Maroney still needing to play.

Portis averaged 3.9 ypc on 16 attempts. That is very average and well below what we normally see CP attaining.

When Washington came out of the gates at 6-2 last season, Portis was getting well over 20 touches per game, which helped Campbell out tremendously. 16 attempts in a game for a RB like Clinton Portis is unacceptable.

TheMalcolmConnection · 09-14-2009, 09:15 AM

It's true he was getting lots of touches, but jeezus last year at least they weren't as predictable as yesterday.

Did Snyder straight up tell Zorn to not let Campbell throw the ball? At some points I was like WTF?!

dmek25 · 09-14-2009, 09:19 AM

no game is a given with our redskins. remember what Pete Kendall did in last years Rams game? to me, a win is a win. ill take them any way they come. and good morning Malcolm

schndr_tdd · 09-14-2009, 09:19 AM

Give Campbell a chance to prove he cant cut it!!!!At least let him air it out to give Portis a chance to breath.

Chico23231 · 09-14-2009, 09:24 AM

We better beat them.
