Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I said 4-2 which leaves at 9-7 and possibly in the playoffs... That would be amazing if it were to happen.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
Based on the first ten games, I'm going with 3-3, but it could be as high as 5-1 if they can actually play a few games where both sides of the ball are clicking on all cylinders.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
4-2 and the Skins narrowly miss the playoffs. And while I wouldn't discount a great run by this team, the way things are breaking down, it's going to be at least 10 wins to make the playoffs, if not 11.
While 9-7 doesn't sound like an accomplishment, it's a 4 game swing from last season, and only the 2nd second season better than .500 since 1999. Something to hang the old hat on moving forward. Don't get me wrong, I will be greatly disappointed if the Skins don't make the playoffs...just have to take things into perspective sometimes.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I think it could be a repeat of 05, they may lose the next one or the last game of the year, but I believe the Skins will win 5 of the final 6. The Bills, Bears, Giants and Vikes should all be W's. They'll either lose to the Boys or the Bucs, but they'll go 10-6

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
4-2 is definitely possible, at worst I think 3-3.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
2-4, 3-3 at best. We're an inconsistent team. We play up and down to competition, we force games that shouldn't to stay close. While this week was a good showing by the team, I still don't think we're good enough to do much. I doubt we end above .500.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
4-2.. Wins at TB, vs. Buffalo, vs. Chicago, vs. Dallas.. Losses at NYG and at Minn.. The 2nd half hinges on the TB game..

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I think we make the 05 run again and will pick 5-1 and even maybe 6-0.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
That was my recipe for the playoffs after the Philly loss. I pretty much accepted that yesterday would be a loss going in, but the way the team played, I feel even more strongly that 4 wins against your listed opponents is very achievable.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
Agreed. I'm thinking the same thing. However, we could beat Dallas in week 17. If we still win those other 4 games, that'll put us at 10-6 and most likely into the playoffs.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
Despite playing well against Dallas I really only think we will go 3-3 for the rest of the season. Are injury report has to be one of the longest in the league and it grows every game. We are just never going to get anywhere while half of our starters are injured, and we have all seen the depth we have at some of our positions. Next week we play Tampa and I believe ST is supposed to miss that game too, that could be bad considering Joey Galloway is a huge deep threat that always seems to get overlooked by everyone.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
3-3 to finish 8-8. The bottom line is we are just an average football team.
