Re: Dallas Score Predictions

I think this game will prove how good our defense is because I dont think we deserve the 1# defense title until we show it against a worthy offense.

Re: Dallas Score Predictions

I think this is going to be a low scoring game, for the Redskins to win, Dallas will have to be held to two touchdowns or less. I cannot get a good feel for this game and I think that the Skins are going to have to play flawlessly to win, which is going to make it difficult for them to win.

Until we see consitent performance and scoring from the offense it is hard to say otherwise, our current track record on offense has been one of low scoring and scoring less than 21 pts a game. I think it is a lot to ask of the Skins to play flawlessly, but until the offense gets its act together that is going to be the case. The Redskins, cannot have turnovers, big penalities, or mistakes in the kicking game/special teams, also the running game will have to effective and Washington will have to control time of possesion. The Defence is going to have to shoulder the heavy burden, of not giving up any big plays down field, or committing penalties to give the Cowboys second chances. My big fear is that the defence will get worn down from being on the field and give up the one big play to the Cowboys.

I am going to be an fan, though, cannot pick the Cowboys

Redskins 16 3 FG, Portis breaks one for a TD
Cowboys 14 Bledsoe 1 TD 3 INTS, Dallas D returns Brunell pick for TD

The kid from Maryland becomes a hometown hero, which could prove lucrative look at what Jess Atkins parlayed his Redskins job into being a sports caster.

Ahead of Dallas, Giants and Eagles in both statistics.
SUNRA I suspect you posted what you posted because Beemnseven predicted a Cowboy victory. However I don't think you follow your own advice about demonstrating logic in your own post. You post does not have much logic to support the opinion that you state that the offense will be much improved and put up 31 points on the Cowboys. I think it is mostly wishful thinking on your part.

STPainmaker, gives a logical explanation of how Beemnseven could arrive at his prediction.

Given the recent history of the Redskins versus the Cowboys and Gibbs versus Parcells, it is easy to see why many fans do not feel confident about the Redskins winning, this does not make them anyless of fans. Nor does it make their posts not logical. Logically speaking, my thinking regarding this game is more along the lines of Beemsnseven. Being a fan though, I predicted a low scoring Redskins victory, and the logic behind it.

There have been calls for unity amongst those of us who form Redskin Nation, and I agree. I even made an effort to honor the original poster's request to not mention the QB issue. I know I have posted some inflammatory remarks in other threads becuase I was angry with the choice for I thought, here we go again, last years ugly offense all over again. I am probably skirting the line with that last comment and my prediction of a Brunell INT returned for a Dallas TD. With that said I am not going to post anything more about Brunell in this thread.

How do you figure? I was born in this area, but at an early stage in life my father decided that our family needed to go back to his roots and move to Maine. As a consequnce I became a big Red Sox fan, and even after moving back to the DC area have remained a Red Sox fan since DC did not have a baseball team in 1981 when we moved back.

I can tell you right now that I always have a sense of dread and apprehension when the Red Sox play the Yankees, and will often predict the Yankees to beat the Red Sox, it does not by any stretch of the imagination make me less of a Red Sox fan. I can tell you right now, when the Sox were down three games to none in the ALCS last year that I was not real confident with there chances especially after the Yankees won 19-8 in the second Boston Massacare. When the Sox won game four my feeling was, well at least they are putting up a fight and will not get swept, I did not like there chance until they won the fifth game, and even then I was pessimistic until the last game and Johnny Damon hit the grand slam.

Re: Dallas Score Predictions

i never understood how betting worked? what the hell does the over under have to do with anything? as for the topic at hand, our defense is good enough to keep opponents out of the endzone if, and only if, our opponents have a long drive ahead of them. but the reason our opponents score points is because they force turnovers in our side of the field. example: we would've shut out the bears if our special teams hadn't fumbled the ball in an easy spot for the bears to score. i think the real key isn't how good our defense performs, it's whether we turn the ball over in excellent position for the cowboys to score.

Thanks BrudLee.
Washington defense really hasn't been tested. Dallas got tested last week and stopped LT from reaching the century mark for rushing yards and all purpose yards. The bears offense is = to the redskins offense. Im not saying Dallas offense is = to the colts in anyway. Dallas offense can do some damage. No pierce like last year or Smoot.I didnt see washington play last week but I was expecting a little more than 3 fgs. I cant smoke anything right now. LOL. I see a lot of turnovers in this. so I will revise it and say final score Dallas 23 Washington 13

OK HaHaHa

Couldn't read more posts after this 1 you're really high to first believe that your offense can score 31 points to any team less the cowboys and after you only could put 9 last week.

Second you're proud of having the 16 offense IN YARDS but only score 3 field goals, I take our 4 td any day of the week, and 4 out of 4 in the redzone.

Now you have a good defense that played vs a really crapy Chicago offense you can't really think your D was really tested last week if you had held KC or IND to 6 points I would be jumping in your bandwagon But Chicago thats like saying the Giants are going to the SB after they humiliated Arizona come on

This will be a close game and will be hard hitting low scoring 1 but I haven't seen anything of your offense to believe that you could take this game and in Dallas sorry

We have some holes and rookies pn d and they will surrender a td to portis but we have 2 many options in offense as the Chargers found out Keyshawn,Glenn, Clayton, Witten, Jones and now Price just wonder who will be able to cover them we don't need a #1 receiver just playmakers and thats what we have

Dal 17
Skins 10

When someone claims to believe in their team and then predicts that teams defeat against their rivals is beyond comprehension. All the years that Boston loss, some peple never counted Boston out. It takes a bold person to route for your team inspite of the rival.

This could definitely be a big advantage for our D.

Anyone who thinks Bledsoe is going to have a repeat performance of his week 1 showing is sadly mistaken in my opinion.
I was kind of hopping Arrington might end Bledsoe NFL days!!!

Re: Dallas Score Predictions

My thought is Dallas 24 skin's 13

But this is a game we could actually win, I call it a culmination game, and that means everything that went on this week will culminate in a victory, the tension and controversy could serve to really focus us and some how squeek out a victory. I have a feeling we may score a couple of defensive TD's this game, Bledsoe is just the man for that.
