Re: Don's Crystal Ball Week 1 Picks

Has Don ever picked the Skins over the Cowboys?

have you ever picked the skins to win against the cowboys? im just wondering b/c you take gambling very seriously, seem to have your system for it but then when it comes to the skins v boys, you seem to turn into a typical fan picking your team.

for the past 3 years or so I have been on here, I cant remember a time when you picked the skins to win against the boys. do you just throw out your system and methods of deciding games when it comes to the skins v boys?

also i dont know about taking the over in the ravens jets game. i dont gamble much so Im going off gut feelings but I dont see a high scoring game unless both defenses cause serious tunrovers and scores for themselves.
Yes I've picked the redskins over the Cowboys many times I at least did it once or twice in the past 3 years. One thing about the Redskins and Cowboys is that it doesn't matter who's having a good season those game are always hard, close and almost always low scoring.

Trust me when Dallas was going into the 5-11 seasons I rarely pick them to win you just have to take every season differently, That's why I say that this season turns out like I see it 2011 the NFC East it's going to be crazy hard.

In my Season prediction I went 1-1 in the matchups between Dallas and Washington it usually goes that way, well recently. I would had pick you guys this week at home but the McNabb injury and the fact that it's the first game with new HC, new defense, injured QB... add if you like the problems at backfield and WR. I just couldn't

Now the MNF game Baltimore vs Jets it has to do with both teams and coaches liking the spotlight. The Ravens and Jets usually score high on MN and the ravens also usually score high on week 1. That's why

Re: Don's Crystal Ball Week 1 Picks

1. Week 1 matters exactlly as much as any other week does. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool.

2. In a 16-game season, each week equals 6.25% of a team's final record. In an 18-game season, each week equals 5.56% of a team's final record. So, the difference isn't all that much and an 18-game season would not make many of the weeks of the season into meaningless games - - - unless of course the team you follow sucks donkey balls and goes into December with a 3-9 record...

Love it when someone calls out when I get something wrong, likeoo they imagine someone is going to get everything right.

Also calling me on the over who really expected that game to be low scoring please.... and at the end I got the game and spread right so 2 out of 3 pretty good.

1.- I just gave you and actual stat like I said losing week 1 won't prevent you to make the playoffs but if you follow history only 7 teams that lost their week 1 game have gone out to win the Superbowl. That's a reality.

2.- Every year at least 1 team clinches home field advantage or their best possible position by week 15 so some teams have nothing to play for by week 16 and rest starters you saw it last year with the colts and Bengals playing vanilla giving the chance to the Jets to make the playoffs and another team miss it.

but hey if you want to pay for season tickets and see backups play the game either your team or opponents with 3 games to play it's your decision. Also you will complain the year the redskins are left out of the playoffs because another team rest their starters and help that team make the playoffs and your team left out.
