Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I was torn on this one. I wanted to say 6-0 based on the overall team effort yesterday at Dallas, but to be "realistic" I chose 5-1 thinking we'll either lose this week at Tampa Bay, or against Dallas at the end of the year. I think a lot will depend on injuries and guys coming back from injuries, but if we can squeak out a win at Tampa Bay this week I may change that to 6-0.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
My orig. season W-L prediction for us was 9-7. So, here's what I think will happen for the remainder of the year:
Bucs-W Bills-L Bears-W Giants-L Vikings-W Cowboys-W

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
3-3, if Dallas is resting its starters in the final game; otherwise 2-4.
I'll actually feel like 7-9/8-8 would be decent progress given the injuries and JC's inexperience... |

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
A said 4-2 but it could be better if Sean Taylor returns soon.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
The 'Skins should have played EVERY game this year as if it were their last. Yes, they played very well yesterday. But you just never know which team will show up week in, week out. let's hope they keep rolling and avoid further injuries and get some injured players back in the mix.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
IF we DO NOT have the lead going into the half, they may be able to pull out some more W's

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
Recall the playoff game where Taylor was ejected. Before the ejection, Tampa got nothing beyond 10-12 yards in their passing game. After that, they continually had chances downfield. This is the type of game where if we get a lead, Gibbs/Saunders must go for the blowout to take a defensive secondary breakdown out of the equation of a win or loss.

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I said 4-2.
Wins against: Tampa, Buffalo, Chicago and Minnesota Losses against: NYG and Dallas Could be 3-3 if we lose next week. I'm also not sure how much Dallas will play their starters in the last week of he season- pure speculation now but...

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
Does anyone really know when we get Randy Thomas back? That really could make a difference. If anything, maybe down the streach it will make Joe Gibbs go for it on 4th and 1 more often. (I am still frustrated by the decision to attempt a 50 yard FG.)

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I think 3-3. Gibbs 2.0 has a pretty lame record after Nov 1 and I just dont this year being any different.
Win: Buf, Chi, Min Lose: TB, NYG, Dal |

Re: 6 games to go... predict the stretch run
I say 3-3 at best, but it doesn't really matter.
If we lose to TB this week we are done. There is no way we'll get a wild card spot with a 3-4 record against NFC teams and 1-3 against NFC east so far, all the tiebreakers will go against us even if we end up 9-7. |
