you play detriot 3-5 and carolina 6-2
9-7 combined

Eagles play 1-7 greebay and 5-2 falcons(w/o eagle game)
combined 6-9

Giants play 3-5 vikings and 2-7 Saints
combined 5-12

This shows that we have the hardest schedule in the division, please know what your are saying before you say it.

Big C · 11-07-2005, 02:33 PM

we have already got the toughest part of our scheduel behind us...3 division games of course, plus seahawks, broncos, and chiefs. in those games, we were 3-3, not bad.

i can see us going 10-6 or 11-5 now

but lets see

I opened this thread talking about the remaining games and how i thought the Skins would do in them. To clarify - the skins have the easiest schedule in their REMAINING GAMES.

Skins remaining opponents record: 34-31
Cowboys remaining opponents record: 39-25
Eagles remaining opponents record: 40-29
Giants remaining opponents record: 35-29

I'll try and keep it simple for you next time.

This all sounds great on papper ( ha ha ha

), but we will take it one game at a time. i'll leave the prognostication to you. we will play the game. the 49ers beat this team but gruden is a good coach.after the giant's game, i just focus on the game at hand.thank you for acknowledgement of the teams hard work but for me i realize we can beat anyone and be beatin by anyone.zeroiing in on the buc's.

I like football. You folks are good and knowledgeable about the game. I go to a lot of other fan sites, but I submit to few of them.

What's wrong with having a fave team but loving the game?

Jerry doesn't send me any cheques, and i have as much to do with the 5 rings that the cowboys franchise earned as the Cowboys have to do with my recent two goal performance in Mens League Hockey.

I think the Skins are the most Dangerous team in the East right now. Especially for the Cowboys. We have a win over the other two. I just don't see The giants keeping this roll going.

BSB, I was being a bit of an a$$. My Bad.

I agree about the Giants. Plaxico isn't anywhere near the threat everyone talks about him being. He's for jump balls ONLY.

Nobody on that Defense except Strahan scares me at the least.

I appreciate that the numbers have it looking a bit easier, and we do have 2 of the division games at home. BUT--I believe that any week, we can come out flat and lose; any week, we can look great. So much is momentum, confidence, and the breaks in a particular game. Seems to me that really what you have is parity, which is as it should be. The division is wide open, and it's anyones to win. And I sure wouldn't count out the iggles.

Every game is going to be a dogfight, most likely.

we're OK.
The giants do however scare me, they do have playmakers, Plexico has been great this year and is a big tall target, Shockey as much as i do hate him can be amazing at times, eli is doing very well this year and is seriously a top QB in this conferense, Tiki has learned how to hold on to the ball and is having a great year, but defensively there is only strahan.

I hate taking a team out but really 4 losses is huge for the eagles. 10-6 is just breaking the playoffs this year as a wildcard, if they lose once to the giants and once to the redskins or cowboys they are in serious trouble. Not that this is a three way race but i just think it will be tough for the eagles because the teams in this division have the power to shut them out of the playoffs

strahan and pierce scare me

emmons is solid also, when healthy :frusty: brent alexander is a hard hitter who can derail you

thats about it tho :headbange

The only thing I know about the Skins remaining schedule, is that they are good enough to play with any one. How many will they win? That is what we will all watch and find out together. I don't see another Giant-type "let down" the rest of the year happening. Fumbles and turnover, yes. We seem to be bitten by that too much this year, but major "let down".... no way.

steveo395 · 11-07-2005, 07:56 PM

we've only played one bad team in these first 8 games and we destroyed them. Our second half schedule is easier, so we should be able to go 5-3 or 6-2 in this half. That would make us 10-6 or 11-5, but we could also still blow it because we're the redskins. We've gone 7-1 and missed the playoffs
