Re: Skins v Vikings predictions

I honestly think the Redskins finally put all three phases together this week and get their first home win in blowout style, heading into week 6 tied for first with all six division games left to be played.

Skins
> 40

Vikes
< 20

Re: Skins v Vikings predictions

Hope tells me we win. Reality says the opposite.

Mike and Kyle have struggled offensively when "limited" to a traditional pro scheme. Kyle's play-calling gets more predictable by the week just as we've seen over the last two years. Unless Haslett has an epiphany about running the 3-4 or we switch back to the 4-3 the defense will be garbage all season long.

So yeah, my gut is the Vikings shred us tomorrow on both sides of the ball. I hope RG3 is well protected and doesn't sustain even one big hit. That's all I'm focusing on until Mike and Kyle are gone, hoping RG3 stays healthy so the next coach walks into a franchise QB like Fisher was lucky enough to get this season.

Re: Skins v Vikings predictions

I'm always optimistic on Saturdays (then reality hits about 3 hrs after kickoff).

Redskins 37
Vikings 24

Banks finally breaks one for a score, D-Hall picks off Ponder twice and the Skins only commit 3 penalties (they're KILLING me with the penalties this year).

HAIL!!

So let me get this straight - if we beat the other team by 13 points and you will be even more mad??

Please Admins, can we get a peer reviewed system of flagging overly pessimistic/optimistic posters so it's easier to create ignore lists.

Re: Skins v Vikings predictions

Ok, so this being the first time "EVER" at a Skins game, and first time "EVER" at FedEx, first time "EVER" going to a NFL/Skins game with my oldest son, his first time "EVER" going to a NFL/Skins game, I'm going to predict a win. Plus the team is about due for a home win based off averages.

Skins: 34
Vikes: 24

I'm soooooooo excited!

There. Now he can't be mad.

Or maybe he'll be mad because the Skins allowed 3 points. Or maybe we didn't score enough points!

The amount of firsts in there has to be a harbinger of awesomeness, I hope you have a great time and that you're overestimating the score by at least 10 points for the Vikings.

HTTR!

Seems like the majority of people on this site are one or the other. Do you want to ignore everyone? LOL.

Alls I know is, if Joe Webb has to enter the game, Jim Haslett better be prepared for his scrawny ass. #bittermemories

Re: Skins v Vikings predictions

I'm worried about blocking Jared Allen and Co. We need to run the zone-read enough to screw with the defense, but when the D blitzes their ends it results in RG3 getting clobbered. I'm worried that unless Kerrigan or another LB can consistently get pressure, Ponder's going to look really good against us.

Hope we pound them with Morris & Co., and at least stuff their run.

27-14, Skins. :crossfingers
