thats my thinking too and it could get ugly since we are in dallas....
this is going to be a tough 2 weeks for the skins and we will find out real quick how far they have come in zorns offense and the overall scheme of things.

It will be a great game. Cowboys light it up for 10 points early and then start to bask in their own glory. Meanwhile, they also make some mistakes early in the game that allow the Skins to stay in it. 17-10 (Cowboys) at halftime. Cowboys stumble through the third quarter scoring three more while the skins offense finds its groove (and the end zone). 20-17 going into the fourth.

Fourth quarter fight - Skins continue their ground assult on a tired Cowboy defense but can't convert it into points. Cowboys start finding Witten down the seam and put the skins on their heals. First possession leads to a Cowboys field goal. Laron Landry finally gets tired of this, makes a quick break, and gets the crutial INT setting up the skins final TD.

Final score 24-23 skins.

HAIL!

I've been looking for pics of the scoreboard from that 2005 game. The only one I found was the one of Parcells (a classic) Thank you for posting that.

From my personal collection. Lucky enough to be at both games

I made the Bledsoe sackfest in '05, but I didn't get a chance to go last year. Just made the bears game last year.

skinsfan69 · 09-24-2008, 11:34 AM

Dallas is just too explosive on offense right now and I think their o-line handles our d-line.

Dallas 27
Wash 17

CP Reg · 09-24-2008, 11:40 AM

Howdy yalls! (I just talk like that to maintain the Texas stereotype. LOL)

I think my Cowboys have the better team. However, I'm about a million years old and hence know that talent levels seldom have any impact on a Redskins-Cowboys game.

3 weeks ago, I predicted a big win by the Cowboys. Now, however, I like (uhh...not really LIKE. LOL) the way the Skins offense is gelling. So, I'm still predicting a Cowboys victory, but in FAIRLY close game...10 points maybe...but one of those closer than the final score will indicate games.

Vote to ban any Skins fan picking Dallas.

Does someone want to second the motion?

Well, I would consider myself a true Skins fan, I picked them every game so far based on a somewhat rational

belief in the Skins. but in the poll I picked the other team :vomit:
I think the best thing the Skins have going for them is Zorn, I think he gets the rivalry thing and knows a win here will be BIG. If he and JC get in a rhythm like the last few weeks we will win, but my head over heart says:

**** 24
Skins 20

28 - 27 Redskins

Redskins 34
Cowboys 20

2 4th qtr Tds (including a Carlos Rogers 65 yarder with 1:37 seconds left) to win the game

Well the Vegas line has the Cowboys favored by 11.5 at home this weekend.
But Vegas does not know how much emotion goes into a Redskins-Cowboys game.

I do not think Dallas covers that 11.5 point spread.

I feel confident that the Cowboys will assuredly win this game, but not a blow out by any stretch of the means.

MTK · 09-24-2008, 12:08 PM

Everyone is swinging on the Cowboys' nuts right now, so I guess the spread has to be that high in order to keep the money even. I'd be surprised if they cover.

RobH4413 · 09-24-2008, 12:12 PM

Skins 38
Cowboys 35 OT... another fourth quarter comeback win to take down the boys.

One thing is for certain. With this team... unless its a huge blowout, I'm going to be glued to the game screaming at the top of my lungs. This team plays with the most fire I've seen in a long time. They won't give up, they'll force turnovers, and they'll score points.

If we're down early... it matters not.

BleedBurgundy · 09-24-2008, 12:12 PM

I still say that if we win, romo will be the reason. Dude is too sloppy not to have it eventually bite him in the ass.
