Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
The Falcons are 18th in the NFL against the run. The Redskins are 3rd in the NFL in total offense and 2nd in rushing offense. Expect RG3, Alfred Morris and maybe Ryan Grant to run all over Atlanta's defense. Now, if the defense would only do their part......

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
We should change these predictions threads to "If the Skins are to win, the game will go something like..." threads. lol.
Anyways, I think we can win if we get nice, long drives down the field. Keep ATL's O off the field. Almo, RG3 & the run game need to dominate and nothing short of that. Keep the clock moving, the less times they touch the ball the better. On defense if we get a good consistent push up the middle all game long, fluster Matty Ice a little bit, and prevent big plays at all costs we might find ourselves a pleasant little victory... ...not counting on it though.

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
BTW, this game is rather hopeless for us unless we can control the clock for 35+ minutes, and RG3 performs like superman.
I just see a huge blowout this game, with our secondary getting absolutely chewed by White, Gonzo and Jones, with Michael Turner basically having his way once the threat of the long pass has been established. Sad, but IMO true. This is the game where getting behind early instead of up early forces RG3 into some bad spots, and as a rookie, he is entitled to some of those, especially with our defense. He ends up trying to do too much, and has a pick and a fumble in the second half. Secondary gets completely busted wide open this game. Falcons 37 Redskins 14 |

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
I don't like this game at all. As a matter of fact, because the Skins and the league looks at things in quarters (4 games at a time) I don't like this whole month for that matter. Falcons, Vikings, Giants, Steelers in the month of October. Man I would take 2-2 again for this month and move on. The Redskins may not win a game this whole month if they don't get their secondary worked out. Everyone of these next 4 teams can pass. Secondary needs to get healthy in a hurry and "man up".

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
We win by 1. Last time I made that pick we beat Dallas 14 to 13 in the MNF Brunell to Moss game.

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
For the forseeable future our offense is going to be our best defense.
Run the ball all over their weak run defense and hit play action for chunk yardage. Control the time of possession and limit Matty 'ice'. Don't give them any cheap quick scores make work to move the ball down the field. Limit penalties, win the turnover battle, win in special teams. Good guys: 27 Bad guys: 24 |

Re: Skins v Falcons predictions
We're going to have to play ball control-keep away because the Falcons are scoring every possession against our defense.
Still won't be enough unfortunately, 31-27 Falcons
