Scouts Inc. Chat
According to this guy the Skins might as well not even bother making the trip.
![]() Marshall Reff: Can the Redskins take advantage of the Seahawk's weakened secondary enough to pull an upset? ![]() Brian(Alex, VA): Why is no one giving the Redskins a shot at this game? If they shutdown the seahawks O and get anything out of there O they cant lose. ![]() Josh (Philly): We all know that the Seahawks D isnt the same as the Bucs D, but do you feel like the Skins are going to be able to do anything on offense?? ![]() JW (Boston): Does Washington (or anyone) have the D to shut down the Seattle O line and Shaun Alexander? My guess is no, maybe Carolina/Chicago or NE? ![]() Justin (Brick NJ): Redskins have only been blown out of 1 game all year (against the Giants). Why do you see such a one sided game? ![]() Drew (Washington, DC): Wow, Matt. Not much to talk about here, huh. You've pretty much covered it - Washington has no chance. Just out of curiosity, how many times have you picked against the 'Skins in the last 6 weeks? ![]() Matthew (Mercer Island, WA): Can Seattle put pressure on Brunell with it's front four? How much of a factor will Brunell's legs be? ![]() Matt (Washington, DC): Don't you think Seattle might be overrated because of the weak schedule they played in the regular season? ![]() Jon, Dallas, TX: Matt, Are either of these two teams good enough to make it to the Super Bowl? Why or why not? ![]() Mike Holmgren (Seattle, WA): Even I can't screw this one up...or can I? ![]() I think you are in great shape for this game and you have done a tremendous job this season. Keep up the good work and good luck. Johnson (Arlington, VA): I'm glad to see that you picked the Skins for TBay. Don't you think that the Skins can shut down the O and put up enough points to win? They are an adapting team. They have scored 52 points on SF and 36 on TB. 35 on NYG and Philly. So even though people say we are inferior, we still put up big numbers and adapt to the team that we are playing... ![]() Eric (Seattle): Who do you think will be the MVP of this game? I have to imagine if the 'Skins put 7 in the box to stop Shaun, Hasselbeck will have a big day, and vice versa... ![]() Matt (Washington, DC): I know the 'Skins are underdogs, but what do you think would have to happen in order for them to win? ![]() James (Seattle): Is Washington going to be able to deal with our crowd noise? ![]() Todd (NYC): Ok Mr. Expert. Please tell me in what way the Redskins defense is depleted. You do know that literally everyone on the roster is going to play, right? And everyone is perfectly healthy save for Springs, who sat out the Bucs game so he would be in great shape for Seattle. ![]() Chris (Maryland): Love him or hate him, Sean Taylor will be the MVP of this game. Skins will do everything in their power to keep Alexander from beating them -- 8 or 9 in the box all day -- leaving Taylor to roam the secondary. If he comes up with the big plays, Skins will win a tight, low scoring afair. ![]() Tony (DC): Yes Alexander is the MVP, but please answer this question. What is so impressive about Seattle and who have they shown it against? ![]() Walter Jones is the best offensive lineman in the game Their OL in general is outstanding Alexander is a stud as noted The defense is solid, although a shade overrated Home field advantage Fresh Legs Good coaching adam (DC): As I say, a lot of optimism here in DC. You still haven't answered whether the Skin's offense will move the ball and score w/o a healthy Brunnell. ![]() Brian (DC): I am not a skins fan, but listening to this defensiveness, it sounds like I'm dealing with the Patriots chat again. Simply put, top to bottom the Redskins will be the second best team on the field this weekend. That doesn't mean that they'll lose, but the Skins offense is bad. I'm with you Matt, although I say it'll be more of a 21-13 game. ![]() blunt (DC): What weapons does Seattle have? Matt, is talking crazy ![]() Eric (Seattle): Gosh. These DC fans are really taking your well-researched, expert and professional prediction of the game personally. Aren't they? ![]() Krikor (DC): Matt, do you think Brunnell is 100%? He does not look like it. I am real worried he is going to have another poor performance. What do you think? ![]() mattyk72, NY: Hey Matt, see you next week for the Skins NFC Championship Game chat! ![]() ![]() |

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
What a jackass, I dont mind if people defend Seattle, or think they will win, cause I defintley understand those arguments. I just have a problem when they come across like this clown.

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
Well don't you see the pattern? If we somehow eke out a win against Seattle, everyone will give us no chance against Chicago/Carolina because we will be too fatigued after the Seattle game to pull out our eighth win in a row especially on the road.
I don't like our chances of going all the way, but I sure hope we do - what a sweet f@ck you it would be to all these brilliant analysts! We could very well be the team of destiny this year. |

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
Yeah I wish someone would have asked him "If the Bucs had won, would you give them a chance to win this game?" I guarantee he would have given them SOME sort of shot.

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
Everyone has an opinion. At least this guy just says it and goes with it. He is a scout guy so his opinion does has some validity but he seems to be making more of an emotional argument. He says we are going to hit a wall. Why? I agree we could but I think maybe Seattle could be rusty as likely. So maybe maybe maybe maybe....
He says they'll have difficulty applying pressure and won't nearly stop the run like TB. Oh and our front 7 are playing great. So despite all that it will be an easy win? Those thoughts don't jive. Maybe he was just trying to be nice about us and he thinks we stink. |

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
He's wrong because it's our destiny (our karma) to win this year. If last week's game didn't convince you of that, I don't know what would. We lost ST for a good portion of the game, a crucial punt was shanked, Bucs had good field position almost the entire game, fumbles bounced our way, a last-minute sure TD was mishandled by the Bucs, Wynn breaks his arm, offense is on life-support. . .
I could go on and on, but you get the point. Any 1 or 2 of these things should have been enough to turn the tide against us, but it didn't happen. Why? Because, as in 1983, it's our destiny to win this year. Know why the pundits aren't picking us? They don't, they can't believe in destiny. They make their living analyzing stats. They'll be eating their words on Sunday! |

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
It takes two to make an argument. Sports debates are part of the joy of the game. Fans don't go on the field, but they do play defense between games. Applies to Seahawks, too.

Re: Scouts Inc. Chat
Nice parting shot by MattyK. I didn't since a great deal of insight there. The Redskins will be able to 'move the ball but points could be more difficult'. That seems to imply that the Seahawks will stiffen in the red zone which would go against the Redskins pattern as of late. They've scored touchdowns on almost every trip. The reason Tampa was succussful was they kept the Skins out of the red zone. If somene is going to play themselves off as an expert, I wanna see more than simply banal truisms. I notice too that his tone changed a bit when he realized it was mostly Skins fans in the room. The Seahawks fans are too busy drinking Starbucks and learning all the verses to 'Oh Canada'.
