What do you expect in the Atlanta game

[CRedskinsRule]

So after a bye, and for us fans 2 Sundays without Skins football, we start the final 9 regular season games. Certainly not how I imagined coming off the bye would be, nor where the state of the Skins would be. BUT, I saw some positives in the Philly game, solid Redzone calls, effective D as always, and the use of 2 out of three of our 2nd rounders actually contribute.

SO what will we see?

ARE returning fewer punts - maybe he will focus and improve.

Our D has been much closer to actually getting defensive points, and this is the week it happens. That will push us over the 20 point barrier for the first time in however long.

We will find a way NOT to shoot ourselves in the foot on each and every stinkin possession!

DT, MK, and FD all will have significant playing time and we will win this one in an upset, 21-17.

I expect another ugly loss. Something along the lines of 24-10.

I expect us to be rested from the bye. For their part, Atlanta is banged up. Because of this, I expect a close game.

[TIFOSOdeiREDSKINS]

while i always hope for the best with my skins, i expect it will be the football equivalent of doing a cannonball into an empty swimming pool.

[Chico23231]

I expect our offense to play better, because it cant play any worse....I expect a good defensive effort...ATL 22 Redskins 20 missed field goal by Sushiam at the end

[Brikks]

I want to receive hope for the future.

I want to see individuals pick up their game and show signs of improvement (with the spotlight on our trio of receivers).

This.

2-14 season unless we pull off a win against a division rival, possibly Dallas at home.

I also expect a blowout at some point this season like the Pats did to us in 2007 to the tune of 52-7.

[MTK]

I think we'll manage another win or two, how or when who knows.

We'll probably play up to our competition.

I know we lost to both the Giants and Philly, but I think we absolutely looked like a better team in both those games. and that again goes to coaching. A good coach has a team prepared for every game, but our team absolutely looks like a team without leadership, especially on the offensive side.

Maybe against the Giants, but I thought we looked downright embarrassing on MNF against Philly. It was tough to watch. I'll give credit for the RZ td early on to the offense and Sherm Lewis, but that's about it. We looked like a backyard football team.


This week against Atlanta: we score 24 (two Off. TD, one Def TD, 1 FG.) but White burns Hall all day and Atlanta puts up 38.

sorry for the re-hash, but we offensively our scoring was competitive with Philly, and if we hadn't shot ourself in the foot by turning over the ball on the 4 yard line, maybe it would have been different. Remember, Philly's D is far better than the 0fers that we struggled against, and yet still managed to score in the RZ. Was it championship play, no, but it was a far better output than against the 5 0fers where we literally stunk up the place.

edit: corrected the outscored line

[Monkeydad]

I expect we'll want Sherm Lewis to be hired as coach!


Skins 21
Dirty Birds 17

[firstdown]

I don't know why some of you even waist the time watching the skins or posting here with all the doom and gloom. I say we are well rested and the team comes together with a big win over AT with a score of 28 skins to 17 At.

i honestly expect a 24-14 win i dont know why and you all probably think I am crazy but I can feel it.
