Re: Redemption Week!!
 

Rex Grossman's best performance of the season came when the opposing defense committed itself to stopping the run at all costs over stopping him. That means we better run the ball down the Eagles' throats so we can get one-on-one matchups for Rex.

How the hell is a 1-4 team favored on the road against a 3-1 team? No love from Vegas I guess.

If we're only good for 16 or 17 points though, Vegas will be right.

Re: Redemption Week!!
 

D.Hall does it right this time. His statements were well thought out and spoken like a team leader.

DeAngelo Hall was sort of circumspect when Comcast SportsNet’s Kelli Johnson asked him this week if he wanted to make a Redskins prediction, in the Rex Grossman slash Tim Hightower tradition.

“I’m gonna shy away from that,” Hall told Johnson. “I don’t need no more heat. Like I said man, we’re on the right track right now. We’ll take it one game at a time.”

Agree, which is a similar reason I am picking the Giants to roll over the Bills this Sunday. But in this case I think the Giants are a more solid team and winning with more effort than luck as the Bills have had every situation go their way and playing teams that have beaten themselves. IMO

Re: Redemption Week!!
 

According to injury report Hall is questionable for Sunday w/ a knee injury. Buchanan is also questionable. Yikes! Hopefully Atogwe chooses tomorrow to be his first impact game as a Skin.

Much has been made about the Philadelphia Eagles’ “wide nine” defensive scheme, and the team’s inability to stop opponents since switching to that front this season. The popular belief in Philadelphia is that Andy Reid & Co. should scrap the defense and go back to the system used in the past.

But Redskins tackles Trent Williams and Jammal Brown believe that the Eagles aren’t as far off as people believe in making the system work effectively, and they see how the wide nine could cause problems for opponents.

Philly has been getting the sacks, so if Kyle gets the urge to try make Rexy look sexy by calling tons of passing plays, he's going to be in for a looooong day.

and all i can think about is how we were going to run down the rams throats and they did PA, PA, PA for the first two drives before setting down. I hope they just do some good ol' Marty Ball ( I never thought I'd say that).

Re: Redemption Week!!
 

can't wait for kickoff ... this is def one the biggest early season games in a long time ... with the impact to knock philly down to 1-5 and to move to 4-1 is so huge ... I have confidence and not just kool aid confidence in this team ... the D & the Shannys have been working this one over for 2 weeks ... that crowd better be rocking it's ass off .. see you all Nov.6th as I'll be flying back for some fed ex action vs the 49ers.

Re: Redemption Week!!
 

Biggest game in the last 3 years. im glad its a 1 kickoff, id start breaking sh*t if i had to wait to 4 for this

Re: Redemption Week!!
 

WWOOOOTTT WOOOOOT! i bowled a respectable 162 last night..sry had to mention that. not the greatest score but considering there was a whole familyt of this girls birthday that came down fron PA with their own bowling balls figured id mention.

ANYWAYS we are gonna stomp these lil bastards, man, ive made the past about 5 years or so philly games at fed ex wish i didnt have to go to this wedding and would be heading south instead of north.

i love philly fans. ive drank and smoked in this eagles decked out winnebago where they have "giant slayers" and "cowboys killerz" decorated on the sides. anybody going to games im sure has seen it.

there real cool dudes, probably entering their 30s now, they get pretty crazy. me and my friend who is literally 6'4 and 400 lbs decided to trade smoke for beers with the fter a skins win and decided to leave after they started getting real mad about 2 hours after the game ...well one guy really and we def bigger and badder than they were but props still to them for repping
