I'd find a better word to use than several.

I just hope our guys fight their guts out.

High expectations for the game huh? You just want to see some passes completed to the WRs?

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Yep.. and a win would be nice if we can make it happen. I also would love to watch Landry knock the snot of someone. Hopefully my TV will survive the game.[/FONT][/COLOR]

So you think we will beat the Giants, but possibly lose to Arizona? No matter what happens Thursday, I can't imagine the disarray that would follow a loss to Arizona.

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

I don't think we win this game.

I do put some stock in SOME aspects of the preseason. In the last two games we didn't run the ball real well, but I'm not worried about that. CP will take it to them. But we have no ability to throw the ball right now. I think we'll pass protect better than we did against the Panthers, but I don't think it matters. With Thomas and Kelly being worthless, there's nothing to stop the Giants from rolling coverage to Santana Moss. And of course without Thomas and Kelly, the Giants can key on Cooley and Fred Davis in the red zone.

Campbell clearly doesn't have the timing down yet, either.

Our defense will keep us competitive. And I expect Zorn to get conservative and run the living sh** out of Portis, because not much will work through the air.

In the end we keep it pretty close as our defense hangs in there. Portis gets 30+ carries, and goes over 100 yards, but Campbell is ineffective and throws an ill-timed interception. Then Eli beats us with one or two big plays downfield.

Giants 20
Redskins 16

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

The more I think about it, I don't see us winning this game. Heart says "Skins Win", Brain says "rebuilding year..."

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

FIrst time ever that i am not picking us to win... :(

Giants 24 Skins 17

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

If Portis gets his....100+ yards there is no way we lose this game. The defense really hasnt shown much throughout the preseason...so with better play on that side of the ball i think you see us win this one.

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

I'm hoping zorn is some kind of genius giving opposing teams nothing, but abysmal pass protection and out of sync offense is something that you wouldn't fake. Its not even that the game plan was vanilla, it was lack of execution by the starters. I don't think our guys forgot how to play football, but something is wrong and I don't think its going to be fixed until a couple of weeks in when J Taylor and Landry are 100% and JC finds a rythm with his recievers.

Gints 27

Skins 13

But we will win 9-10 games this year.

All I have to say is what comes around goes around... it won't be roses for them forever....

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

stupid giants. if only romo wasnt in this division..then eli would be the dumbest qb

Re: Redskins/Giants Predictions
 

I think it will take several weeks (3-5) to work out some of the major kinks in our offense. However, the Giants have lost several contributors along the Dline and in the LB corps. I think JC throws for 195 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT and 1 fumble. Portis rushes for 90 yards on 25 carries. The unit puts up 16 points.

I don't have as much faith in our defense as most Redskins fans do. I don't quite trust Blache yet. I think the unit allows Manning to throw for 235 yards and the Giants RB corps to run for 150 yards. The defense allows 24 points.

Final score: G-men 24, Redskins 16
