I think it would serve the Skins well to get up early on Detroit so the Lions start thinking "Oh no, here we go again!". If the Skins make the mistake of letting them stay in the game too long, this could be a another nail-biter.

I concur. I would like to see at least 1 five play drive from the Skins. The NFL is a pass first, quick strike league. They need to develop the ability to get down the field in a hurry. They didn't get through their 15 scripted plays against the Giants until the 3rd Quarter.
