Not at all - I'm sure Lions fans have the same confidence for the same reasons...

The Lions are going to throw a ton - everyone knows that. I'd expect to see an aggresive rush to counteract that, rather than Nickel and Dime coverage.

Extra fan support from section 309 should make the difference.

im gonna go with King's prediction

"Game of the week. Jason Campbell and Jon Kitna stand 10 paces apart and have a good old-fashioned shootout. So why, with the Redskins averaging 198 passing yards and the Lions 313, do I choose Campbell to win? Simple. Better secondary on his team. Roy Williams, have your head on a swivel Sunday. Those two safeties are looking to add a few tattoos to you."
Redskins 30, Lions 27

I think the skins D will show up pressuring Kitna to make bad decisions. The D will have a few turnovers I'll say 3 or 4 which will lead to at least 14 points. The Skins will control the ball with power running. They will convert 3rd downs and keep Kitna and the number 1 passing offense off the field. I think we will also see some trickery on offense, I expect maybe a Randle El pass or a flea flicker. Go Skins.

Skins win 31 to 21.

Skins 17, Lions 21, but we will fight our guts out and be all in it together.

No, that's what Gibbs wants you to take away from our multitude of losses in his second stint. Hope the win predictions come true, though. I have lost faith.

That's Gibbs speak. Unfortunately he has become better at this type of speech that at closing out games.

I guess he does not want to hurt any of his players feelings.

Skins come out and lay the wood from start to finish

20- 3 Skins win. The score being much closer than how the game actually went

Takeuon · 10-03-2007, 11:09 AM

This pisses me off. We are going up against a team that leads the league in sacks allowed, is ranked 32nd against the pass and yards allowed and I'm posting on the Warpath where supposed Skins fans are predicting a loss!! Come on Guys! We are going to open it up this Sunday!
Let me understand....are a few of you predicting the Lions to win, so that when we all log back in after the game....you can say "I told you so" ??
My point is... I dont belive that I will EVER post a prediction of the Skins losing. Just can't, just won't. Cause I believe in them. And I have nothing to gain by predicting a loss.
Let the flaming begin.....:o)

Oh calm down, or start your own thread titled "your prediction on how much the Redskins will win this game by"

I think it's possible to be a fan, and still predict that your team is going to lose. Doesn't mean I want them to, but based on performance, injuries, hunch, the alignment of the planets, or whatever, I think they might...
Thus my prediction.

Get over it.

Your right...maybe I just need to see a few more losses before I can start predicting them.
Sorry to say this week won't be one of them though.
Talk to me before Oct 28th when we play The Patriots...you might
squeeze one out of me then :cheeky-sm

Stop drinking burgundy and gold kool aid. I can give an objective opinion even if I think we are going to have a tough time winning this game. I'm going to root like hell for the Skins like I do every game.

What makes you think we are going to open it up? What indications has the coaching staff given you that they are going to open it up? I can bet the gameplan is try and keep the Det offense off the field and control the clock. Which isn't a bad idea if your finishing drives off with TD's. But since we have a tough time doing that it's going to be a problem.

The Lions are capable of scoring 24 pts against most teams. Add that to the fact that the skins have shown they are incapable of scoring 24 pts agains most teams. I don't know what we are going to get Sunday. I truly believe we should win, no question. Its not out of the realm of possibility for us to lose though. Alright here goes...

Skins 27 (Lloyd has career day w/ 3 td catches and 200 yards)
Lions 21

skinsfan69 · 10-03-2007, 11:10 AM

This is not a good match-up for us. I expect Det. to put up 24-31 points. Can we match them? Probably not.

Det. 31
Skins 20

freddyg12 · 10-03-2007, 11:17 AM

my prediction included 4 Det. FGs & 1 TD, as I don't see any way we can shut them down, but maybe bend don't break on D.

The question for me in this game is w/the D. Will GW go after Kitna more often than not, or will we play off the wr's in the cover 3 or 2 to prevent the big play & rely on the d line for pressure?

I see GW mixing up the calls a lot in this one & he'll have to send Landry & Rocky after Kitna a no. of times. Kitna's been sacked a lot this year, Martz has a spurrier like protection scheme. On the flip side, they have 4 good wr's & can break plays.

On offense, there are so many questions. I don't know what to expect.
