Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

Well... fuck.

I just don't know here. It's not that I'm chicken (God knows i've predicted us to lose games this year), but this one is just unpredictable with all the variables - weather, emotion, Collins, Manning.

I'll say this: I [I]want[/I] to see us win more than any in any other game this season.

Hail!

[quote=canthetuna;393181]I hope we do, but the deck is definitely stacked against us.[/quote]Not really. I mean, Collins long-term production in this offense has yet to be evaluated, but we definately can exploit a pass defense weakness for the Giants if we can get those ends blocked. We are only going to hurt ourselves if we try to run the ball this week. Our defense is capable of shutting down the Giants and forcing turnovers. The question is, will it actually happen?

i'll give you that...

Its gonna be up to the wideouts to get the offense going like I said. most of the backs and even cooley will probably either be used in pass protection or covered well...


if collins has a good day with the wideouts even if they only send 2 or 3 guys on routes, our offense will have a good day.

I am also a little concerned about them running against us, but we'll see. London Fletcher is a beast and has been shutting the run down all year long, I hope he can keep it up...


GO SKINS!!!!!

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

I would say that the Redskins will win this game? Why? The Redskins need this game more. They will play harder than the Giants and pull for a win.

I do not see the Giants as a better team than the Redskins. Sorry.

I do recall the Redskins winning 17-3 over the Giants at halftime earlier this season. The Giants are capable of being defeated. They are not the Patriots.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

We finish the job this time.

"...winning...at halftime?" So what? That doesn't mean squadoosh. That's been our problem for as long as I can remember: We can't [I][B]finish[/B][/I] games. While I agree with you in that the Giants are beatable, I just look at our situation in more realistic terms than most on this board. We have a backup QB, an O-line depleted because of injuries, a defensive backfield also suffering from injuries not to mention the heartbreaking loss of its best player, and finally, a coaching staff that seems lost more often than not. Before anyone decides to send me hate mail, know that I am forever a 'Skins fan and I have a man crush on Gibbs and Co. But our organization needs some really really good luck to come our way before we stick our chest out and make bold predictions on how the Redskins are better than [I]anyone[/I] else considering events incurred this season.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

We should've beat the Giants earlier this season (yes I know, would've could've should've,) but I don't believe they are that much of a better team than us. It's going to be a tough game for both teams. I say it's going to be a tough, low scoring game throughout. Too close to call.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

G-men unfortunately.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

bad weather, and we ran the ball pretty effectively on them early in the year with wade and fabini just getting started.

I'm not sure how they could study up on Collins. He's got one half of a football game under his belt in the last few years AND there is no doubt that Saunders offense has way more to it than what the Bears faced. I don't think NY will have much to go off of, but they will focus on penetration up front to disrupt a "rusty" QB.

So you win games at halftime....how'd that work out for you?:smashfrea
The Redskins need the win more...ahhh no the Giants need this big time checkout the playoff scenarios.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

Eli Manning in good weather = average QB. Eli Manning in bad weather = Ryan Leaf. sorry, you guys lose

hahahahaha

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

What is going on here? Why is everyone predicting the Giants to win? Redskins are transforming into an efficient passing team. Todd Collins will toss the ball all over the Giants 10th ranked passing defense. But Portis will be smothered by their 7th ranked rushing defense. Eli will be frusterated by our blitzing packages and will make some costly mistakes. We will double cover his favorite target Plaxico Burress most of the day. So Eli will dump it off to Shockey and Jacobs and they will make big plays off the screen. But it won't be enough and Redskins will hold onto a late lead.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

All I want to see Sunday night is the Skins to play with mad crazy heart. If they do that against the giants, we will see what next week has in stored for us. Our Skins need to play this game like it is their last. Our playoffs start this Sunday. Meaningful games in December is a good thing. Can you feel the electricity?

Feels more like a 9 volt to me.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

I certainly hope we pull this out. I'm just not convinced it can happen.

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

Majority wins!

Um, I think I got my scores reversed and meant to pick the 'Skins. What the hell do I know anyway? I love it when I'm wrong! Great game tonight and good to finally see some smiles on this team, they deserve it!

Re: Skins vs. Giants predictions
 

[quote=skinsfan69;393013]I just find it so funny that 81% of the people that voted think we are going to win. I guess homerism never dies.

The Giants are a better team than we are. I think Burress is going to have a big day against our depleted secondary. Giants d-line is going to dominate our o-line. Collins is going to struggle throwing the ball in the bad weather. They are at home and it should be an easy win for them. I hope I'm wrong.

Giants 27
Skins 13[/quote]

What's that about homerism?

Maybe it's pessimism that never dies?
