That was just a general statement. not directed at you bro. :food-smil

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

Damn it, I hate this game....We need to play the best defense we've ever played and play mistake free football on offense to have a shot at beating the these endangered birds.

Come on Skins, the world is your to conquer...don't let us down.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

This is the biggest game for this team in 4 years. Legitimacy is in our grasp. Let's go boys and HTTR.

It wasn't your fault. I saw the same that you did. NFLN needs to be more careful with their info.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

The game is on here in Bellaire Ohio I think who ever is in charge of comcast in Pittsburgh is a Skins fan too.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

I am not home and in AZ anyone know where I can get a free stream of the game??

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

Torain starting according to Schefter and others on Tweeter.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

Stop Vick-Obvious one right here. Vick is what runs the Eagle offense. If we manage to stop Vick and that’s a fairly large if, then we stop the Eagles offense. Vick struggles with recognizing pressure so I expect Haslett to produce plenty of confusing formations. But we cannot over blitz, we can not allow many Quarterback runs. Vick is already a weak passer so the only way he will truly beat us is if he runs and jukes us out of his mind.

Run the ball-We have 3 extremely talented runningbacks, Ryan Torain for his power and drive, Hightower for his solid cutbacks, and Helu for his speed and change of pace. To the weak Eagles defence, this is the 3 headed monster from hell. The key to victory isn’t giving Grossman the chance to make mistakes, it’s giving our runningbacks the chance to make plays.

Brandon Banks must improve-He is just not the same last year, is it the new rule? Other elite kick returners have had no trouble with this rule. Brandon needs to be giving us more production on returns, if he doesn’t you have to wonder if there really is a place for a guy that can only return.

Less Penalties-The Rams game was heavy in penalties, the Skins cannot afford to shoot themselves in the foot.

Trent Williams vs. Trent Cole-This is a key matchup, when Grossman is under pressure he makes mistakes, so thus we need to protect him from one of the best pass rushers in the league. This is the preview to the future, Trent will be facing Cole until one of their contracts runs out, can Trent finally prove worthy of his high selection?

Brown vs. Babin-Babin graces Fed Ex field with his presence today. Key matchup of the game. If Brown does not match up well Grossman will be on his face constantly and well you cannot win when such a thing is happening

Yeah I don't have a lot of confidence either. This is a classic game the Skins always lose. Is this team different? Maybe, but I have to see it to believe it. In all honesty I'm worried that we'll get blown out. I really hope I'm wrong.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

The Eagles come to town with a 1-4 record, a far cry from the “dream team” expected. The run defence is what was expected, terrible, But the all harolded pass defence has been extremely vulnerable. The Eagles offense has produced but is inconsistent. They are figuring out what us Skins fans have many times, you cannot buy a championship.

Score Prediction: Redskins 24 Eagles 21

Another heart attack pack finish, it’ll be close and back and forth but I fully believe the Redskins can pull this one out, Grossman will be under pressure all game but give a reasonable effort. The running game will be huge in this game, Torain, Hightower, and Helu all getting over 40 yards. Defence will be solid with a couple sacks, but as always a big play will likely be given up, as always I expect the Redskins to pull out a victory, HAIL

Predict Stats

Grossman-20/32 215 yards 1 TD

Torain-15 carries 85 yards 1 TD

Hightower-10 carries 52 yards

Helu-8 carries 40 yards 1 TD

Moss-3 rec 55 yards

Davis-4 rec 72 yards 1 TD

Even though I posted we'd win this, I'm actually pretty skeptical that we will. Classic Skins letdown game.

I think we need to score 30 points to win this game. And I don't think this offense is capable of scoring 30 points right now. That's my worry.

X factor is if Rak/Kerrigan feast on their beat up O-line and knock Vick out. Not wishing injury on the guy, but it could happen. Their two best tackles are out, rookies playing, etc etc.

Actually, I'm more skeptical of the latter than our ability to score 30 points. I have a feeling that we won't exploit these mismatch's like we should and keep the Eagles in the game. The Eagles will be a tough out. If the Skins beat the crap of them like they should, then the pundits will be eating lots of crow on Monday.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

No Jason Peters, pourous run D, Vick mistake prone, Skins two weeks to prepare. We will control the LoS on both sides of the ball and win this game.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington
 

This game needs a Fred Davis attack

A deep shot to start the game? That wasn't predictable or anything.
