All I know is that if the Skins think they roll through the Giants, and come in lax, the Giants will beat them.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Remember folks, Atlanta's both starting safeties are done for the year with injuries. That had a nice duo...no surprise Giants had big numbers through the air.

If we play like we have the past 2 weeks, Eli will get killed

If we get a hit or two early then he will start collapsing at the pressure. I watched the first half of last night's game, and was shocked to see Solder and Will Hernandez get beat so often. Hernandez in particular had some plays where he looked like a turnstyle.

Our line should have a field day, and I expect Kerrigan to hit Barkley every play. That was the plan with McCaffrey at Carolina, and it should be the plan this week.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Hernandez has been disappointing so far

Right. Think week 2.

[quote=calia;1204042]Meh - Engram has 12 catches in the year for about 120 yards and Shepherd had a good game today but hasn’t done much else.

And right now who do we have that is better? Our wr's are not better than theirs. Reed and Engram are a split. Both Qb's are not playing well. I'm curious how you think we're going to roll up there and blow the Giants out. It will be a close game that will come down to the last few minutes.

who is more likely to lead their club to a final, last drive win? Alex or Eli?

If we have CT back and PR / Crowder I think we can win by 10. If not yes I agree it'll be closer

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Watched the game last night to see our next two opponents. Came away convinced we SHOULD beat them both.

The Giants are a bad team that we should beat handily. Shut down Barkley same way they shut Elliot. Pressure Manning and he will make mistakes. The potential for a +5 sack day exists. And, unlike this past week, where we often needed five to create the pressure, I am pretty sure rushing four will be enough to get past the porous Giants O-Line. With the ability to drop seven in the obvious passing downs, the DB's / LB's should be able to contain OBJ and Sharpe. As always, however, chunk plays will likely be an issue for us.

While I will worry about Atlanta after we take care of business against NY, I suggest that, at home, we should beat them as well. They have no running game to speak of and their D is decimated by injuries. Ryan is a solid QB but just seems to play better at home than on the road. Their WR's create all sorts of match-up problems and I am concerned their RB's will eat up our LB's in coverage. However, I think our D is better than NYG's and, with Ryan playing on the road, their offense simply isn't as high-powered as at home.

[B][I][U]SHOULD BEAT.[/U][/I][/B] As others have said, this team needs to forget the win and prepare. J. Allen was saying on the post game that the Alabama process was the same win or lose and, as a result, they won -- a lot. Love his mindset and hope it is infecting his teammates.

Cooper to Dallas for a 1st? Glad it was them and not us.

Just as much, which defense do you trust in the last 4 minutes of the game?

And for the first time in forever, you have to answer Redskins D.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

If we cant score 24 on Atlanta we just suck plain and simple, that Defense is as bad as it gets

Eli, even though he’s been shitty the last couple of years he’s a proven winner. You just don’t beat NE in the SB twice.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

The Eli that won those Super Bowls is long gone.

Thats's true,but the Alex Smith of last yr seems to be long gone also.It's hard to judge Eli this year based on how bad is line is,give him time and Eli can still be very effective,just look what he did to the Texans when his line gave him decent protection.{25-29 297 yards 2 tds}

I agree with this but we find a way to make bad teams look good.
We need Norman and Dunbar to step up against OBJ and Julio.

I think the only bad team we've played this season has been Arizona, and we all know how that turned out. Other than that, I think we've played pretty tough teams and still done well.

My concern is that the Giants always seem to have our number, especially when they are in desperation mode.

You do when you are ten years younger and have the best defense in football. This team is shit - its a rivalry game and all - but this team is far removed from beating anyone let alone NE in the Superbowl.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Giants have been bad for a while now, they are rebuilding around Barkley and Odell

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Divisional game means you gotta throw everything out. It'll be a grinder much like this past week vs. Dallas.

Giants were 3-13 last year and we were one of those losses. We also only beat them by 2 points the game we won.

They also traditionally own us and its beyond old , I actually despise the Giants more than Dallas at this point

Same!

It feels like no matter how terribly they're playing we struggle against them. Gotta buck the trend and start beating them when everybody else does too.

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Code red trap game. Major code red. If we come off this win like we did against Arizona we can most definitely lose this game.

Come out fired up and we should win by more than a possession.

No big plays for the queen please!!!

Re: Around the league week 7
 

Wouldn’t hurt to bring this guy in for a workout and see if he has anything. He was a 2nd round pick a few years back.

As the Folks here know I am a true blue blood put there is no way the Skins lose to the Giants unless your defense collapse's totally. I think your O matches well with the Giants D but your D line alone should create enough havoc to win the game out right.

Skins 27

Giants 20

.........most of the Giants offense will come in garbage time.

In more ways than one...

I agree with the dline being the key to the win. Don’t know why, but this Dunbar news is bothering me...probably because it’s so unusual. Hopefully he can shake this off.

Reed has a dozen more catches and 100 more yards in one fewer game. Not a wash. And our QB isn’t a turnover machine.

Don’t get me wrong - we are capable of soiling ourselves as the Colts and Saints debacles prove. But we are better in the trenches and have enough in skills positions to win if we come out with confidence and urgency.
