Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

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.

Skins 23, Lions 10

I've got the D shutting down the passing attack with 2 key interceptions. One by Landry and *gasp* one by Rogers. Rogers will jump a route and take his back for six. Landry's will come in the back of the end zone and they'll take the touchback preserving the lead before halftime. The 2nd half starts with a 13 - 10 Skins lead and then the running begins with long drives all second half the Skins manage to add 10 more and the D remains stout.

Isn't that the truth! And if you question them, you get accused of "drinking the kool-aid!" Well you know what, I like kool-aid! Tropical punch is my favorite flavor. I also like V-8 Splash.

With that said, the Redskins will pull this one out.

Redskins - 24
Lions - 21

Overtime Victory.

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

Ima put it this way, our defense held eagles to 12 points and they score 58 on the sorry ass lions..... COME ON NOW! Lions are untested, played scrubs. This is their first test, and they will get wrecked.
Skins 35
Lions 21

Cambell has over 300 yards 2 tds, sellars gets 1, smoot takes it to the house

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

and portis of course gets 1 too

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

Think about it folks...

The Lions got blew up against the Eagles. A team we handled pretty well and a team that couldn't even sniff the End Zone against the Giants. The Lions are pretenders.

[quote=Takeuon;359071]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)[/quote]

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

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

In case you guys havent noticed. The Lions have given up the most sacks of any team all season. So I think that we will have 4 sacks at least and force at least 4 turnovers and I still think we win 35-20, with the Lions scoring a late TD.

One loss and some people think Detroit will take us to overtime?

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

[QUOTE=Chief X_Phackter;359078]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.[/QUOTE]

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 [I]might[/I]
squeeze one out of me then :cheeky-sm

Nice! Maybe Madman Mr. Sean Taylor gets a pick too!:)

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

24-20 Redskins!!!

I think our D comes up huge in this game and for the most part it's 24-10 and the lions rally at the end but not enough....we rush for 200 and Campbell throws for over 200....and everyone's back on the BANDWAGON!!! including my pessimistic Skins fan in DC as we get ready to head to Green Bay.

ALL HAIL!!!

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

probably a loss knowing the redskins...

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

Skins 35, kitty kats 9 (3 field goals)

Re: Redskins vs. Lions predictions
 

don't forget that the bears shut down the lions for most of their game and one of their touchdowns came from a kick return when the game was over, and the bears are awful on D right now
