You know we have been hearing "TO is due to begin his self-destruct sequence" for two seasons, and yet it has not happened. In fact it is quite to the contrary. TO is model team mate and a leader on the field and off.[/quote]

Much like Randy Moss, he's happy when he's winning...

Now if they were 1-8, we would probably see a different TO. Winning cures a lot of problems.

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

We've played just one really good team on the road so far this year. Dallas will be the 2nd.

Boys: 49
Skins: 13

I think the talk around the NFL, Washington D.C. and especially The Warpath after Sunday's game will be of Gibbs (uncertain) future. Not sure I'll tune in for any of it.

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

34-10 DALLAS

owww!!!
it hurts to say this

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

37-13, They will beat us in every facet of the game, the only reason it may be this close is the fact that anything goes in this rivalry, our O-line can't handle their D-line, and their O-line will man handle our D-line, Taylor could have kept this game with in reason, without him it's a blow out.

We have to attack them deep with reckless abandon to have any chance, and I doubt that will ever happen?

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

I think some people really need to chill and stop taking these predictions so damn seriously.

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

[QUOTE=firstdown;378871]Because on any given day in football any team can win a game. Just look at college football this year or the year that Dallas had only one win against us and we won the SB. I have never gone into a game or watched a game that I thought there was no chance of winning. It happens every day that a underdog wins and so there is always hope. I never seen so many SKins fans throwing in the towel to of all teams Dallas. [B]We saw it again last night that a unranked team Arizona beat Oregon [/B]I beat Arizona always thought they had a chance to win that game. Is it a up hill battle? Yes, but there is always the chance for the win an until its over I'm not throwing in the towel. So if you give up before the game ever starts yes you are a panzy and you will lose every time.[/QUOTE]

Oregon also lost one of their key players (QB Dixon) to a season-ending injury.

This year, that only happens to the Redskins.

Cowchips win by the way, 38-16.

It's gonna be like Custer at Little Big Horn. Except this time, the Indians will be the ones to get massacred.

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

I don't know, I'd rather have T.O. than Brandon Lloyd.

If it's one thing the elite teams have proven this year, it's that you need a knockout punch at wide receiver or QB, and preferably both.

[quote=Mattyk72;379085]I think some people really need to chill and stop taking these predictions so damn seriously.[/quote]

Amen brother. Who cares what the fans say? I actually think it is better when everyone in the world picks against the Skins. It always makes me kind of nervous when people start saying "there's no way we lose this week" or "Skins are a no brainer pick." As long as the Skins players aren't predicting a loss than that's all that matters.

You cannot look objectively at this game and see a whole lot of opportunites for the Skins to come out on top. Where are the matchups that favor them? Taylor is such a huge loss it really changes a lot of what the Redskins can do. Both long TDs the Eagles scored on last week were plays where they took advantage of Pierson (he was in great position on the long TD to Brown but could not adjust in the air and he overpursued way too hard to the boundary and allowed Westbrook to score on that 58 yard screen...he's a good player but he isn't an elite game-changer like Taylor). They'll have to take advantage of Jacque Reeves every time he is on the field and Jason cannot miss if he gets a shot deep. The biggest problem will come in stopping the Cowboys offense. They haven't had too many bad games this season and the Skins defense has not played particularly well since prior to the New England game.

Anyone can beat anyone on any Sunday, it's not just a cliche. Just look at St. Louis last week, they had "no chance" to beat New Orleans but they did. They got some players back, though, which is something the Skins can't really look forward to on Sunday (unless Moss can make plays). Chris Cooley is a certified Cowboy killer so maybe that is a matchup the Skins can try to exploit. Obviously Portis has to play big but the Cowboys only give up 87 yards /game on the ground. They are slightly more vunerable through the air, especially if Jacque Reeves has to play a substantial amount for Henry, but even there they are holding opponents to a 73.5 QB Rating (in comparison to the Eagles who have allowed opponents a 89 QB Rating). The matchups that favor the Skins are their WRs on Reeves or matched up with Roy Williams. Cooley should also have an advantage on their safeties.

They have to keep Romo in the pocket and have to make him flush to his left side, he is deadly moving to his right. If I were GW I think I would bring all pressure from the offensive right and force Romo left, I'd even move 'Dre over to the other side a good bit to try to generate pressure from that side. The Skins haven't done a great job dealing with QBs who can move and extend plays this season, though, and that worries me quite a bit (even Kellen Clemons gave them problems and the hobbled McNabb made a couple of plays last week too). Rocky McIntosh remains a liability in coverage and if the Cowboys get a chance to match him up with either Witten or Barber those are certainly matchups that favor them.

The real key will be forcing Romo into mistakes, which is possible, and shortening the game by running the football (even though that is anathema on this site). The Skins have to pay attention to Demarcus Ware and can't let him get free runs at Campbell (that probably means Portis needs to be on his game in with the pass pro, which he excels at). They did not do a good job at all last time the played against the 3-4 and Vrabel ate the o-line up, so hopefully they have worked on that this week. Of course its possible for the Skins to win, its just hard to figure out how they'll do it in Dallas and without ST. Clearly everyone will be rooting for the Skins and I don't think you need to get so incensed FD, plus if you want to predict a Skins victory then lay out how they'll do it. Short of a Romo meltdown, which I really really hope for because I actually genuinely hate that dude and his unique combination of immaturity and arrogance, its going to be tough.

Re: Redskins vs. Cowboys predictions
 

So, for those of you who say, "I never go against the Redskins" -- did you honestly expect them to go 16-0 this season?

That's what you expect and hope for? An undefeated season? As if we're on par with the Patriots?

Well, on a macro level, I don't think very many people expect a 16-0 season. On a micro level, I would like to think that a lot of people hope to win that particular week.

It's the same ole, tired argument of Realist versus Optimistist versus Pessimist versus 724Skinsfan.

Redskins win 28-21...decidedly! Thanks to Campbell connecting on long passes to Randle El and Cooley for 3 scores early in the game. Romo tries to mount rally after rally but penalties and turnovers plague the Cowboys until the 4th quarter when they score twice in the final 4:37 minutes.

If somehow they win, then you can act like you knew all along. If you pick against them, no one cares that you were right. So, there's really little risk involved.

BTW- that's a poor excuse, cause you never once missed the college pickems, and it's THE EXACT SAME PASSWORD! They are both on yahoo.

It doesn't matter on the fantasy league cause even with a full team you would not have beat me. Rocky, angry and myself are the cream of that league.

[quote=jsarno;379196]I was speaking about the yoder comment.[/quote]


Well, he's shown some ability to get open, and Cooley will probably have 2 or 3 guys on him all day. They certainly won't leave Williams alone on him.(Cooley) He's(Yoder) like Don Warren at this point. No one expects him to be in the passing game so maybe you surprise them a little. You've got to try get some kind of wrinkle, some element of surprise. Plus about 8 turnovers would help.
