King picks Texans
 

Over at cnnsi.com, Petey picks the Skins to not only lose to the Texans but to lose by 2 touchdowns. I used to like this guy and thought he had some decent insight but this is crazy.

I can't wait until we right the ship and stick it in every mediots face.

I must say, I find that...........stunning

It's Peter King !!!!

That Doesn't Suprise Me In The Least

Re: King picks Texans
 

between he and lenny they are pretty dangerous..
they are some smart nfl people right there.
they know their stuff when it comes to everybody else in the nfl that is.

Re: King picks Texans
 

its not like Houston is a high school team. They're professionals, and they won't roll over...if we play like we did against the Vikings and Cowboys we will get beat. If we can get a running game going, and perhaps dust off the play book on the ol' forward pass we will win.

Re: King picks Texans
 

no real suprise there....david carr has quietly put together some nice stats. dont sleep on the texans. this is our chance to get our offense and defense "healthy". better not be overlooking anyone if you ask me...any given sunday.

Re: King picks Texans
 

carr' stat have been padded in the 4th quarter when they were down by massive points.

Re: King picks Texans
 

King did predict our blowout against Dallas.

Just saying.

Re: King picks Texans
 

I hate to sound so negative, but why is it so far fetched that we're picked to lose against Houston. Because, what, we're better on paper? What have we shown this year to let people think otherwise?

Personally, I think the offense struggles again this week. I think Clinton will find somewhat of a groove, but that's about it. I say we pull this one out in squeaker....unless we have a heroic defensive effort.

Right now, Sean Taylor could be our biggest 'offensive' threat!

Well God Bless Peter King and the big white horse he rode in upon ....

However recent history says that its up to the team to play well enough to prove him wrong.

Re: King picks Texans
 

Yea, i don't see that happening. But really what have we shown this year so far to think this is a gimmee for the skins. Not much.

Re: King picks Texans
 

They have really speedy receivers and a pretty good QB...deffinately not a game to overlook.....But, if we play to our potential we have it!!!! Look for alot of gained confidence this week, which will lead to a victory next week vs. the Jags :-) (I HOPE!)

Re: King picks Texans
 

I think the most important thing for us to win the game is to have a strong game defensively. We obviously can't expect the offense to put up 42, so the defense is going to be the key. I also have my doubts about CP being able to start the whole game. I'd rather see more Betts and Duckett carrying it, so CP doesn't get too banged up and save him for the Jags.

And I don't think Kings prediction is that absurd. Like another poster stated, what have we done so far to make the talking heads think that this game is a lock for us? The answer is nothing.

Re: King picks Texans
 

The Texans have the worst Pass Defense in the league. Andre Johnson is the only receiving threat they have. and they have no rush offense. Carr has been sacked 217 times in 60+ starts.

However, that's why they don't play these games on paper, but inside our television sets.

I could see Houston winning but not by 2 TDs. I think Portis sets the tone and Brunell finally figures out how to throw deeper than 10 yards.

If I wasnt a Skins fan...Id pick houston as well. Their offense is firing and ours is sputtering...and that great D of ours isnt stopping much of anything right now...

yes yes, I have hope, as a fan, that portis gives us the spark we need, blah blah blah blah, but I think most comentators would pick Houston over us right now..

Re: King picks Texans
 

Take the teams and the PK aspect out of this.

If you break the game down:

Team A is at home. QB has the #2 QB rating. TD/INT is 4/0. Scoring offense is 17.0 PPG.

Team B is on the road. QB has the #25 QB rating. TD/INT is 0/1. Scoring offense is 13.0 PPG.

Defensively, Team B has the edge. However, it is pretty clear that Team B just isn't able to move the ball or score.

Is it really crazy to pick Team A -- especially since they are laying 4?

That said, I expect the Skins to somehow win. I fear what this place will look like if they don't.

Eric Moulds is playing opposite Andre Johnson right now...

Re: King picks Texans
 

Surprise Supise King picks against the Skins. I'm stunned!
News flash. The Wight brothers took to the air near Kitty Hawk, N.C., the first controlled, sustained flights in a power-driven airplane

Re: King picks Texans
 

no surprise there, PK & other analysts want to make a seemingly bold prediction, hence the 2 tds. If not for the 2 tds, it would be an avg. pick.
What I wonder is, did these guys watch the Minn. game? Yeah we had our problrms, but it was competitive. Seems like the dallas game is getting blown out of proportion, though we did suck!

Re: King picks Texans
 

On the Dan Patrick show about 20 minutes ago King reversed himself and picked the Skins over Houston. I guess now he can claim he picked correctly no matter what! What a douchebag.

Re: King picks Texans
 

wow. I knew he was lame, but I thought it was a stubborn-afraid-to-be-wrong-lameness...not a waffling-pussy-lameness.

Re: King picks Texans
 

Good. It's bulletin board material. I get worried when King picks us to WIN.

Re: King picks Texans
 

the skins may not win, but you are definitely wrong ... 35-3? HA...

I would've had some respect for you, if you could be realistic...get outta here with that nonsense...

guess what? bears will lose this week by 1,000 points! haha I'm cool just like you

Re: King picks Texans
 

that's a perfect example: 27-10 to the cowboys ... what makes you think houston's defense and offense is better than the cowboys defense and offense? makes no sense...dumb

Wahoooooooooooooooo!!! :doh:

Re: King picks Texans
 

does it make you excited in your pants w hile youre drinking your old mil when the bears win?

Re: King picks Texans
 

you're not dumb b/c you picked the texans to win (I said the skins may not win too)...you're dumb b/c of what you think the score will be (and also b/c you put that stupid wahooo at the end of all your posts)

Re: King picks Texans
 

This is what these guys do. They pick the odd upset and then play Nostradamus when they occasionally pan out. When they are wrong it gets forgotten. Also, Redskins fans are through with King because of his obdurate stupidity regarding Art Monk and his flaming homerism regarding role player Harry Carson. He knows we will forever hate him so there is no downside as far as he is concerned. I think it may be his way of striking back for all the grief and ridicule we gave him over Monk and Carson.

Well said. We're both 0-2. Anyone going into this thinking we're somehothing far superior to the Texans is sadly mistaken. Neither of these teams has proven anything thus far this season. Houston has 34 points in two games to our 26, their defense has given up 67 points to our 46.

Re: King picks Texans
 

i feel stupid writing this but this is definitely the biggest game of the season for the redskins. they MUST win this game if they want to go to the post season

Not only do we need to win though, we need to win big!

Re: King picks Texans
 

people look for any reason to shit on the face of the redskins. the texans defense is 32nd! if we cant gt a first down i might just........i don't know

Re: King picks Texans
 

i really dont care how we win. a win, is a win, is a win. the texans are an nfl team with nfl players who will be giving their all. lets get our offense in sync and start making a push at becoming a good football team

without a doubt a win will cure alot of our ailments. brunnell needs to play like a nfl qb tommorrow. the season or our hopes of the post season need to start tommorrow. I am so happy its a 1pm (est.) kickoff.
