Time to focus on going 3-0
 
Giants stink.. we gotta win. After that we have another winnable game against GB. 4-0 is not crazy stupid right now.

Woh woh woh.

Lets enjoy 2-0 for about 5 seconds before posting about how the 72 Dolphins dont have shit on us.

Great win tonight, Giants up next. Cannot over look them.

One game at a time here.

yea, lets enjoy this win, and get ready for ny, cause if we can win sunday.... we will be 3-0 in the by week

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
All I am saying is this was a must win and set us up going forward for a phenominal start. Notice I said 3-0 not 4-0 in the title. The 4-0 was just a glance down the road. I do think we need to gameplan to attack NY. Their D is awful and our coaches should be shot if we go into the game looking to keep it close. NY is a team we can score points on if we scheme it and execute.

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
This Giants team really scares me. If their defense looks like it did the past two weeks, we should put up 30 points.

But defense is very unpredictable in nature. If they come in and stiffle us in our house, we can't count on our defense to absolutely shut down Eli and co.

I, like the rest of you, will be picking us. But if any of you are willing to bet the deed to your house that the Skins will win going away, give me a call.

Last 2 or 3 years, we about have seen everything.. Anything is possible, we gotta look at Giants like if they re really good team.. Just focus on this game, not Green Bay, just not yet..

Very true. I think we can really have a great offensive day vs the Giants.

Division games are always a challenge.

Giants have their backs against the wall, They are going to come out like the 87 Giants and kick butt.

Let's enjoy the win for atleast a day.

RMSkins 09-18-2007 01:04 AM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
We definitely cannot underestimate the Gmen, while they are struggling they're also a divisional opponent, and you know they will play us tough.

MonkFan4Life 09-18-2007 01:26 AM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
41-9 Washington !

They will play tough but the Redskins have a LOT of momentum going into this game. I understand that you cannot underestimate anyone but looking at the Giants play and looking at the Redskins play I think that the Skins are too much for them. The runnung game looks good and the passing game is starting to click a little, not a lot but a little. Campbells game is improving by the snap, I mean did you see that pass to Cooley for the TD ? This guy is getting it, and doing it against a tough Philly D. The Giants' D is all bark and no bite. I think the defense will be able to keep Eli at bay, as long as the offense can get going then this will be an easy game IMO.

Sheriff Gonna Getcha 09-18-2007 01:27 AM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
The Giants D is pretty bad right now. Aside from Osi, Strahan, AP and Fred Robbins (yes I said Fred Robbins), no one on the Giants defense scares me. If we can't put up 21+ points on that team, we are not a playoff-caliber offense.

I see Andre Carter having a nice day against Diehl. It's a hard call because the Giants have so many good offensive weapons, but I feel pretty good about our chances.

mooby 09-18-2007 01:53 AM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
If we are gonna lose this game, it's because our defense failed, not because our offense couldn't score. There's no reason we shouldn't be able to light it up against the Giants with how porous their defense is. Our defense does kinda scare me, mainly our passing D because we should be able to shut down Dexter Wynn. Burress is 6'5 and has a definite height advantage over our secondary, so we're gonna have to prevent him from going deep and using that jump ball to his advantage.

ArcticRed 09-18-2007 01:57 AM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
36 - 0 is the score I remember when we under estimate the Gmen. The skins stroll into NY riding high from a 52 - 17 stomping of SF and then blow it thinking they can just show up and the win is thiers.

This stage is very similar. It can very easily turn out to be 2006 all over again.

My faith is in JCampbell though. He has this team more grounded than I have ever seen the Skins since Snyders been owner. It seems the players ride on the thought that JC can get it done, but not without their 100% effort to cover for his "rookie" mistakes. Not that he makes many.

Go Snowflake! (Kelly Johnsons comment on JC clothing choice last week after the Miami game)

3-0? yoooooo we are going 6-0!

i get 20 bucks if the skins go 5-0 :D i lose 5 if not.

Seriously though one game at a time (blah blah blah). Lets enjoy this win and start getting concerned about the o-line.

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
I say the Giants give us a run for our money. First of all, their offense will give us problems. And their running back? Forget his name, but I've seen him two weeks in a row and, shifty cut-back runners give us problems.

If...if their defense can show up for one game, which they are capable of, this could be our toughest game until we play the Pats.

The Giants always play us tough, so we had better dig in.

Burress is going to be hearing footsteps.

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
I can only hope that the Redskins aren't looking at the Giants like some of you posters. How many times have we gone into a game against an opponent that sucks only to get our ass kicked? Several over the last few years. These are the games that they should fear the most: Teams with their backs against the wall, desperate to prove their detractors wrong. I hope the team approaches this game (and each and every one thereafter) as if it were the freakin' SuperBowl.

70Chip 09-18-2007 04:16 PM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
I'm glad we're playing them here. The last two years we've gone up there after big wins, layed an egg, and then gone into a month long funk. Every week we play it is a statement game. Every week we have to get better. We need to come out and play even better than we did last night if we hope to sustain our momentum. That is the nature of the NFL.

Monksdown 09-18-2007 04:25 PM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
I agree with you Chip. Don't look beyond the Giants. I want to crush them, slowly, but effectively over the course of the entire game. Minimize our mistakes, dont showboat. And get turnovers if we can. If not, then just don't let them behind us.

We can beat them if we don't underestimate them.

firstdown 09-18-2007 04:34 PM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
Its just fine if you want to over look the Giants because we ant playing the game this is a chat site. I say 5-0 as we roll over NY, Lions, and GB.

Skinsfan1967 09-18-2007 04:35 PM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
Our first division game at home.
Washington 2-0, New York 0-2.
NY defense is horrible.
Skins clicking on offense.
Washington defense is just downright stingy.
Giants can put points on the board.

My prediction

Redskins 31
VaGiants 20

I'm certain Gibbs isn't overlooking anybody. I also think we have a legitimate chance to go 6-0.

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
The Giants will bring their A game next week. They got totally embarassed by the Packers. I would be a little worried, but I think Gibbs will have the guys focused and ready to go. We can't get comfortable just because we're 2-0.

sorry just a pet peeve of mine.

when the giants look at the film and see the deep threat we are starting to create, there will be some room to run

Point well taken.

If one has season tickets, and thus direct fiscal contribution to the team, is the 'we' allowed then?

They do stink, but you know what my burgundy brother? On paper we have been the better team even when Fassel was still the Gmen HC. We have a sad ass record against the Gmen as of late, even when personnel wise we fielded a superior team talent wise. One game at a time. Although McNabb is a better QB, Eli has a much better WR corp to work with. McNabb had no where to throw to til the end when we were in prevent giving him the underneath stuff. Eli has burners for WRs(compared to what McNabb had), not to mention Shockey. I still think we will win, but we can't take any of the intra divisional contests as gimmes.

i think the skins will lay an enourmous ass whipping on the NYG next weekend.
if i were the coaches on the skins staff,all i would do is make them look at the ass whipping the giants put on them the last game of the 2006 season when tikki barber set the team record for most yards rushing in a game!!!!!

JWsleep 09-18-2007 06:50 PM

Re: Time to focus on going 3-0
 
Controlling their passing game will be the key--man, am I glad Tiki retired! It seemed like he had a career day against us every time we played. This is the week I would like to see our D get some TOs--pressure and rattle Eli and get some picks. That would go a long way to winning it.

As for our O, we're going with a whole new right side of the line--I think Buges will make it work, but I am not sold on Fabini as an every day player. Hope that won't make things too hard on us.

I am confident, but I agree that we've all seen too many weird things happen in just this sort of game to be cocky, even though the Gmen suck right now. They've had our number lately. They're probably thinking this is just what they need to save their season--into DC, win against a division rival, and tighten up the standings. We can't over look them. We must crush the life and hope out of them on the field. Then we can worry about the nest game.
