Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
The Rams are a pitiful bunch. I know some are worried about a letdown but I honestly don't think there's much to be concerned about. It's true that the Skins have to approach this game in the same manner as they did the previous 4 but I have no doubt that they will show up ready to rock on Sunday as Zorn seems to do a great job at keeping this team on an even keel, or "medium" as the buzz word seems to be around Redskins Park. The Rams are ranked near the bottom in just about every offensive and defensive category, while the Skins are the exact opposite.

Big day for the Skins, and a bad season keeps getting worse for the Rams.

Redskins 34
Rams 10

PAIN. Lots of it. I would love to see us shellack a team for the first time in a while.

Skins 42, Rams 14.

Lets see, I attempted to predict week one, and we lost. I consciously decided not to predict the last 4 weeks and we've won. I don't think its Zorn's teachings as much as it is me not predicting. I mean just check the facts.

Therefore, I won't be predicting again, in hopes that Angry will once again predict a thorough thrashing of our team.

Go Skins

I think it will be a close game that could come down to overtime, after that...who knows.

I'm looking for a big game out of Ladell Betts

I've been close with scores and right about the W/L all year. Skins win in a brutal game.

Stl-23
DC-27

I don't think these guys are going to lay down. They've got nothing to lose, 2 weeks to prepare and a new coach. They're going to suprise our guys. This won't be the same team it was under Linehan.

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
I agree that Zorn won't let them let down, They also seem to adjust fairly quick when things are going wrong, They kind of remind me of the championship Spurs teams when Duncan and co. would never get to high or to low, That's the way to do it.

Of course I don't believe this, but in keeping with a 4 week long tradition,
Rams 31-Redskins 13

Skins Fans,

What a great start! Last 2 weeks have been incredable. Conversing with the ever shrinking Dallas fan base has been delightful, to say the lease. Philly fans have nothing to say, can you blame them. LOL The Rams are a mess, new coachand have had 2 weeks to prepare and nothing to lose, ...etc blah blah blah all adds up to the Rams continued losing streak.

Skins are the better team and handle business!

Skins 31 - Ram 13

Im hoping for ass woopin like the skins did to the niners in 05. 52-17 I think was the score.

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
I won't be in town to see the game, but I predict every week after that Week 1 loss (and the 1 week I didn't predict) I don't know anything about the Rams except their FO is going through mayhem and their team is apparently a wreck. With that said, the Skins keep their composure while the Rams run around like a chicken with its head cut off.

Skins - 27
Rams - 17

I know that I am letting the past dictate my feelings, because I have the HUGE trap game fear. I could list a thousand fears here, but everyone knows them, we've seen them too many times before. [B] BUT[/B] if this is to be a new Era for the Redskins, let it truly begin now:

Redskins 42
Rams 00

my head says the Skins are capable of this with ease. I mean we marched up and down the field against the solid defenses, and we held top offenses that average over 30 to under 20.

Hail Skins

With any luck by Sunday thr Rams will have been sold and there season cancelled. They will move to Plano TX. and the Dallas metro area will have a pro team worth watching

This might sound crazy, but I think the rams are going to play us hard!

I'd say Saunders only has what's on film, and everyone has that. Personally, I think we have more information to use against him.

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
Unless Zorn realy hates this team playing them 2 times a yr when he was with Seatle I don't think it's going to be extremely high on our end. Oh, don't get me wrong I bet we could put it up but in almost every game he has gotten the team up he starts running the ball to run out the clock.
I can see us getting up early and holding the Rams to field goals. Maybe no score at all. This will be the week Zorn plays the Rookies to get them some playing time after we get up far enough.

27 Skins
9 Rams

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
idk man the rams do have bona-fide weapons in a healthy holt and s jackson plus bulger is a qb who has played at a high level before and coming off the bench might ignite some of that st loius fire power . . . throw in theyre coming off a bye week with a very bad taste in their mouth . . . i havent seen the rams play yet this season so i dont know what their problem is but i dont think haslett is the answer but that does leave blatche with very lil film to study up on.

skins 33

rams 20

Id like to see the D give up less points in this one but the rams do have studs in stud only positions.

go skins!!

Yeah I agree. Blache should know his offense well.

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
There is no doubt in my mind that we will totally romp the rams this weekend. Look for the skins to make nfl history with the final score 74-0 Redskins!!! With this win we redeem ourselves for the 73-0 loss to the bears in the 40's!!!

JoeRedskin 10-08-2008 01:59 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
I think the Rams will come out tough, they still have some offensive talent. Not enough mind you - and their O-line is, as I understand it, the worst we have faced so far. The DL has a BIG day.

Also, didn't they just cut their number 1 CB for lack of effort? Sounds to me like their DB's are gonna get destroyed. Moss has a HUGE day - Asante Samuels, Sheldon Brown and Lito Sheppard are NOT trying to stop him this week.

The Rams come out gamely, the Redskins roll from the beginning and by the middle of the second quarter (okay maybe third) Rams just roll over.

20 point win for Skins.

jbcjr14 10-08-2008 02:08 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
We must stop the run first and take SJ out of the game early. Hit them in the mouth like the last 2 opponents and they will fold like a cheap tent.

Redskins -- 28
Rams -- 15 (no TDs)

I'd like to see us get over 30 points on these chumps.

BDBohnzie 10-08-2008 02:52 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
Let's break down the Rams thus far. 32nd in Total Offense, 31st in Total Defense, 0-4. Averaging about 11 points a game while giving up 36+. Signed, released and re-signed Eddie Kennison in a matter of a mere 3 weeks.

However, with a new head coach in Jim Haslett and coming off a bye week, these guys are fighting with a dangerous combination of pride and desperation. If there ever was a trap game this year for the Skins, this is it.

Marc Bulger, while struggling behind a paper thin offensive line, is still capable of having a good game, with Torry Holt his main target. However, beyond Holt, their receivers are piss poor. Springs shadowing Holt, with Landry deep will force Bulger to make plays to other wideouts. Steven Jackson sat out most of training camp in a contract dispute, but looked good against Buffalo before the bye (110 rushing, 78 receiving, 1 TD). The Rams will try to force mismatches with Jackson coming out of the backfield.

As long as the Skins stay focused, this matchup shouldn't be a problem.

Skins 31
Rams 19

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
Don't forget skins legends, that Steven Jackson ran it up on one of the best D's in the league in the Bills, so I would be prepared to see these cheese dicks put some points on the board, plus Bulger is coming off his benching, so he is gonna be looking to show St. Louis fans he is the real deal!

Taking a page from our glorious past ... the Redskins stage an encore performance of the most lopsided playoff victory in my memory ...

Redskins 51
Rams 7

Afterwards, Al Saunders is overheard saying, to no one in particular: "I never want to play those guys again" !!

HAILItsGAMEDAY 10-08-2008 04:21 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
I personally wouldn't consider the Bills Defense one of the best in the league LandrySlice. There schedule has been pretty light and I'm pretty sure Arizona had 3 rushing TD's in last weeks game against the bills. However I do agree with your point about bulger and wanting to prove something. Sadly for bulger though were not the team he will be proving that certain something against.

CRedskinsRule 10-08-2008 04:31 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Rams predictions
 
I am not trying to take away anything from any of the Rams players, everyone knows that they have solid position players. BUT we have gone against the best of the league and held our own, offensively and defensively. The Redskins can and should be as impressive if not more, this week against a lesser opponent as they were the last two weeks.
I'll take my Ram served MEDIUM!!!
