Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

Its time. Lets get them in writing.

Defense surprises, 10-6 NFC East champions

Im not as high on the Giants as some seem to be. Questionable Running attack, Questionable Oline. Their offense hinges on emotional wreck/boat captain Blondie... Good Coaching staff, semi-elite defense. Giants give both Eagles and Dallas fits to our benefit

Eagles will improve and could surprise. But I think they are a solid 7-8, 8-8 team, but their overrated Oline and their defense is a work in progress. CB and LB play is poor.

Dallas...man this hasn't been a good offseason. Defensively they are a mess, I don't know where to begin...lost their entire secondary, Linebackers already missing time with a Glass Sean Lee, and Peg leg Jaylon Smith not far behind. Can you name a pass rusher? Offensively, maybe the most consistent in the division with the woman beater running the ball. Without, the offense will struggle. Grab your pop corn, this could be bad and might kill Jerrah.


Skins 10-6
Giants 9-7
Eagles 8-8
Cowboys 7-9.

This division is one where outside teams don't want to play...we will beat each other up, but we come out on top this year.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

I'm going with 9-7 WC Birth.

I think the Giants win the east at 10-6.

NYG 10-6
WSH 9-7
DAL 8-8
PHILLY 6-10

Giants def is beastmode, and the offense will do just enough to win 10 games.

Skins will have the best offense in the division but our D just isn't there yet. Especially our run d.

Dallas will compete with that amazing OL, Dak doesn't get touched much so he'll be able to check down all day like he usually does, their D is bad though and no Zeke will hurt big time.

Eagles are a team that could be .500 If the ball falls their way but I don't see that offense being consistent enough. WR's are avg at best and so are the Rbs.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

I got the Giants taking the division. Nasty defense.

I think we lost something in DeSean Jackson's deep threat. Don't think we continue the same offensive production we've had in the last few years. It offsets an improvement in defense, and we wind up back at mediocrity.

NYG 11-5
DAL 10-6
WAS 8-8
PHI 7-9

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

Sadly?

7-9

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

I will go with 10 wins. Division up for grabs until week 15

6-10 at best ..and yes I am a fan! this team has major flaws ..starts at top and trickles down.Losing Our Star WR'S will hurt big time..not signing Cousins 2 years ago to a reasonable contract will haunt us because no way We pay him Stafford money. this team at some point will get it together but with the schedule I don't see them winning more than 6 games and I don't mind at all be called out on this..i hope I am wrong and they win it all..

Fuck Dallas Fuck Giants Fuck the filthy Eagles

We are gonna fuck up this division this year. Our time folks.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

12-4. Anti Steve Spurrier. Looking shitty now to dominate later.

Jr. stays healthy and he combines with Kerrigan for 25+ sacks.

Fabian makes All-Rookie team.

Doctson catches 10 touchdowns.

And fill up my Kool-aid glass please.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

We will be +1 or -1 from 500 ball. Us starting out playing the AFC West right off the bat doesn't help the cause. Game one vs Philly will be a good gauge for the entire season. I don't see us winning the division. Either D or NY will do that. We will be 3rd in the division most likely.

Love this post, and please pass me a glass.

What's crazy is that most folks on this forum would probably not be surprised to see us winning anywhere between 6 and 10 games -- less than 6 would be a surprise (to me, at least), but more than 10 would be as well. Seems like this season will be hard to get a read on -- so many question marks.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

I'm going 11-5/10-6.

I'm also taking us to win the east. I'm a damn Redskins fan. All the other teams have their fare share of flaws like we do. Kirk finally wins big games and we take the crown. Our defense is vastly improved and heats up over the last 10 games to just be nasty. Offense leans on the ground game early while the receivers and KC get on the same page to see them playing big time ball also on the last ten games.

There are to many questions on the other three to sit here as a Redskins fan and pick anyone other than us.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

6-10, I see the offensive line regressing. I may be drawing too much on the preseason, but I am worried about pass protection and we have never really solved our running woes.

Defense will continue to struggle on 3rd down, and with a much tougher schedule I can't see much this season beyond 6 wins.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

actually if 6 wins is all we can get ..I would like to see us with a top 3 draft pick..end this Qb issue .. Im serious that the redskins may be the top 5 worst teams in league..I predicted 6-10 but after looking at schedule again 3-13 may be more accurate..I hope I'm wrong but i believe this team will implode and will start from scratch..but we will see.. starting next sunday.

Games we should win: at Rams, 49ers
Games we have chance: vikings,at Saints,at Chargers
Games we should lose: Raiders,at Chiefs,at seattle,Cards,Broncos
Division Games: Eagles,cowboys,giants..We all know these games could go either way..so as you can see its not gonna be easy to win 6 games..

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

Hey everyone, I have been a Redskins fan for 25 years now and I have been a big fan of this fan site. I mostly have sat back a read the post before and after games. Many times I tend to agree with many post. I normally don't post much just because most of you say exactly the same thing I say :) with that being said my prediction is that we go 10-6. I think that the defense has gotten better and the offence will get better and better as the season goes on. Thank you guys and HTTR

Top 5 worst? I'm really not understanding all this doom and gloom.

The only game I would count before the season as a loss is the Seattle game, and that is because it's at Seattle. Looks like you think very highly of the AFC West. I would move all those games one level down. We should beat the Chargers (and Broncos at FedEx), Raiders and Chiefs should be good games to see where we stand, but I don't think the Chiefs Offense, or the Raiders Defense are capable of outplaying our team every Sunday, which is the only way I would keep them in the should lose category.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

The Raiders are a favorite to go deep into the playoffs. Chiefs have a great home field advantage..unlike us. The AFC west is very good .. its alright to think positive about this team and I hope I am wrong but the vegas odds has us at 7.5 games over /under on season..i would like to think we could split our division games. we win at Rams,49ers..then say we split the rest that is 9-7 and to me that would be a good season with the schedule . So I will not be surprised at 6 to 8 wins..yea it would bum me out for anything less than 6 wins but it could happen and if We win 10 games Gruden should get coach of year and Cousins should be signed to long term deal..

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

9-7
They could be an 11-5 team but Gruden finds a way to lose a pair of games on some bullshit.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

4-12

Worst team in the East by a lot. This team needs an enema.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

They advance past the 1st round of the playoffs in years and just might sneak into the SB. 11-5 season.

He is just girding himself for possible disappointment, which with this franchise isn't a bad idea. Low ball 'em and when they come through you will be very happy, and if they don't, well you get what you expected. Can't really lose with that kind of thinking. The season hinges on how we start. Facing the AFC West out of the gate will be challenging for us to say the least.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

Overall it seems like the Warpath fan base is at best expecting nothing, and at worst 4 wins! Man, brining me down!! Bout to ramp my prediction up to 13-3.

11-5 surprises everyone NFC East champs, 3 seed, win the wild card game and then we see what happens

you got it!!

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

1) Cooley gave Breeland an A+ in his film breakdown of the Bengals game.

I thought he looked great but to hear a football wizard saying he loved everything he saw on film from him is awesome!

If Breeland becomes his good self again, our secondary looks great!

Plus we know we improved at ILB and added one playmaker at DL in Allen.

[B]So I don't see how our defense is not much better this year.
[/B]

2) Offense will be ok, Pryor will get his shit together and make some plays, the run game will be at least a little bit improved, O-line will be great when playing 100%, only unknown is [B]will KC calm the F down[/B] and play to his full potential ? I think he can, I'll bet he will.

3) IMO the Giants are the most best team of the division, because they have a great D. But they have no running game.
The Cowboys have no secondary, and we will see how long Zeke is suspended, how much it hurts them.
The Eagles improved their roster (the Darby/Matthews trade was good for them IMO) but their O-line still looks pretty weak.

4) All that said, I think we go [B]10-6[/B].

Oh please ...I forgot the Redskins Are winners!! Anybody who is a true fan and actually follows this team (read the pages and pages of negative dribble over the way the Skins have handled Cousins contract) knows full well this team aint going nowhere ..and if you want to drink the kool aid and believe..Go ahead! Im tired of pulling for a product that in the end just disappoints ..so Yes I will watch the games but this year is different I took off my rose colored glasses and will watch with my big boy pants on and have a backup plan (like DVR the games and not sit inside yelling at the TV driving myself insane) COULD they win 10 games I guess anything is possible but don't be surprised if they don't win half of that. Glad to see you guys are so positive about the playoff run....If they can start with 3 wins in a row then I may start to take notice..

It's the NFL, anything can happen. Except I'd say for the first time in a long time we've had a solid team, back to back winning seasons, we're not the Patriots but we're not the Jets either.

We're among the 20 teams that are a few good plays away from going 11 and 5, and a few bad plays away from going 6 and 10.

Predicting where we'll land between this and that is pretty much impossible, but as a fan I see no reason to believe we can't achieve.

The pieces are there. That was not the case in 2009, 2010 or 2011.

We all are Redskins fans here, that's not the point. And we all have seen them snatch defeat from the jaws of victory many times. But the team was in contention 3 of the past 4 years, and I expect (without the koolaid thank you) that they will be in contention this year with a slightly better D, and possibly a slightly worse offense (though I personally don't think so).

Bottomline there is no reason to think they will suddenly tank the whole season, any more then there is reason to believe they are going to go 19 and 0.

Re: Redskins 2017-2018 Season Prediction
 

Top five offense and the D has to be better than last year simply because of how bad they were. The doom and gloom is just... odd.

I think losing Mcvay will be harder than some think, but overall the offense will still be a good unit. Top 5? IDK but Id say top 12 for sure

Part of me thinks this, and then the other part of me says that Mcvay had only been a playcaller for a short while. Jay has been doing it for years. I think we will be OK in that department. My hope is a more well balanced offense.
