Re: Redskins vs. Seahawks predictions
the seahawks are a good team, not great. the skins have shown tht they can definitely beat a team like this. there is one big thing tht is gona help the skins on top of the 4 game win streak. its the weather. a wet ball in the wind will screw with the seahawks main attack--> passing. if the seahawks do become one dimensional and uncharacteristically run the ball with 2 mediocre backs against the redskins great run D, its almost a guarantee win for the skins. their "star" runningback, shaun alexander, has only ran for 716 yards and 4 TD. their other runningback (who they kind of use in a 2 back system), Maurice Morris, has only ran for 628 yards and 4 TDS. in other words, they have no running game, even though they played only one winning team the whole season. They will be forced to run and theyre prolly gona fail. clinton portis, on the other hand, has ran great the past several games. he'll tear them apart just like what he did in minnesota (the best run D in the NFL), when he averaged 4 yards (76 yards total) a carry and even got 48 yards receiving on top of tht. i think its gona be a sloppy game, but in the end, the redskins running game should beat the hawks running game and win the game.
