King picks Texans

Red Robert · 09-22-2006, 10:59 AM

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.

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..

It's Peter King !!!!

That Doesn't Suprise Me In The Least

gibbs4life · 09-22-2006, 11:22 AM

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.

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.

vaoutlaws2006 · 09-22-2006, 11:30 AM

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.

That Guy · 09-22-2006, 11:40 AM

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

MTK · 09-22-2006, 11:41 AM

King did predict our blowout against Dallas.

Just saying.

12thMan · 09-22-2006, 11:46 AM

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 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.

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.

redsk1 · 09-22-2006, 12:30 PM

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.

Hog's Breath · 09-22-2006, 12:39 PM

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.

Mc2guy · 09-22-2006, 02:52 PM

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.
