Redskins vs. Saints predictions

MTK · 09-10-2008, 10:07 AM

I know this won't be a popular pick, but until the Skins show me something I've gotta go with the Saints. They have too much offense and we simply don't have enough. I don't see a blowout though, something along the lines of 21-13.

I won't make a prediciton b/c then we will lose. My luck just sucks. I will say however, that this IS a winnable game. I think we can win it.

I will be at the game as well, and most of the games I go to, we win...weird.

I think this game goes into OT, what happens next you'll have to tune in...or ask JamaicanSkin

Jamaican'Skin · 09-10-2008, 10:52 AM

I believe that we'll show improvement, but I'm not sure how much. I can believe that Zorn play-calling, and the offense's execution will improve, and I think the D can definately keep us in there with Shawn Springs and Jason Taylor healthy.

I won't make a prediction abou that, unless you call me now (10cents a minute for the first minute, $10 after that)

I, like Matty, am officially in "Show me" mode. The Saints will win by less than 10.

EternalEnigma21 · 09-10-2008, 10:25 AM

Most of these guys are the same guys who bounced back 2x in the last 3 years to win out and go to the playoffs. They don't quit. I don't think the saints are as badass as people think and our guys won't look polished on O, but will get the job done @ home.

Skins win @ home 24 - 17

I agree. SKINS 20-13

birdz4gibbs · 09-10-2008, 10:26 AM

work in progress so this game will be a tough one but certainly one we could win if they play their cards right on all sides of the ball...
i,m thinking saints win this game but my heart tells me otherwise skins in a shootout 27-24 skins get a late tirnover and run it in for the win..

again it,s from the heart. wait and see.

htownskinfan · 09-10-2008, 10:27 AM

wow,3 or 4 traitors so far

:

,if last week's predictions would have started like this the forum might have blown up!
even though the skins looked more pitiful than i thought possible last week,I'm going with them this week,24-21

Call me what you want, but until the Skins show me otherwise I am going to pick against them every week. Hell, if the Skins win... I am still going to pick against them every week until they lose again (stupid-stition).

I didn't pay attention to who was on the traitor list. My bad (does anyone say that anymore?). I'm still going with NO.

CRedskinsRule · 09-10-2008, 10:32 AM

I still think our red zone defense can absolutely shut down the opponent, so unless the Saints get big play type scores, I think the Skins can win, but they will have to score at least 2 touchdowns. Skins win 17- 15.

GTripp0012 · 09-10-2008, 10:44 AM

I'm going with the Redskins this week. I think the Saints are a beatable team with no running game to speak of, and I know we can handle their passing attack.

I'm not sure we'll be able to move the ball consistently on that D, but they might be weaker in coverage than the Giants, so if Campbell gets a chance, he'll find a lot of success down the middle of the field.

17-16 Redskins.

Slingin Sammy 33 · 09-10-2008, 10:49 AM

Springs' return helps the secondary. Saints don't have the power running game of the Giants, allowing JT to take less of a pounding and get after Brees. Saints D not as good as Giants. Portis finds some running room. Ball control keeps Saints O off the field. More shotgun for JC =

Skins 27 - Saints 17
