What do you expect in the Philly Game

CRedskinsRule · 10-22-2009, 08:33 AM

I expect a very different game from both teams then what we have seen to this point. From the Eagles I expect to see a lot of Vick. It's his first primetime appearance, and I expect AReid will want to show off his guy. I think they will score fairly quickly, and probably lead at half-time. Both their rookie WR and last year's hot ticket will score a TD.

HOWEVER, I think the our offense will put on a MUCH better showing then the last few weeks which will lead to our D will get their first defensive points in eons. Malcolm Kelly is going to be the talk of the town after this game. Sherm Lewis may or may not be a "genius" but he's no slouch, and if he accepted this job, he is not going to go at it half-ass. I think our offense will move with a purpose, and actually score 2 redzone TDs. Orakpo will get 2 sacks this game, AC will get 1.5. Overall, even if it's a one week wonder, we aren't getting beat by Philly this week.

28-24 Skins.

We fall behind early, and never quite score enough to catch up.

I'm deleting all the Skin losses on my DVR. Maybe we catch a Shanahan sighting?

I only get 60 hours of HD recording on mine so I have to delete the few wins we may get

My wife keeps the Vikes games on there and puts them on every once in a while to rub it in...

anyways as a realist I expect to get blown away. The Eagles are looking to bounce back from an ugly loss to the Raiders and I'm sure they're excited to be playing us so they can get back on track... but as a fan I say we win 17-13!!

It's only going to get worse now that we're starting to play teams that have actually won games.

Eagles 27
Skins 6

Wow are you going to watch the game then?

GTripp0012 · 10-22-2009, 09:14 AM

Well, the Eagles can't block anyone, and we can't block anyone. So with that in mind:

13-10 Redskins.

We'll be blown out at home on national TV. Eagles 34, Redskins 13.

I was thinking about this game and trying to be objective. Both teams are coming off awful losses. The Eagles trend is they go through a slide around this time of year and it takes them a few weeks to come out of it. The Redskins have had a disappointing season, but the benching of Campbell may give them a wake-up call and a division rival who is struggling could be what they need. Therefore, I could see this game being 41-0 Eagles, 41-0 Redskins or worse, or somewhere in between. As I was looking at the schedule for my knockout pool and narrowing it down to a few games, this was one I looked at and said, NO WAY. If you gave me 30 points either way, I still wouldn't bet on this game.

Except for 2 extremely lucky plays against the Skins and Cowgirls you'd be 3 and 4 right now. go away.

freddyg12 · 10-22-2009, 09:45 AM

Purely from an objective standpoint, it's clear who the better team is & it ain't ours.

However, Zorn kept his job last year w/a win at Philly & Blache knows how to plan for the iggles. I can honestly say that we have a chance, simply because our D can keep us in it. Not saying I expect to win by any means, but I won't be too surprised if we do.

My prediction is that we come out fired up, get an early lead but in the 2nd half we can't move the ball & the iggles wear us down. 24-13 iggles

Chico23231 · 10-22-2009, 09:51 AM

I just have this strange feeling that the offense may improve with better playcalling from the bingo caller, too bad he cant play on the line too...31 Eagles 24 Skins

CRedskinsRule · 10-22-2009, 10:03 AM

I am also interested to see the following actions/inactions:

Will Zorn be active on the sideline, or will he be more withdrawn.
What will Gruden's commentary be like. Will he rag on DS or will he make comments on how he would like to see things done. Will he hype Campbell, or make a comment along the lines of "whoever the next coach is will be looking for a new QB"

I think I see what you're getting at. Are you suggesting that Gruden's commentary should provide a clue as to whether or not he would like to have Zorn's job?

More than just wanting his job, assuming he will at least get the offer, how he responds to different players. In every game I have listened to him, he seems to be very forthright about his feelings on players. Does he praise Portis, and heavily knock the line play. Does he say the line is improving but Portis is declining. Nearly all his offense related comments would be a reflection of what he might do if he came here.

I would also like him to go sneak away and get sherm lewis' headset, and give the offense a test run. just a series... or two.

Yeah, I want to see what Gruden has to say.
