Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
It's Football time. HOF game is this weekend. I am fairly bullish again this year. I think last year was a fluke based on Griffin's injury early, then Shanahan just lost the team somehow. I am extremely excited to see Gruden as a head coach, I just think he "gets" it. So here is my prediction:
W Week 1 Sun. Sep. 7 @ Houston Texans W Week 2 Sun. Sep. 14 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars L Week 3 Sun. Sep. 21 @ Philadelphia Eagles W Week 4 Thu. Sep. 25 vs. New York Giants 8:25 PM W Week 5 Mon Oct. 6 vs. Seattle Seahawks 8:30 PM L Week 6 Sun. Oct. 12 @ Arizona Cardinals W Week 7 Sun. Oct. 19 vs. Tennessee Titans L Week 8 Mon Oct. 27 @ Dallas Cowboys 8:30 PM W Week 9 Sun. Nov. 2 @ Minnesota Vikings Week 10Bye Week W Week 11 Sun Nov. 16 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers L Week 12 Sun Nov. 23 @ San Francisco 49ers W Week 13 Sun Nov. 30 @ Indianapolis Colts L Week 14 Sun Dec. 7 vs. St. Louis Rams L Week 15 Sun Dec. 14 @ New York Giants W Week 16 Sat. Dec. 20 vs. Philadelphia Eagles W Week 17 Sun. Dec. 28 vs. Dallas Cowboys Put me on record at 10-6 and clinching the 3rd seed with a week 16 victory over the Iggles. |

Re: Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
Redskins seem to be one of the most unpredictable teams in the NFL. People see us either going 3-13 again or some predictions have us going 11-5 or even 12-4.
I think they finish around 8-8 or anything around that like 7-9 or 9-7. Giants and Eagles will probably be better than us this year but it will be close. |

Re: Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
I'm not the most optimistic, but we could be really good quite easily. I think we'll show a little this season, but in the end, fall a little short of a playoff berth. Of course, right now pretty much every fan around the world thinks their team has done enough in the offseason to either "show a little" or make the playoffs, so predictions are a little useless, but yet... fun.
WIN at Houston WIN vs Jacksonville LOSS at Philadelphia WIN vs New York Giants LOSS vs Seattle LOSS at Arizona WIN vs Tennessee LOSS at Dallas LOSS at Minnesota WIN vs Tampa Bay LOSS at San Francisco LOSS at Indianopolis LOSS vs St. Louis LOSS at New York Giants WIN vs Philadelphia WIN vs Dallas So... 7-9, 3rd in the division. |

Re: Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
I too am a big believer in Gruden. As FRLPG said, the guy wins.
WIN at Houston WIN vs Jacksonville WIN at Philadelphia WIN vs New York Giants WIN vs Seattle LOSS at Arizona LOSS vs Tennessee LOSS at Dallas LOSS at Minnesota WIN vs Tampa Bay LOSS at San Francisco LOSS at Indianopolis WIN vs St. Louis WIN at New York Giants WIN vs Philadelphia WIN vs Dallas We come out like gangbusters. Big win against Seattle and the post-big game let down turns into midseason slump but recover in time to sweep our last three division games. 10-6; 5-1 in the division - NFC East Champs. Win the WC game; loss in Divisional Round. Pass the Kool-Aid, I am running low.

That being said, I'd be pretty happy with anything over 7-9. If they manage 10-6, I'll be ecstatic. |

Re: Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
Here's how I see it:
WIN at Houston WIN vs Jacksonville LOSS at Philadelphia WIN vs New York Giants LOSS vs Seattle LOSS at Arizona WIN vs Tennessee WIN at Dallas WIN at Minnesota WIN vs Tampa Bay LOSS at San Francisco LOSS at Indianopolis WIN vs St. Louis WIN at New York Giants LOSS vs Philadelphia WIN vs Dallas So 10-6. Spilt with Philly and sweep Dallas (who I expect to be bad -- 5-11 bad) and the Giants (they will be 7-9 again). Of course, I predicted 11-5 last year, so....

Re: Prediction time! the Pre PreSeason Prediction thread
I posted the same outcome in the Training Camp thread. Here's mine:
LOSS at Houston WIN vs Jacksonville LOSS at Philadelphia WIN vs New York Giants LOSS vs Seattle LOSS at Arizona WIN vs Tennessee LOSS at Dallas WIN at Minnesota WIN vs Tampa Bay 7 LOSS at San Francisco LOSS at Indianopolis LOSS vs St. Louis LOSS at New York Giants WIN vs Philadelphia WIN vs Dallas 7 - 9, hopefully good performance by the O, solid Specials, and we clearly set our fixes for the D (including DC) in the 2015 offseason.

I like the optimism Matty! Quote:
I happen to agree with Sammy's predictions pretty much to a T. Well done good sir. I do think if things go extremely right though, it could turn out 9-7.

Well, I predicted a 7-9 record (mirroring Sammy's prediction), but I didn't expect us to be this bad. At least I was realistic about this team for the most part. It's fun to look back at these types of things and see who was being realistic and who were drinking the kool-aid.
