2004 Schedule Released (Merged Threads)

[Gmanc711]

I really think the way our schedule is set up plays out in our favor. Alot of our " Tough Games " are right at home. I dont know if anyone has noticed who we have for our last game, but its the Vikings at home in Janruary. If that isnt a gimmie I dont know what is, cause they suck outside.

5pm for the 49ner game? That's an odd time!

[SKINSnCANES]

Yea thats the Saturday times for you.

[kingerock]

Saturday in San Fran @ 5:00 is a 7:00 prime time game on the east coast. I'm sure it's a ratings thing for television viewers.

Also, I plan on going to the Dec 26 in Dallas being i'm from Texas. (Redskins fan for 20 years, lived 2 hours from Dallas almost my whole life!)

It may be nice to meet up with some other skins fans at the game!

[SKINSnCANES]

I might have a job in Texas, if I do my family is going ot have to come to Texas this year and we're all going to the Dallas game.

[SKINSnCANES]

Oh, I was thinking about the strength of schedule. It makes sense that Philly and Dallas have weakers schedules becuase they play us, a weaker team, and we play them, a stronger team. (or so our records from last year indicate, we shall see though.)

Our schedule looks fairly easy, compared to last year, problem is you never know what teams will turn it on in which year! Here's to the playoffs!

and who's gonna get hurt. Imagine how different the first 2 regular season games might have been if Pettington and Vick hadn't gotten hurt.

[SKINSnCANES]

I hope we dont get to many injuries this year... of couse you hope that every year but injuries are what these league comes down to a lot of the time.

instead of San Fran and tampa bay Phili plays ST. Louis and Carolina and Dallas plays New Orleans and Seattle instead of San Fran and Tampa Bay. I can understand Dallas' schedule being considered easier but not Phili's cuz I mean lets face it St. Louis and Carolina r much better teams than Tampa Bay and definitely San Fran. So the strength of scedule ratins don't make much sense to me. Plus about playing Minnesota, they may not play as well outside as they do indoors (lets hope its cold as crap out), but we still don't have anyone who can cover Moss now. The only player we had that could stand a chance was Bailey so I think we r gonna see quite a few double and triple teams that game.

[SKINSnCANES]

Springs and Taylor perhaps...

[skinsfanthru&thru]

I'd love for that to work, but can either of them out jump moss? unfortunately I don't think we have anybody on the defensive side who can and thats pretty much all minnesota does.

[SKINSnCANES]

Taylor had a good verticle, springs is physically one of the most gifted corners in the NFL, he was just always injured. Hopefully Taylor will be getting to the ball before Moss does becuase he read the QB, and the QB didnt see him coming.

[SittingBull]

There schedules are ranked easier because they play us and the Giants twice who won 9 games total last year.

[Gmanc711]

A point on the strength of schedule, it really dosent matter. We play basically the same teams throughout, in the end, too, having the " Harder Schedule " might help us.
