Exactly what I was going to say.

Obviously I want to beat the Pack, but even if we lose, I'm not gonna get worked up over it. We can beat the Lions at home, and beat the Raiders anywhere, 2-2 at the bye with 5 divisional games remaining will put us in plenty good position.

(Note - I'm not saying those are guaranteed wins - but I'll still be confident going into week 3 win or lose in week 2.)

I don't understand why Rob Jackson doesn't get any love, after showing tons of potential last season?

B/c he's suspended right now. When he DOES come back, I imagine we'll discuss his role in the upcoming game.

Totally spaced that

If Orakpo can stay healthy he's the unquestioned starter, but like lots have said it would be nice to see him make a bigger impact. Every game.

Game will be a close one, I don't see either team getting too far ahead. We win the TO battle.

24 Skins
17 Packers

Thought Jenkins was suspended for the first four games?
Edit: chalk me up as one of those people who forgets. I had to check the roster to see if we had a lb named jenkins. Lol

He's talking about Brandon.

We drafted Brandon Jenkins in the 5th round this year. And I would say that you should be happy. He would have been a 2nd rounder (Possibly late first) had he come out after his junior year, but he went back for his senior year and got injured in the first game and missed the rest of the season. He could be a steal for us.

I think we see much more of what we saw in the second half than what we saw in the first.
I 110% believe Griff being rusty had a trickle down effect on the entire team including the d. Kept them on the field way to long. I say he comes out on fire this week and we never look back. Almo redeems himself too.
The Skins - 38
The Wack - 21
Also the birds lose to the Chargers and I no longer have to hear about the genius that is Chip Kelly. He got lucky that Griff was not up to game speed - as was evident in the second half when we kicked their ass.

Cool. Missed the entire draft and was out of the loop for alot of the pre season, but thats a story for another thread. Interested to see him play now - thanks.

I have to give the edge to Green Bay in this one. They are playing at home and coming off of a tough loss to an outstanding team. They will be ready for the Skins. I can't bring myself to pick GB but I'm not feeling confident about this game.

A win over the Packers in GB would be a big boost to the Skins.

I am wondering if Green Bay fans are thinking this is an easy win due to the way we played on Monday.
