Week 3: Redskins v Giants

[NoCalHail]

This is one of those "prove we are a different team" kind of games.

This team has a habit of laying eggs in New York, especially after they seem to have some kind of momentum. Also, at 0-2, the Giants are going to be pushing the desperation button, probably going to be opening up their offense trying to push the ball downfield to get points.

Historically this is a game we feel good about going into for good reason, and then get humbled on national TV and come out of thinking "same ol' redskins, ugh"

I think on paper and from what we have seen from both teams so far, we have a great opportunity to go in there and beat this NYG team up, but finishing drives and getting TDs, not FGs will be essential.

I will go out on a limb here and say:

Redskins 23
NYG 16

Lets do thiiiiiiiiiiis!

Teams playing road games on Thursday night on a short week in a city with two NFL teams and home to a current presidential candidate are 6-31-1 against the spread.

It is a huge trap game.

That being said, we are going to win.

They have a banged up DL, and injuries at LB and CB. I think we will move the ball similar to the previous weeks, keep it close and win a tight one.

I will also predict our D keeps Larry Donnell's name from being mentioned as a pro bowl TE. Polar opposite of last year.

I pray that it was sarcasm.. If not who tf thought of that was relevant to track??

My guess is it is just the all time record of the away team on Thursday night.
