Just this game against the Eagles? You're not predicting us to go 16-0 are you?

Sorry dude, but struggling against the Dolphins isn't exactly the mark of a turn-around. There's still a lot of work to do, and one week isn't enough time to work out all the obvious kinks. Expect Jim Johnson to have something special planned for Stephon Heyer or whomever starts at RT.

Don't forget folks, the 'Phins had the ball on our 8-yard line towards the end of the fourth quarter before they self-destructed with penalties. That game could have easily gone the other way, and the mood around here would be quite a bit different.

The way the Eagles have had our number over the last few years, (except 2005), I don't see any way we can win this game in Philly -- at home, we have a chance. But not this week.

Eagles 28
Skins 13

I now live in South Carolina and so I don't to watch Redskins Report anymore (or even know if it is still on), but every year Sonny Jurgensen would pick the Skins to go like 7-9 or 9-7 at the beginning of the year but when they did their predictions prior to each game he would say "Redskins win". Obviously the two statements were irreconcilable. It's tough to bring yourself (or myself) to say out loud that you ever think the Skins will lose. Obviously this is a fan site and I wouldn't advise anyone to lay money on the predictions given here. Just a thought.

The game could have went in several different directions. If the Skins came away with a TD instead of a FG on the drive that Jansen got hurt, it could have been a different game. If the Dolphins 4th down gamble at the end of the first half didn't work out... different game.

I agree, our offense has to finish drives with touchdowns. If we keep on settling for field goals I think we are going to have to settle for another sub
.500 season.
