Redskins vs. Eagles predictions

[irish]

If this game was in Washington I would take the Skins but its not so I gotta pick Philly. I just dont see Philly losing their home opener on Mon night. If the Skins had a little more fire power on offense I might have picked them but they are still struggling to score. I think the crowd will be the difference causing the Skins O to make a turnover that loses the game.

Phila 17
Skins 10

Seriously, I watched the Eagles-Packers game last week and Philly looked HORRIBLE against a mediocre team.

I agree that Philly didnt look good but the game was in GB. For that matter, the Skins didnt look all that great (at home) against a below average Miami team.

Like I said if this game was in DC the Skins win but its not so they dont.

You keep saying "below" average Miami team. Yes, a below-average team with one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Philly got beat by a below-average team, one without even a RB they can rely on.

Miami's offense is not great, but we beat one of the top defenses. In fact, we ran all over them.

Philly should not be very hard for us to beat.

Based on last year's stats Miami has a good D. Maybe its different this year. Remember the Skins thought the D was great after 05 and they were terrible in 06. The Skins did what they needed to do to win last week and Philly didnt but this is a new week and a new game.

You are crazy if you think Philly will not be tough in Philly. Every game is tough in the NFL.
