2008 Redskins Schedule

[Daseal]

SS -- How do your analysts project the redskins? I gotta say, 13-3 seems unreal. When was the last time we went 13-3? We have a brand new and unproven coach, the defense, our strong point, is under new leadership. I don't see this season turning out horribly well, but I see us be able to get progressive better.

13-3? Someone has been drinking a bit too much of that Kool-Aid. I'm just looking for any sign of Zorn's fingerprints being the right fit for this job and with that comes growing pains. Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

If I remember right, they see the Redskins as a talented team that should be about 10-6 and a wildcard team unless Zorn is in way over his head. They like Campbell a lot and think that Moss can have a big comeback year.

I'm one of those homers that feel like we'll win every game. This is why never do well in pick 'em contest. My heart wins over my head whenever
comes to Skins games. Guess over the years have overdosed on kool aid.

That sounds realistically optimistic. I think this team is between 7-11 wins. I wouldn't be surprised if we take a step backward or forward this year.

Bram's blog that was posted recently in a thread makes sense to me. He questions whether the D will be the same w/a new coach. It's a legitimate question, just cause Blache has been there doesn't mean as the head guy he will get the most out of what has been an overachieving unit under GW IMO.

Of course the O has many questions at this point & w/a new head coach, it's tough to make an accurate prediction on this team.

Back to the schedule, overall I think it weighs in our favor. You can't say in April whether it's tough or not based on the teams, cause they'll all change a lot during the season. Yeah we have road swing to finish the year, but our crucial div. games late in the year are at home & we have the bye at a good time. Can't wait for the draft!
