Let me see if I can get this correct.....I bet you are one of the guys/gals that complain about going to other teams message boards and complain about how the homers won't wake up and smell the coffee even when all the media outlets are picking them to lose...right.

I guess we all could be homers also and say the Skins are going to win but that would lead to a dull web site and you would have no one to argue with. Some of us prefer to use are brain and be a little subjective about each game and analyze how we could win or lose the game.

If your refering to the poll done ...I'm a homer. I picked Skins. I always will. but to analyze the game I'm only being honest with myself as well as the rest of the people on this board. As far as Sandtraps second oppinion of the outcome....I for one don't see it. Unless we lay down like dogs I don't see it. We have the better defense, but we can be beat (look at the Giants game). Our coach (Zorn) is finding ways to get people in the open and put new wrinkles in each game...enough to make Dallas say "I wonder what he will throw at us this week." It's not a fluke that we beat the team with the best Offense last week. All we have to do is make sure our offense keeps the ball and use up most of the clock hopefully causing their D to get tired fast. Our D needs to keep creating more 3 and outs for us.

Lots of points in this one. Cowboys win the game. Redskins cover. The total goes OVER.
