Redskins vs. Steelers predictions

[skinsnut]

The more redskins comments I read, the more I get worried.
Almost every comment mentioned by anyone in the Skins org includes a mention of either the Redskins injuries or the bye.

Injuries that concern me, Springs, Samuels, Taylor, Moss....
Those our our top players folks..thats a tall order....not to mention the team may be looking forward to the bye too much.

If the Skins dont attack this game with an "all or nothing" attitude, they aren't going to win it. If the Skins win...they will be 7-2 and capable of handling a couple NFC east losses....if they lose...6-3 aint terrific going into a couple of NFC east rivalry games that would be easy to lose.

This Steelers game is a statement game.
Winning here with all these injuries would be HUGE....
I hate to be a doubter but the number 1 Defense is going to be a monster test for Zorn to stick with the run, and for Campbell to know when to take a sack.
I will be watching though my fingers when the Skins have the ball...especially if Moss and Samuels are out.

I feel the exact same way. I have a bad feeling in my gut about this one. Their D is gonna be all over us. I just hope Jason escapes injury free. Our defense is gonna have to be superb to give us a chance IMO. Low scoring game, I'm not going to predict a winner. I could see it being a 17-14 type of game either way.

Both Jasons, is Jason Taylor playing?

I was referring to Cambpell. Jason Taylor is not playing.

Ok. I'd like to add on to my prediction, that the skins have done what happens so often in pro and college sports, in where they rise to the challenge of playing a good team, and play down to a lesser team, which is what we've been doing lately. I think, because it is such an important matchup against such a strong team, that we will be able to beat them.

All I predict is that nobody can distinguish between Santonio and Santana the entire game. (Remember Billick last week? Expect more of that. )

I was on a Steelers board and they were giving Steelers players Indian names.... so I gave a few of our guys names dealing with the steel industry. I honestly only do about 2 hours of work a day...
