Redskins/Giants Predictions

SouperMeister · 09-01-2008, 01:41 AM

Giants 24
Skins 10

It's unfortunate that we have the first game in the Meadowlands coming off the Giants SB victory. I expect early struggles for our new WCO. Almost every QB struggles in his first year in the WCO, and I don't expect different from Campbell. And don't tell me that the success he had in one year of the WCO at Auburn is a guarantee that he'll hit the ground running - the windows that NFL QBs have to fit balls are much smaller than those that college QBs have.

Not to mention he had a stud duo of HBs behind him at Auburn.

So it appears that Taylor may not play...Randle El has a fracture bone in his hand...this is not looking good.

Giants 28 Skins 3

our offense scares mes we havent look good the last 2 preseason games. we only have 3 WR's that have any experience Moss, Randle El who has a hurt arm, and Thrash, that is scary. Thomas will not help us and Kelly is out for at least two weeks. So we only dress 4 WRS i dont understand why didnt keep McMullen.

TheMalcolmConnection · 09-01-2008, 08:35 AM

I think it'll be a shockingly low scoring game with both offenses (especially our's) having early season jitters.

Redskins 13, Giants 10.

coggs · 09-01-2008, 08:41 AM

Giants 2045, Skins 6. They get an extra point blocked.

theJBexperience · 09-01-2008, 08:44 AM

Giants 10
Redskins 6

This is going to be an ugly opener for both teams, but I think Plax will be the difference for the Gints.

I don't know how the Skins offense went from looking pretty good the first preseason games to looking terrible the final two. Based on what I saw the final two games I'll go with Giants 20 Skins 10

I didn't see any of the pre-season games but can anwer that question. It is simple, it is PRE-SEASON. Sometimes I feel the only people who actually take pre-season seriously are the people on this site. I remember Spurrier's first year. The Skins first offense looked like a well oiled machine in its first pre-season game and some here thought you had the second coming of the 99 Rams.

Normally, I completely agree with you... the preseason means pretty much nothing to predict how teams will do in the regular season. But! I did see all 5 preseason games and it was fairly shocking to see how the offense was so in sync the first 3 games and in the final 2 games they looked like a high school offense out there.

As for the optimism... I'll be optimistic once the Skins show it on the field. I want to see them play consistent and good, and cut out most of the dumb playing. I want to seem them play good, not just talk about it.

Nice to see all the early season optimism.
