Redskins vs. Giants pre-game thread

[irish]

Both teams have key players injured so I dont think this will be an all-time classic. The skins are at home and that will be the difference. The Skins will barely slip by the Giants in an ugly game.

60/50?
......OH HELL YAH....I'm in!

1. Rush the football and gain 100 or more yards
2.Hold the Giants under 100 yards rushing.
3. When the turnover battle.
4.Score a TD on special teams ( Punt Return, KR, or Block Punt TD)
5.When the time of possession.
6. Most important keep the Giants from sacking Rex.
7.Come out in New Uniforms. New season new attitude
If we can do these things we should win the game.
My prediction Redskins 27 - Giants 16
Hail to Redskins Nation and God Bless America

Confucius is that you? All your points are helpful to win every game. But you first 2 are most important (outside your odds): Run the ball and stop the run. This is especially huge this year. Run the ball to take it outta Rex's hands to avoid stupid mistakes and control the line of scrimage. And stop the run to again control the line of scrimage and shut down apart of opponent game which we should be able to do alot easier than our secondary handling the pass. We must do both in order to win this season.

I think Rexy will be steady, but not great and Hightower's fantasy value will go through the roof after we shred the Giants' defense.


Redskins 27
Giants 13

The G men will move the ball if our O doesn't keep them off the field. The D may be banged up, but they still have all their weapons on offense - Manning, Manningham, Nicks, Bradshaw, Jacobs.

Our O needs to dominate time of possession, which shouldnt be impossible with our running game and the Giant's D being banged up like it is. I think they'll score more than 13 points.

SInce you ****ing fools can't drop it and move on pretty much like I suggested. I'm going to throw my final two cents in. If you have a issue with what I said, send me a PM, don't continue the garbage. You two can continue your flag waving shit elsewhere, but don't do it in this thread. If you are so worried by Muhammad blowing you up, then shut the **** up, stay home and continue swallowing that bullshit whole that the media/governmet feeds you. There are bigger dangers out there than terrorists. In fact, lets tally up the numbers on terrorists related deaths and then do the same for alcohol related deaths and then get back at me which YOU think needs the "high alert".

NOW ****ING DROP IT! This is a thread about football, not high terrorist alerts.

There are credible threats this weekend, but lets not lock ourselves in the house. Get out there and enjoy your life, if you live in fear of a terrorist attack then they have already won.[/QUOTE]


Well said, true words very true.

What about the WHEN instead of WIN.

I do expect the Skins to win - decidedly. However, there are two areas that I am leary about.

1. O-line - We are done if we can't establish a good running game. If the O-line can't open holes for the backs, and we are forced into 3rd and long a lot, I think Rex is in for a long day.

2. Pass coverage - not just the DBs but the LBs as well. I just really don't know what to expect since I didn't get to see any preseason games. But the player turnover from last year is big and I have a hard time believing they will have their communication down with the shortened offseason. I'm hoping they surprise me...that being said, if we can get to ELI and stop the run I'm not as worried.

Good to see all the emotion in this thread...I love America and all your opinions on the game and everything else. Wish I was there to go to the game and feel that energy.

NC_Skins - been looking all over ever since I got here, but you're right... no WMD so far :cheeky-sm

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

Ok. back to football. The Skins win. lol
