The Next Four:StL, Cle, Det, and Pit

MTK · 10-06-2008, 10:07 AM

I'm still in shock we made it through the toughest stretch of the schedule at 4-1. Now comes some relief but the team can't let up. There's simply no reason (barring injuries) we shouldn't be sitting at 7-1 heading into the Pittsburgh game.

When we play our home games we need our fans to be LOUD!!!!!

I think this is the main key right here!!!! I have a few friends in the league, they all talk about FedEx and Seattle being loud as hell! All of you lucky enough to have tix HAIL THOSE SKINS FOR 4 QUARTERS!!!

I'd love to see a blowout or two along the way. These come from behind victories are exciting, but I'd love to see some 60 minutes of domination.

by the time the steeler game comes along,they should have most of their injured players back.i'm worried about that game,and the ram game.they have a new coach,and have had 2 weeks to plan for us.

After beating the Cowboys and Eagles on their turf we should be able to handle the Steelers. They are tough but we match up well with them.

The fans will be amped up at FedEx this year and the Skins will win all their home games. However, I think the Cle game will be tougher than the Steeler's game. They need to stay focused and don't take any team lightly.

STL better be ready b/c if I was a Redskin player in the locker room and heard McNabb what he said I'm ready to punish the next team we play. Thanks McNabb bulletin board material!!!

And to think, just a few weeks ago we felt like this:

dmek25 · 10-06-2008, 03:20 PM

ill tell you what is one of the keys. not turning the ball over. i cant believe the skins have played 5 games, without an offensive turnover. that is simply outstanding work

cochise · 10-06-2008, 04:06 PM

We just need to stay within ourselves. History teaches you when a favorite gets upset its usually turnovers that cause their demise. In any of those wins a Redskins TO could have swayed the outcome.

St. Louis is an awful, awful team. Been outscored on average in their four games like 36-10 per game. Barring major and almost miraculous changes by the new coach, the only way the Redskins lose this game, or its even within two touchdowns, is if we turn the ball over multiple times in our own end. I can't see this team having that kind of mental breakdown, even after two huge division wins.

Ruhskins · 10-06-2008, 05:11 PM

I like whoever said that they should treat the next games as if they're playing Dallas/Philly on the road. We don't want any upsets here, and we should not take these teams lightly, especially the ones desperate for a win.

There new coach is their defensive coordinator whose defense gives up an average of 34.8 points per game. Im not saying that the rams cant beat us but i'm not sold on Jim Haslett being their savior.

One game at a time and we CANNOT take any of these teams, esp the Rams, Browns and Lions for granted. These teams scare me more than the Cowboys and Eagles.
They got nothing to lose so they are going to play balls out!
