Russel Wilson is a better QB. period

Wilson is overrated. Least Mode is a joke. Sherman is an empty chatterbox. Earl Thomas is a pu$$y.

We're gonna rip those pretender Seachickens apart!

[DynamiteRave]

We got bent over by the suckass Giants. We'll need hospitalization after a Super Bowl calibur Seahawks team.

Seahawks - 90
Redskins - Don't even bother

[BaltimoreSkins]

I am changing my prediction, to much pessimism on the board. The defense shows up and holds their offense to only field goals.

Seahawks: 33
Skins: 17

I know right. I guess I'm still optimistic because I saw this team as a 7-9 or 6-10 type of team from the get go. 9-7 if everything went perfectly. This team is exactly what I thought it would be and much of that had to do with keeping Jim Haslett around. Bruce needs to be relieved of his GM duties at the end of the season, and moved into a cushy Pres of Operations type role.

What Bruce really needs to be relieved of is his position on deciding whether the Skins should challenge a play, he's terrible at making those calls.

I appreciate your bravado while I disagree with everything you posted above. Personally, I'm all out of bravado. Too many years of the Redskins sucking has finally worn me down.

If form holds, the Seahawks should kick the living daylights out of us in our own stadium, as if playing at home has meant anything to the Redskins for at least ten years.

I am very disappointed in the state of this team and this franchise. I have absolutely no confidence that we can become a winning franchise within the next few years. We may have a surprise win against a better opponent from time to time, but it certainly won't be in a nationally televised game in which we have established a tradition of sucking.

Here is part of the burden the Redskins bring into this game:

Pass defense - Sucks
Pass Protection - Sucks
Penalties - Sucks
Turnovers - Sucks
Special Teams - Sucks

Other than blind faith, karma, or the rules of probability and chance, what would lead any of us to believe that we could beat the NFL Champions on Monday night?

I predict this is going to be one of those years where the first half goes terribly, terribly wrong. Then after we have a terrible record Jay Gruden flips out on them and they get their shit together just enough for us to finish somewhere between 5-11 and 8-8. Unfortunately that means this week will be part of the downward slide.

Judging by how he was on Hard Knocks. I imagine he's not holding back now with a 1-3 record. I'm quite certain they are getting their asses chewed out.

Also, you are the last person I expected to give up so soon.

I'm not giving up entirely on the season. If we can get some guys healthy and get things on track who knows, maybe .500?

But for this game I'm not holding out much hope. I'll be surprised if it's not a double digit smack down.

[over the mountain]

anyone who thinks the seahawks are going to win obviously has trouble seeing into the future.

leave your best attire at home on monday night ladies and gentlemen, because we have an ass kicking party to go to and it aint gonna be pretty.

RW is due for a catastrophic injury of catastrophic proportions.
Sherman is an a-hole.
Okung is bust (per seahawk neophyte fans)
Kam is over hyped.
Earl Thomas is the only guy that is legit but she is only 1 strong piece on a piece of shit defense.
Lynch wears hair extensions. An end part of your dread DOES NOT get pulled out like that unless that is where his extension was braided onto. seriously, what guy would ever 1) wear hair extensions and 2) fake your dreads and take short cuts. people with beautiful natural dreads take a long time to grow and care for. its a source of pride but phony-ass lynch has to cheat and have some black yarn braided into his ends? what a bum

i hate this team. i hate seattle.

on monday night the world gets re-introduced to the MFing redskins

Someone had to shine light into the darkness of this board. I'm choosing blind faith.

That story got so overhyped/misreported. He's not making those decisions. He's up in the booth but not making the call.

The primary people involved are Wes Phillips, Kirk Olivadotti and Ultimately Jay Gruden

Good man! I'm glad you're here.

Unfortunately for me, I just can't go with blind faith anymore. This team plays hard. I respect that. When we play well, I can usually deal with a close loss. But last Thursday night was such a debacle, featuring all of the same weaknesses we all know about and have been seeing for so long, that I just can't get up for the Seahawks game.

You know what BOHICA stands for? To me, that describes what I think is going to happen to us for the second week in a row, this time versus the Seahawks. I would rather this game be played in an unlighted coal mine at night than on national TV.
