Concerns about next sunday..

As long as we take them seriously, I don't think there will be a problem.

HAIL TO THE SKINS!

CHEERS!

NONE. It does no good for me to worry I've got enough gray hair. I will be at the game helping all I can when Eli is trying to call a play!! My only problem is I have a better chance distracting the guys in the Goodyear plimp than players on the field. Hell, I'm closer to the field sitting at home than I am in my seats but I would not miss it for the world.

I think we need to hit Eli early.... Get Smoot back healthy and get the lead in the first half, the way there season is going they'll pack it up by halftime....

Coming out flat is my biggest concern. People are totally underestimating the Giants defense too. They are totally capable of kicking it into gear for one game.

I'm a bit concerned about our run blocking without Randy Thomas. I remember how bad ass our run game was in 2005 with him in there, and then when he broke his leg all of a sudden we couldn't run anything. He's huge on the pulls.

Our offense keys off the run, so we need to figure out a way to move the ball. Towards the end of the game against the Eagles, we were running pretty well with Fabini in there. Hopefully that continues, we'll need it to.

But against the Giants? Not much on their team scares me, to be honest. I think we'll go get this one.

I don't have any concerns. This will be one of the easiest games on our schedule. Not that I'm saying it will be a "cake walk", but this will be a win no doubt.

So if I need to find a concern, my concern is that we don't lose any more starters to injury. We're already down too many important people, we don't need any more injuries.

wilsowilso · 09-19-2007, 06:19 PM

We need to win the turnover battle. If we don't we could easily have a major letdown.

I'm concerned about spilling my $9.00 beer while singing HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!!

Give him some credit. He played better against Philly. But he is going to have his hands full with Burress and Tomer. Those are my concerns.

Beemnseven · 09-19-2007, 11:31 PM

I think it's got to be coverage in the secondary. I know, I know -- they've done well so far. But in all honesty, of the two games we've played so far, Miami had the most fearsome passing attack only because of Trent Green. The Eagles have NOBODY to throw to other than Westbrook.

So this is the first real threat we've faced through the air.

Coming out flat is a legit concern -- it pains me to say it, but ... it's happened a few times under Gibbs II. This team better not have completely spent their intensity after Monday night's win at Philly.

That, and the Giants always seem to find a spark against us at least once a year. We can thank our lucky stars that we won't have Tiki Barber to deal with anymore. That alone helps our case considerably.
