How Far Can They Go

Make your predictions here, Packers game scores or how deep the Skins will Go. Predict it here, give your reasons or not, but we want predictions. Lots of em!

I am feeling pretty good about this weekend: Skins 33, Packers 24 (score closer than the game plays out)

With Seattle beating the Vikings, we go to Arizona. That's a tough one, and I think Arizona beats us. Skins 24, Cards 31


What sayeth the Mob (and what would Trample say)

Re: How Far Can They Go

I see it exactly as you do, C. A step forward in the process, we beat the Pack. But we're not hanging with the big boys just yet. 2nd round loss.

But next year... Ohhh baby fire up the bandwagon!

How Far Can They Go

Vibe I get is W over packers and then done.

I will say though, the way the offense is playing right now wouldn't be surprised if they went even further...so many weapons on offense but I think not good enough/healthy enough on defense.

Beating GB for this year's team and getting to face one of the big boys in 2nd round would be a good season.

Re: How Far Can They Go

I'm gonna reach a little, I got us going 2-1.

We get past the Pack & then pull a big upset on the road.

I think getting Licht back helps to bring out the running game again.

LOOK at the talent that SM brought to the table this year? Really solid. Jay and company did a great job using it.
Cannot wait to see what they can do with another off-season...........

Re: How Far Can They Go

This is what I posted on the other wildcard thread
I think we are favored by a point over GB and we should be.How does GB lose to the Vikings at home with Teddy passing for less than a 100 yards and AP isnt a big factor either?
But GB has playoff exp,coaches have playoff exp,etc.Can Gruden and Cousins handle the pressure? Gruden doesnt need to get cute like he did with Jackson in the Dallas game.I would like him to add a few new wrinkles to the offense to show GB something different,but basically it just boils down to Cousins playing the same way he has for these last 6 games.Receivers have to hold onto the ball,cant be hitting them right in the hands and then them throwing them up in the air as in the NE game.The defense will probably give up a lot of yards,but we have been getting the turnovers,so we gotta hope that continues.
If things go like they have been,I say we win in a close game,27-24.If we have some adversity,turn the ball over a couple times,then we lose in a close one.And we have to score points when we get the turnovers!! Cant be like the 1st cowboy game

I've just looked up the weather forecast and I dont like it,looks like 80% chance of rain for saturday.Obviously thats going to affect both teams but I think rain probably helps the team thats better at running the ball.GB is better at running the ball then us,and they are better against the run.If kory starts hopefully we can reverse this

Re: How Far Can They Go

All the way, it is the NFL anyone can win on any given Sunday. The Redskins weakness is their CB's due to injury, have a solid OL (probably as good or better than AZ), got solid receivers and somehow they will find their running game. D is playing better, my man Preston Smith is making his presence felt at the right time. Main thing is, this team is confident, fired up and thriving on being disrespected. This a different team from 4 weeks ago.

Re: How Far Can They Go

I see us beating GB and then beating CAR! I think we lose to AZ in the title game though.

28- 21 against GB

Garbage in; garbage out. **** their simulations. We're taking out Green Bay on Sunday.

I honestly think we have a shot like u said in the nfl it's all about who is hot and we are the hottest team in the nfc right now.

Re: How Far Can They Go

I think we will beat GB and move on to round two. If we had to go to Seattle and or Arz I think we would be competitve but lose the game.

Things seem to be falling into place, so you never know...(Chris Berman voice)
We could go all the WAY!

Re: How Far Can They Go

These threads make me nervous. Let's just enjoy the ride. This season has already been a success in my eyes, and like many have said, if we manage to win even one playoff game, it will be a HUGE success!

Re: How Far Can They Go

It's not always the best team that wins, often it's the hottest. Why not us?
