Question about Commentator predictions (Redskins)

Is it me or does commentators always pick against the Redskins whether it is on tv or on the radio. I swear I have never seen an anonymous pick that the Redskins would beat anyone. If the Redskins played the Dolphins. There would be atleast 3 people that would say the Dolphins would win.

Does ALOT of people dislike the Redskins or something? If so, Why?

Even Mark Schelereth picks against us. That's fine with me, less pressure on the team as they fly low under the radar.

week two.. someone picked us to beat philly. haha. i can't remember who, tom jackson i think...

Yeah, I think it was T.J in week two other than that I never see anyone pick us.

Mortenson picks the skins to win alot, maybe a fan.

the guys on PTI picked us to win but they do work in DC so...................

I cant blame them. We all know that we should lost 1 game this season and how we have choked the rest of our losses. Heck with all of our injuries it is a wonder how we have won 7 games. HTTR!!!

Joe Schad picked us to win the SB in the preseason, said we looked good on paper

Well, we're currently a 500 team, and from what i've seen we get a lot of credit making picks hard for people, but I feel like we've done okay in that department. What I find funny, is during this week Ive heard people here say the skins will win because they have something to play for -- if I remember correctly, MN wants to go to the playoffs too =p

as of yesterday, 7 of 8 picked the vikes on espn.com
Salisbury hadn't made his picks yet. Mort was our only pick.

That's fine, the PTI guys work in DC so they have an idea of this team's character & experience. I think that's what it comes down to, we have vet leadership at qb & on D, while they are more of an up & coming team that's learning its way. Our Skins will be confident & Gibbs will have them ready. I really feel good about this game, much more so than next week's.
