Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

well, i feel like our secondary could get exposed, but they do have a lack of receivers, so we may match up allright...

I worry about campbell, though... i hope he can pull down his short throws and make some plays against this defense.

Mainly, we're playing the eagles, at philly, on monday night when they're coming off a loss... they're going to be pumped to beat our ass...

we HAVE to match their intensity and maintain it throughout the entire game or we will get beaten!

im not worried

[quote=hooskins;352534]Um our lack of passing offense and just the Eagles coming off a loss.[/quote]

The Eagles coming off a loss is a great point. It's their home opener, McNabb is back, and oh yeah, it's MNF. That place is going to be going ape shit. I'm a ball of nerves. I have been so unproductive at work today.

pretty much sums up my worries.

if we will play bump and run as the packers did against their recievers

Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

I am nervous because I need 42 fantasy points between ARE and Portis to manage a tie in my game

Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

fallin behind the fucking Cowboys.......that would suck, cause a win tonight and not a guarentee, but a good chance win next week, would give us some damn good confidence going into the by week.......

When is the last time the Skins play bump and run? The only person that could do that would be Springs. Carlos "Cushion" Rogers, plays atleast 5-7 yards back in man. Also we tend to play a good amount of Cover 3, or atleast we did last game.

whats funny is that in madden, jamming is a his specialty... I saw that and wondered if they ever watched him play, lol...

Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

I'm more worried about their deep passing game. I think with the speed we have on defense at the LB position right now, we don't need to worry about Westbrook.

2003 maybe?

Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

I'm excited, though, because for some reason it seems like Sean Taylor really shows up against the Eagles... I wanna see some huge hits and some turnovers being forced on D to take the crowd out of the game early...

Re: What makes you most nervous about tonight's game??
 

I'm worried because its on ESPN and I forgot to pay my cable bill.

It's ok to think your teams going to win, but there are things skins fans need to be worried about. I think we have an improved team, but here is what I'm worried about:

Jason Campbell: Time to start showing some signs that he has "It"

Our cornerbacks: McNabb is coming off a bad game, he's going to throw it 35 times or more.

Bryan Westbrook: I'm worried about those screen passes and draws, oh yeah, he's pretty fast.

Our team as a whole: We haven't stepped up in division games on the road for a long time. We won in Philly in 2005 but that was w/out McNabb and we barely won that.

Joe Gibbs: Joe, if I remember right those 80's teams scored alot of points along w/ running the ball. Time for us to start trying to score some points, instead of just trying to "stay in it."

I do think we can win this game and i do like our team. We've only seen one week so there are a lot of unanswered questions. Go skins!!

[quote=The Zimmermans;352537]The fact that the game is MNF.....where we always crap the pantry[/quote]

For reference, [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monday_Night_Football:_All-Time_Standings"]according to wikipedia [/URL]we are 26 - 29 (.473 winning %) on MNF. And the Eagles are 20 - 15...but who cares, especially after The Miracle in 2005.
