They're from Miami.

They've got some serious heat down there. There's no way they should have been worn out due to the weather.[/quote]

Yeah, that's what I was saying too. Thing is, Miami really is more of a finesse defense, so that can be worn down by a physical offense.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

I predict Al Saunders starts to show his value with this game. Loved his play calling against the Dolphins. He recognized our Pass attack wasn't clicking all the way and went hard with the run. Think our run / pass ratio was well into the run which was a good sign. Think he got cute too often last year and forced things.

Redskins enter a very hostile environment and Philly fans have not fear of the skins. McNabb and company have had so much luck and success against Washington I can't blame them. We come out smash mouth with Sellers leading hard nosed rushes that open up deep play action. We need quick releases because the pass rush and blitz package are extremely tought to beat. Our coaching staff knows this and rolls Campbell out and uses his quickness to our advantage. Portis and Betts have another solid outing and our rushing attack takes center stage again.

Defense continues to impress and get back to their top 10 form from 2004 and 2005.

I loved his playcalling too last week. Especially on that last drive. We just ran it down Miami's throat. That's Redskin football! I think AS, Gibbs and Buges are on the same page. But I'd be concerned if we get behind a bit this week.

I'm concerned also.

I'd love to see Skins come out with the JUMBO package and give them a steady diet of Sellers with Portis / Betts right behind him.

Punting the ball isn't all that bad early. Defense needs to step up and actually take the ball back and get some field position.

Please don't.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

how exactly are we going to contain McNAbb? He pretty much owns us each time we play...
Our usual keeping an LB on him at all times hasn't been working...in the past our best bet was to wait for him to be injured...what's changed?


That said, I expect Rocky and London to do a good job, but we are 2 for 10 against Phili since 2002 (both wins came in '05), which means we lost last year twice...in the first game McNabb tossed for 256 and 2 tds (imagine if they weren't ahead by so much...) and he was out of the second game...

just saying i'm worried...

Keep your shirt on, I don't think you will be needing to do that.

[quote=BrunellMVP?;351490]how exactly are we going to contain McNAbb? [/quote]


We don't have to, his knee, groin, chest and whatever other injuries he's recovering from will do that for us. Mainly his knee. Seriously, he looked bad physically last week.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

skins-22
eagles-11

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

Based on past experience. Based on the fact that Donovan is healthy, and angry that he lost last week to the Packers.

31 Philly
17 Skins

We keep it close through the first half, and falter midway through the 3rd quarter. I predict McNabb suffers some type of injury which will keep him inactive for the next 6 weeks.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

somebody is philthy in here:) all i,m saying is this should be the typical nfc east slugfest defensively...

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

I predict at the break we will be 2 -1.

Gotta say I think we will beat the Giants, but can't say the same about the Eagles.

I would love to be proven wrong.

Can't see us losing to the Giants, with or without a healthy "Oh-my" Manning.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

3-0 at the break buddy...we're better than the eagles!

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

23-14 in convincing fashion. They are completely unable to stop our run and we score at least one TD attacking the weak spot vacated by Sheppherd.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

It's gonna be ANOTHER defensive battle. I don't expect a bunch of points from either team.

Skins 13

Dont be suprised if we are 6-0 going into the OCT. 28 showdown with the Pats.

Same thing with the Panthers being 6-0 going into their OCT. 28 showdown with the Colts.

Those 4 being my final 4 this season for the conference championship games.

It's VERY possible. The Eagles game, which I think we can win is the toughest game until the Pats game.

We SHOULD (better be able to) beat the Giants, Lions, Packers and Cardinals.

THEN we get the Pats.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

Definately another Defensive battle. We find a way and pull it out on the fleeted foot of Shazaam.

Don't be surprised? I would be stunned if we did that.

Actually, this game coming up is similar to 2005 -- tough, hard fought defensive battle for the win in the opener, followed by a Monday night game against a division rival.

Man, what a statement the Redskins could make by marching into Philly and handing the Eagles their ass. If we can pull off a win, watch the Redskins become the "surprise" team of the early season.

Every game is tough, don't under estimate your opponent, The Lions and Cards are a lot better, Giants are hurting and Green Bay is over rated and I'm not a believer.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

Teams score a lot more on Monday nights, usually. Plus I also think Moss will have a monster game, like he likes to do on MNF. Moreover since apparently the Skins are trying to give me a heart attack or just plain drive me into an early grave I think the game will be close.

Call it 30-27 Skins in Overtime.

Solid defense and a strong running game.

I just feel it needed posted again for all the supposible realist Redskins fans who doubted Redskins to win.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

I had the Skins 20 right.

Guess I gave the Eagles too much credit though, I thought they'd score at least 1 TD.

Give it up for our D! 25 points in 2 games, only 1 TD.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

[quote=JDESKIN;353510]I just feel it needed posted again for all the supposible realist Redskins fans who doubted Redskins to win.[/quote]

According to the poll on ESPN last night the whole damn country thought the Eagles were going to win.

I think last night was a classic case of people going off of last year's expectations.

Well, 2006 is over and the 2007 Skins are going to be a force to contend with.

Re: Redskins vs. Eagles predictions
 

What a satisfying win.

I think we are witnessing the growth of a trune NFL Qb, one who could be with us for years.

The Defense was astounding.

Laron, fletcher, all great.

Can't wait till next week.

Also, Bugel deserves to be in the HOF just for the ability to have linesman ready to pop in TWO weeks in a row, seamlessly.

Both sides look ready to play.

Now, lets look to (and not past) the Giants.

O-3 sounds great!
