Re: Schedule!!!
 

I love that bye, but I'd like to have played Dallas later in the year again.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I like it except playing philly in their house after their bye and playin indy in their house after their bye, and the giants in their place after their bye. That really sucks. I LOVE weeks one and two in primetime, love the season closing game on primetime against the G-men when they will be weak and tired from 13 stright weeks of football and i love our week 8 bye. Also really like our chances of going 3-0 to start the season.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

The finale with the Giants coming into FedEx for a nationally televised game on Saturday night will be awesome. The division could be decided right then, right there.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

NFL Network is nationwide, though I guess not everyone has cable.

Yes, definitely. And here's to Andre Carter welcoming Mike Vick back to the D.C. area!

Re: Schedule!!!
 

If you do not have NFL Network will it be broadcasted on ABC? Just like the Sunday Night Games did?

Re: Schedule!!!
 

[quote=dirthogs311]If you do not have NFL Network will it be broadcasted on ABC? Just like the Sunday Night Games did?[/quote]I don't think it will be. I believe last season they were just a repeat of the ABC games but I'm not sure. They did announce that the NFL Network would televise 8 games this season and you would think they would be exclusive to their Network.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

But I think they have to show your home team games either or ABC or UPN 20

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I receive the NFL network on Direct TV do most cable and satalite co carry the NFL Network? Just curious.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

Back to Back Texas games away in weeks 2 and 3? Might as well stay there...

I beleive most cable do. I know mine has it but you have to buy a certain package to get it.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

[quote=Hogroll]Back to Back Texas games away in weeks 2 and 3? Might as well stay there...[/quote]I noticed that myself good thing the Dallas game is the first one. Four of our last six games will be at home.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I like how it starts (the toughest game of the first 4 is @ Dallas where the skins are really going to need ST) and how it finishes (4 of the last 6 are @ home and the two away games are against STL & NO). The middle part of the schedule looks to be the most challenging (Games 5-10 include @NYG, @IND, @PHI & @TB) though having our bye in there will help. Getting to 11 wins means running the table at home and beating HOU, NO & STL.

[QUOTE=dirthogs311]But I think they have to show your home team games either or ABC or UPN 20[/QUOTE]
when a game is nationally televised on cable (ESPN), a local affiliate (in the DC area, usually Channel 7) will pick up the feed. Not sure that'll work with NFL Network games, but I guess we'll wait and see. I don't see why it wouldn't.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

Damn, Tampa Bay again - Not scared of, but a little bored of them. It's like they want to make that team the skins' rivals. This will be 5th time in 4 years that the redskins have played them - dating back to 2003.

Don't put it past Snyder to hire a college football field and base the team in of Texas for 10 days. Bet the payers would appreciate not having to fly twice.

I know we beat them in the Playoffs but I want to give them a real ass wipping at home again. This time it won't come down to the last play.

The players like to be at home when its is possible.

Maybe it will...Alstott had elbow implants put in...

Re: Schedule!!!

Yes, the games that are on NFL Network will also be shown on regular broadcast networks in the home market. What station that is I am not sure...

Re: Schedule!!!
 

[QUOTE=Buster]Maybe it will...Alstott had elbow implants put in...[/QUOTE]

Good lord, how long has Alstott been playing now? I mean, didn't Doug Williams hand off to him at some point?

Re: Schedule!!!
 

[quote=Buster]Maybe it will...Alstott had elbow implants put in...[/quote]

Along with the hip and spine. Alstott is like the six million dollar man.

Love it, I will be at BOTH!!!!

Re: Schedule!!!
 

WOW, November is just absolutely BRUTAL! Then finish the schedule with 9 NFC games - the fate of this team will rely on Nov-Dec run, where the king of DECEMBER (Mr. Gibbs) rules the world!!!!

This is what happens to players who use their heads as spears to get the extra yard or big hit. Don't let your pop warner play like alstot.

Talk about favorable down the stretch. Important 3-game homestand, the first gome of which is likely to decide HFA, two featherweights on the road, and then home to wrap up the year, in what I (prematurly) believe will be a meaningless game for both teams.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

Here's Phili over the same 6 week stretch:

Nov 26 @Indianapolis 1:00pm
Dec 4 Carolina 8:30pm
[B]Dec 10 @Washington 1:00pm
Dec 17 @N.Y. Giants 1:00pm
Dec 25 @Dallas 5:00pm [/B]
Dec 31 Atlanta 1:00pm

That's the worst thing you can do to a team, is to give them three road divisional games in a row. Ah well, they got featherweights at the front to make up for it.

I was thinking the same thing. A lot of bruisers in November. Luckily December has a bunch of teams that I would consider the complete opposite of "smashmouth".

Re: Schedule!!!

Not Time Warner in Columbia for what thats worth...which is that I won't be able to watch the game without switching to Direct TV

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I see just two soft touches in this schedule: Houston & New Orleans.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I find it interesting that the NFL found it necessary to schedule all of our AFC teams before the bye. We are the only team in the NFC East that has that special schedule. 0-4 against AFC teams for the last three years just might have something to do with it, but this will be the turnaround for this team starting with the Vikings. Man, those bastards in New York are jealous as hell about our aquisition of two of the best players in free agency. OH well.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

You never really know how strong or weak a schedule is until you actually start playing the games, even then so much can change week to week. Teams get hot and teams get cold. Teams that were expected to be good can flop, and teams that were expected to be bad can surprise you.

One game at a time, that's all the Skins need to worry about.

Re: Schedule!!!
 

I love being in the East................but, (now) you automatically have a bunch of tough division games every year. No walk overs!

I'll bet the same thing was said twenty years ago.

When do we get Tampa at home? We keep having to go down there and play them at their place!
