I think you guys win this one. 24-16

One of these teams will finally break the 'win 1 lose 1' streak and come out of Sunday on a two game winning streak. That has not happened for either team is a long time.

I can't say wither way, both teams are so damn BLEH to me, especially on offense. If we can contain Zeke I think we win but I honestly have no clue on the outcome.

True, but Jay Gruden's record versus Dallas is horrible, so I have to give your team the edge.

skinsfan69 10-16-2018 12:54 PM

Re: Dallas week Version 1
 
I give Dallas the slight edge because they can rush the passer and run the ball better than we do. Neither QB will top 200 yards. Dallas 20 Redskins 13.

I can't predict who will win, it's a pretty evenly matched game.

All I know is the hitting in the trenches will be incredible, and it will almost certainly be a closely contested one-score game.

The Skins are determined to stop the run better this year than last year - you can tell Allen especially is on a mission. I'm going to go with the Redskins here. I think they get up for this game because stopping the run has been the number one theme. I think they'll attack the offense similarly - on zone reads the OLBs will crash to the RB, and the safety or linebackers will take the QB. If Dallas wins this game, it will have to be Prescott proving he can win with his arm.

23-20 Skins

Then we'll have the let-down the following week. :doh:

Agree with S10...Dak puts the ball up for grabs, got to win the turnover battle.

I think QB play will determine the outcome...Smith has to play better.

13-21 Skins

Re: Dallas week Version 1
 
I think Smith started to connect with his receivers last week. It wasn't an all out explosion, but I think the offense will come into it's own the next few weeks, and if we get in front, then the defensive line is pretty good at collapsing the pocket. I think we are seeing the burgeoning of a winning streak, might as well start with Dallas

Skins win 28 - 20.

That's what I'm thinking too, Offense will get better as they go on.. It's still not a top 15 Offense due to lack of play makers but if we can just consistently score 24 a game we can be a threat.

That's asking a lot of our defense. There are times when every team must win a shoot out. But I get your points: Basically, you are saying the D needs to hang tough as the offense improves.

If we don't win this game, I'll just assume we will never beat them again. There is absolutely no reason to lose this game except for we're the Redskins. This is a code red game. Especially for Alex. He loses this one, and the criticism sky rockets. For Jay too.

I don't think it should be a given that we win this game, they are about the same as we are, I would argue they are better on Defense and they run the ball better so actually I'd be more surprised we win, we all know there will be half the stands full of Dallas fans as I found out last yr at this game. I think we win if we have zero To's and we can run the ball.

Coming off a big win against probable playoff team, rivlarly game, chance to get some separation, chance to start a overall streak, chance to win 3 straight at home, chance to say we are here all season, roughly equal to the other team.

This is a game that good teams win and expect to win.

We should absolutely come out fired up and ready to play.

Time for Gruden to prove he can lead this team. If we come out flat I'm going to go insane.

I'm not making a prediction tha we will win, but we should win this damn game, if that makes sense.

McGee could sub for Matty I on first down, goal line/short yard packages because he is stronger versus the run.

Keim hasn't seen McGee begin practicing yet. I wonder if this is a sign that McGee's getting closer to practicing, but also that they're more confident in Caleb Brantley now that they've had a good look at him for a bit.

Honestly forgot we even had him (Brantley). Looking forward to seeing if he's a rotational keeper.

I’m with you!! We lose Dallas 31 Skins 24 ... for the record until this team wins 2 games in a row I’m picking them to lose... IF we win this game I believe the skins could make a serious run at division ..

Redskins247 10-17-2018 09:57 AM

Re: Dallas week Version 1
 
I really think the outcome of this game lies in the first couple of offensive drives, if the Skins can get on top early like they have in their wins, they'll have a good chance of winning this one too. But if dallas gets on top early, and can just run zeke and dak scramble for first downs...no way they'll win this game.

This game is about attitude. The trenches. Here's why I'm eager to see how the line performs this time around, and why I think it can be different from previous seasons.

Watch starting at 0:46.

Re: Dallas week Version 1
 
Looking at points per game Dallas defense is ranked #2 allowing only 17.2, we are 8th as we are allowing 20.8

Of course we had the Saints game as an outlier of 43.

This is going to be a defensive game, and I think key turnovers (in either team's redzone) will be the difference. Dallas has 6 takeaways in 6 games, we have 9 in 5 games.

Also Special teams will be highlighted. I don't really know if either team has an edge here, but it could come down to a great or terrible special teams play.

Bottomline, I trust this defense against a fairly one dimensional Dallas attack. With no Witten their TE's aren't nearly as much a factor.

I think Kerrigan gets a big play, possibly a pick six or fumble recovery.

My worry is our OL vs their DL, AS will need his best checkdown eyes as he isn't going to have the time to throw that long developing plays.

Was thinking the samething this morning...Thompson really needs to play this weekend, and we need to look for him early and often.

Jay needs to open the play book up to slow down the rush. Ball is gonna have to be out quick.

I think last week showed Jay's scheme is getting guys open (and Alex missed some wide open receivers in the previous weeks).

This week is going to be critical as far as Gruden's abilities to consistently get his team fired up and ready.

Cooley sat with AP in his 3rd podcast episode, and they said Jay has been hard on the team after the Saints loss, Peterson said he liked that Jay was "100% on them", about the mistakes they made.

I hope the Saints loss can be used as a turning point for this locker room, a wake up call for Jay to keep his job, and for this team to play at the level they can and should play every week.

Stop the run, no coverage fluke, get on the board early, beat Dallas:

We're an average team. We're going to win some, and lose some.

I'm going out on a massive limb here, and say we have a 50/50 shot at winning.
