Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

I don't know what to say about this game. I can't really see us winning unless something magical happens and the offense finds a way to get it's explosiveness back like last year. Could be another long day if not..

I think we're in trouble. Until we show we can stop anyone and get anything going on offense before the 3rd quarter (especially on 3rd down) I'm really worried about this one.

I could see Stafford going for 400+.

We are getting our 1st win this weekend folks

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

We win this game no doubt about it! This team knows how desperate this is and RG3 has a huge statement to be made.. I'm not predicting a score or stats I just say we get a W and then start a small winning streak.

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

Oh no, if Matty is having doubts, then I know the 'skins are in trouble! I just don't see the 'skins dropping to 0-3. As matter of fact, I see this game as the springboard to recovery - but I think it's going to be high scoring on both ends.

No way we go 0-3!! ....Right?? I think will win this weekend but it must be denial. Based on what we have seen nothing really indicates that we will win. We need the read option with RG3. If we can't then obviously that means he's not ready. If we are going to run our offense this way we are better off with Kirk. I realize it's only 2 games but at this rate I wonder how long it would take for Shanny to make a decision. I love Grif but if he's not ready how can we be effective?

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

They're not going to bench RG3, why people think Shanahan's going to bench him is beyond me. Yeah, RG3 is sucking right now but I think the only way RG3 hits the bench is if he's obviously physically hurting.

Otherwise, strap on your safety belts, we're going on a huuuuuge learning curve.

Anyway, in regards to this Sunday's game... I dunno man. The defense blows the offense blows. I just hope I'm wrong about this.

Wishful thinking here ..... Griffin runs for 100 yds , throws 3 tds and Reed also throwing a TD ..... we beat the cowardly Lions 37 - 33 .

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

With a change in attitude, we will see a team so different that we will wonder who was on the field in Green Bay.

If you want to talk about benching somebody, you should start with London Fletcher. Have you heard his name called in the past two games? He had 2 tackles (1 solo) this past game with a RB that have over 100 yards rushing. He can't cover in space, and now he can't even stop a RB from running.


Back to back RBs have posted 100 yard rushing games against us, one coming from a team that hadn't posted a 100 yard rusher in over 45 games.

I'll never make a prediction against the Skins.

Skins:
Lions:

I'm afraid we're in for a long season, but on a positive note at least we'll be able to clean house with the coaching staff and get some high $$$ players gone that aren't producing.

Hall - $ 9M, Carriker - $ 6M, Morgan is OK, but not at $ 10M/yr., Josh Wilson - $ 5.3M, Moss - $ 6M.
and I'd seriously consider trade offers for Trent Williams ($11M) who I'm tired of seeing either reaching out for a missed blitzer or getting pushed into RG3's face.
Orakpo - $5M+ can be traded as well, for every QB pressure or sack he has, there's 3-4 plays where he's flying too far upfield and backs are cutting under him for big gains. He'd be much better is a traditional 4-3 where he can just get after the QB with his hand in the dirt.

Re: Washington Redskins vs Detroit Lions Pregame Thread
 

^ Hall isn't making that much, remember they let him go and brought him back.

Rak is on his last year.

Can't trade Trent, he's one of the better LTs in the game. Crazy talk.
