Redskins vs. Seahawks predictions

[MTK]

No prediction again from me this week, but let's hear yours.

[BrudLee]

This is a talented Seahawks team in a tough environment. Here's why we should win:

1. We've won our last two away games, against playoff caliber opponents who were either fighting to get in or fighting for position.
2. We've won in bad weather (rain due in Seattle, but could it be worse than NY?)
3. The Seahawks are amazingly one dimensional on offense - Greg(g) Williams must be salivating.
4. Seattle is a throw-first team, and it will be run-first weather.

This team has gotten better results each week since the re-birth against Chicago. While past performance is no guarantee of future results (if that was the case, I'd be a millionaire and not some dumbass with a garage full of Star Trek commemorative plates), I think we have reason to be positive.

I feel good about this game. I think Clinton Portis can have a good day against the Seahawk defense. If the Redskins can run the ball effectively, they can keep Hasselbeck off the field and limit his opportunities. It's also important for the Redskins to score early to take the crowd out of the game. I think the Skins can get it done.

Seahawks get after the QB but I think Collins will only attempt 20 passes. Portis goes over 150 yards and Betts gets 100. Springs and Doughty get picks and LL knocks Engram out.

B&G 27, da-haux 13. Collins and ARE hook up, CP has 96 yds, and a score, and M. Sellers punches one in from the backfield.

Skins - 27
Hawks - 13

In the words of Philip Daniels, "I wouldn't want to play against us right now."

[Hog1]

Phillip is a wise man. That is exactly what I was going to say............and, we owe them!!!
Skins 28-17

my gut feeling about this game is 50/50.but as long as we continue to play with intensity and toughness like these past 4 weeks we will be ok.

my prediction........................................ .no comment i will let the game itself determine that on saturday

go skins....

[SmootSmack]

The key play of the game will be when Suisham nails a 55-yard field goal as time expires in the 1st half to give us a 10-0 lead. We open the second half with one of those 7 minute drives that culminate in a Reche Caldwell TD catch from...Clinton Portis. Seattle closes the gap with a TD and 2-point conversion late in the fourth, but their ensuing onsides kick attempt backfires as Anthony Mix scoops it up and takes it down to the 10 yard line. With no timeouts left the Seahawks are forced to watch as Collins takes a knee.

Final Score: 17-8 Redskins.

The Skins use the same formula for winning thay have used these past few weeks, Collins puts the team in position to win and the D doesnt blow it.

Sloppy defensive struggle w/a few turnovers leading to scores. Skins D bends but doesn't break giving up 4 fgs & creating 3 turnovers. Portis has a tough but effective day, about 25 for 80 & 2 tds.

Well so far this week no one has picked the other team and its about time.

Hawks will go into this game with a different game plan. TO RUN THE BALL! While we are ranked 4th against the rush this will prove to be difficult. But I have a feeling Holmgrem will view the run as a key to winning. As will we. Even though we are ranked 16th against the pass....are corner boys have been playing lights out lately.

We control the clock we win a close one....
