There real RB's are Jesse Chatman & Ronnie Brown. Lorenzo Booker has never played a down in the NFL...?

He's probably still better than Jesse Chatman. Booker will be good.

I think we're underestimating Miami's defense a little bit. Definitely a challenge for a young QB and Cam Camron may be able to turn their O around. I consider the Dolphins and Redskins in the same boat. Tons of talent that just hasn't gotten it together yet. Their biggest problem is their Oline, or lack there of.

The first game of the season is always very tough to call, as are the next two. Hard to tell which teams look better and who looks worse.

Total toss up at this point as to whether it will be a squeaker or a blowout. Really can't say. Too many questions to be answered, but to be honest I think most of them will be answered in a positive way(JC, defensive backfield, LB corp, Llyod and Randle El getting more receptions) If the pass rush is decent and we can get our stud wideouts the ball often, we will crush them. They won't be able to focus on Portis/Betts and their D will disintegrate. IF we could get back to 2005 shape defensively, it should be killer. Trent is good for sure, but he doesn't have that much talent to work with in my opinion to really hurt our D. I can't see Ron Brown doing that much damage against our LB corp either. Only way it is really close is if both teams get opening week jitters and it is a sloppy game.

I say the only thing Trent may lack in this game is timing with his WR's. I would much rather play him early in the year than latter as his timing becomes better. His age to me is not an issue this year but in terms of building a team it is an issue for them over the next few years.

I think it's going to be similar to the Skins and Bears game of 2005. Tight game, with the Skins coming out victorious. I think our defense (if healthy, unlike last year) will totally dominate the Dolphins offense. I think their defense could pose problems for our offense unless Campbell really has progressed like we all think (hope) he has.

Re: How do you think we size up against the FINS week 1, with Trent at QB

I would rephrase the question into two parts:

1] How are the Redskins going to come together and play as a total team?

and

2] How fast can T_Green learn the FINS players and offense?

We all hope that the SKINS will come together and win but not a single one of us has a clue as to what will take place on opening day. But that is the excitment of football.
