Redskins vs. Dolphins predictions

[Hog1]

I'm not sure where you live Hypo, but I have yet to hear of a single "Dolphin biased" radio show anywhere in S. Florida who has any confidence in the Fins ability to score points with so many new, uncertain, and suspect components in the mix.
Pipe dream..............

I live in Maryland. In the heart of SKIN country. I know the skins well enough to say that Miami will win. But lets wait until Sunday.

Redskins 20
Dolphins 13


My fins have some big question marks along that offensive line. I think the Foreskins are playing us at the right time and at the right place (away from the Miami heat). I figure the Redskins defense will get a nice touchdown pass going their way from Frerotte ... Culpepper ... Harrington ... Green (I can't keep up with the revolving door of quarterbacks in Miami).

Campbell will have some real problems with the Miami front 7, but if the hogs give him the time, he'll hit some passes downfield to Moss.

My dad is excited about this one because it is the only game he'll get to watch at home. The rest of them he'll have to come to my house to see it on the NFL Ticket.

Good luck ... but not too much

Go Fins!!

You have to love a Dolphins fan that comes on a Redskins site and predicts a Redskins victory.

FINS - 0

Carter - 1 Sack

what was the time on the clock? what quarter? lol

Dolphins 13
Redskins 7

Lets face it the Redskins don't have much of an offense this year. I think our defense will be close to what we thought it was though, but not enough to stop the Phins despite the fact they don't have a great offense.

Our defense will kill there offense!

How much of our offense do you think you've really seen to this point?

Don't forget CS & CP will be ready for the opener.

Why is that??

[Cowell]

Why is that? We don't. We have no receivers with exception of Cooley and Moss. You know the Phins are going to have a safety keeping an eye on Moss all day and I wouldn't be suprised to see them bring a 3rd corner out in 2 TE sets. I'm giving us a chance. I think our defense will look great. I expect us to be all over the Dolphins pass routes, but I have a feeling the Dolphins will be all over ours and if it comes down to a turnover, which it probably will the Dolphins are going to win.

If they did this, we should be able to rush for 300 yards.

[skinsfanthru&thru]

Skins 20
Miami 10

*Campbell throws for a little over 200 yards and one td & one int
*Betts and Portis combine for around 125 yards on the ground and one td
*Defense records 2-4 sacks most of which coming from the lbs and cbs and they are also gonna force 1 int and 1-2 fumbles.

[GusFrerotte]

Skins 31 Dolphins 10. This will be the easiest game on the schedule after the deuce with the Gmen. In preseason, our first string O was nice and fluid, and the Dolphins D is not top 10 in my opinion. Our first D is better than the Dolphins D and will shut down the struggling Miami O. If this game is close like most of the above posters predict it is going to be a mediocre season. Skins should win by at least 14 points if they are that improved over last season. Dolphins are weak.

Are you friggin' kidding??? Your D is better than Miami's??? Dude, put down the chronic and get real... Say your Offense is better, your Special teams is better, or anything else... But please tell me you don't believe that...

On what planet does anyone ring up the Dolphins defense for 31 points???

I keep reading these "defensive battle" posts and it's laughable... The Redskins D was in the bottom half of the league last season with no reason to suspect it will be a lot better... Our front 7 is arguably one of, if not THE, best in the league...

Here's to a good game (a Dolphins Victory) and no injuries on either side...

Since you don't actively follow the Redskins, I'll let this slide. Our defense was number three in 2004 and somewhere in the top ten the next year (I forget where we ranked). In 2006 we had a NUMBER of defensive starters go down with injury. Shawn Springs was arguably the best coverage player the Skins have on defense. He's back fully healthy, with a better safety duo than the Skins have had since that 2004 season as well as better LB play including Fletcher and McIntosh.

If you look a player or two down on the list of "tackle leaders" you'll see that Fletcher is on there too.

Again, why won't this be a defensive battle?
