Skins Wins - predictions go here

[CRedskinsRule]

I have to ask, who thinks we are going to win 5 or less???? Gruden has shown he's a middle of the pack coach, and we have upper middle defensive talent. I can't imagine this team actually losing 11 or more games.

It's possible cause we are unstable at QB and o-line. Imagine when Penn goes down cause he ain't lasting 16 games. There is no margin for error on the o-line. One or two injuries and it can be catastrophic for an average offense and a below average Keenum.

I have to go with 6-10. I think the team will start slow and then steadily improve.

Penn is not a starting lineman on this team. He's depth.

With a season of injuries from hell last year, Gruden still pulled out 7 wins. Maybe it's possible we get 5 or less wins, but to predict that you basically have to believe that our defense is going to give up the ghost right away and that we will lose half our line in the first 8 games.

I agree with SF69.
1st and 2nd year players will be inconsistent.
Penn has finished the last 2 seasons on the IR. He's going to make it 3 years in a row. Flowers is a project at this point.

Defense will be good, probably top 10 but they aren't elite.

Special teams will be the worst in the NFL.
They get nothing in returns and coverage teams look like they will put the defense in bad spots with long returns.

This is probably a 7 win team.
9 wins if the ball bounces their way, 5 wins if things go like they have the last 2 seasons.

I'm going with 7-9 at BEST. The offense is still going to be a hot mess, and I'm certainly not sold on the linebacker nor backs on our defense. Our DL should be something else to watch though. If we win, it's going to come on their backs.


I won't be surprised if we end up with 5-6 wins though, and most likely will if we have any significant injuries.

Jay has had a decent QB too. Not so much anymore.
