Your head will most likely kick your heart's ass when all is said and done, but isn't that par for the course?

One other thing (and this is not pointed at anyone in particular): Stop taking these prediction threads so seriously! Danny Sheridan is not going to ask you to be the guest oddsmaker next week and you won't be sitting next to Jimmy Johnson's stash of Aqua Net, so dont sweat what you say, or what everyone else says. Damnit.

It pains me to say this but

Dallas 38
Redskins 9

I predict that Gibbs will be overly conservative in the beginning, particularly in the red zone where we will settle for field goals, while Dallas gets TDs. Once the game really gets out of hand, Campbell won't have enough horses at WR to challenge the Dallas secondary, and that's when I see Ware perhaps forcing a Campbell fumble or two.

We run the no huddle all day and McKardell comes up big. Skins 31 Cowboys 30

Dallas - 38
Washington - 14

I never seen so many panzy Redskins fans who do not even give their team a chance. So you say your keeping it real good for you. I'm starting to dout how many skins fan are really on this site. Maybe the ones who leave 5 min before the game is over and yell sit down. Hey To all the Dallas fans who come to this site if our team has this much drive I would start your 2nd stringers and let Romo stand on the side lines and just smile as they 2nd's run up the score. Or hey just for a laugh tell your Dallas buddies to come read these post for a goof laugh at what I thought were Skin fans. Thats what they would do if it was a team we were playing and saw post like these. But hey they are keeping it real.

Dallas is 8-1. They're undefeated in the division. Their only loss is to the best team the NFL has seen in decades, maybe ever. They score a lot. We're going into their house. We don't score a lot, we're riddled with injuries, we're 1-2 in the division, and we have a tendency to give games away. I love my skins, but explain to me how I'm a pansy for picking Dallas to win??

Like Daseal says, does not having unrelenting optimism make me less of a fan??

seriously and then if you pick your team to win every game you are a homer drinking the kool-aid. you just cant please everyone.

I think we will beat Dallas in OT this time. I'm saying 21-24 Redskins. DO NOT count out Moss just yet I have a sneaky feeling he will be activated last minute and have his way with Newman and Williams, he is definately due for a big game. Springs and GW's scheme usually do well against T.O., even when he was with the eagles(I'm saying on average not all the time). Its going to be close just watch

Because on any given day in football any team can win a game. Just look at college football this year or the year that Dallas had only one win against us and we won the SB. I have never gone into a game or watched a game that I thought there was no chance of winning. It happens every day that a underdog wins and so there is always hope. I never seen so many SKins fans throwing in the towel to of all teams Dallas. We saw it again last night that a unranked team Arizona beat Oregon I beat Arizona always thought they had a chance to win that game. Is it a up hill battle? Yes, but there is always the chance for the win an until its over I'm not throwing in the towel. So if you give up before the game ever starts yes you are a panzy and you will lose every time.

College football and NFL football are 2 totally different levels. But NFL-wise, I mean, what are the chances of the Dolphins beating the Pats? Yeah they MIGHT. But they probably WONT. Come on down from that pedestal.

Nothings wrong with drinking the kool-aid but then there's losing touch with reality and the reality is, is that injuries are killing us and Dallas is on a roll. Of course we MIGHT win, and I hope to hell we do, but considering the way we're playing lately, the 2nd half letdowns, the injuries and the inconsistency; We probably won't.

What the pedestal that says we have a chance to win any given Sunday. OK college is different and in the NFL always the best team wins every game.

They're just predictions man. That's all. My prediction is Dallas 28-20. There are a few people who don't think we have a chance. Sure underdogs win, but this team hasn't done much to give us confidence with the NE showing and the games we've given away.

You say "until it's over I'm not throwing in the towel." Okay, so predicting we're going to lose is throwing in the towel? So we should all just say, "hey, I'm a skins fan, so regardless of what state my team is in, hell yeah we're beating Dallas." ??

Just because I think Dallas will pull out a win doesn't mean I think we don't have a chance. I just think Dallas has a better chance.

Here here for rationality.

Everyone needs to put down the friggin kool aid and have a friggin beer.

I also think they have a better chance to win but I would never pick them to win. If you pick them to win then you pick us to lose and yes you have thrown in the towel if you pick us to lose.
