Our Schedule...Did you know?

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

I am going out on a limb and say we go 11-5 (5-1) in the division including a W over Minnesota. Carolina whipped up on them last year when they were playing well. Sidney Rice wont be 100%. Brett Favre wont have the same year he had last year and Percy Harvin might get a migraine during the game.

If we go 5-1 in division, I think 11-5 would almost be a disappointment. Our non-division opponents include: Detroit, St. Louis, Tampa, Houston w/o Cushing, and Chicago. If we went 3-2 against that group, it would be a major disappointment.

We have a very hard schedule, but it's almost entirely due to the NFC East being so strong this year. They are the teams that know our strengths and weaknesses the best, and I don't think it's a coincidence that we went winless against them this past year. I think even a 3-3 record (which we had accomplished in both 2007 and 2008) should be good enough to make some noise this year. 5-1 should win us the division, and comfortably.

If we can go 5-1 in the Division GT..then my 14-2 prediction won't be too far off.

Kinda funny,but in my 14-2 prediction? Our 2 losses are the Bears and Titans on the road...(Both winnable games)

The question imo is...simply?
Can we beat the Vikings,Packers and Colts in our house?
Most will say...we just ain't good enough. (and they could be right)
Having a franchise QB can literally change a franchise though.(let alone a HOF type coach)

If we can win even 2 of those 3...This team can beat anybody imo...

If we can,this team can beat anybody and win the SB.
It's that simple imo...

I'd be happy with 5-13. maybe one day we'll go 10-8 but for now we have to pace ourselves.

Thanks, I was scared that one was going to go unnoticed. Kind of like Marko Mitchell's amazing ability.

I agree with you, but you know its the Redskins, we always find a way.
