Redskins v Panthers pre-game thread

MTK · 08-11-2005, 10:35 AM

It's that time again, time for our first pre-game thread of the season!

Discuss the game here, make predictions, what are you looking for from the Skins this week, etc.

So enough with TO, enough with extremeskins, let's get back to talking some football!

Jamaican'Skin · 08-11-2005, 10:40 AM

We're gonna win 14- 10

Campbell and Ramsey are gonna throw for touchdowns

Combs is gonna have a pretty good game, as will Royal

BigSKINBauer · 08-11-2005, 10:41 AM

this is a monumental moment, the Begginnning of a superbowl season, and in feburary we will make a game thread that will be playing in Detroit

BossHog · 08-11-2005, 11:06 AM

Uh. Maybe Rod Gardner proving himself he can catch better than .500.

REDSKINS TANK · 08-11-2005, 11:11 AM

I think that our starters will struggle against Carolina's starting defensive unit. I think it is important to get a good running game going to give Patrick some time to throw and make some completions (hopefully some down the field). I also want to see Antonio Brown return some kicks and punts. This guy can break it almost everytime he touches the ball. He will give our offense a shorter field for our offense to work with all year.

GO SKINS!!!!
10-6
PLAYOFFS!!!

On D I would like to see them pick up were we left off last season and see ST elevate his game to the next level. On the O side I'll be looking for good QB protection, the passing game to take some deep shots and for some zone blocking for Portis. I would also like to see our short yardage game to improve.I would also like to see our special teams to help with field position. I have othe wishes but this would be a good start.

That Guy · 08-11-2005, 11:33 AM

iffy on o line and passing this week... they're still gelling. hopefully the D is good, we're down some dbs though... I'll really just be looking at brown and wilds to show up.

Davnpurt · 08-11-2005, 11:35 AM

This will be an excellent litmus test for our O-line. Carolina has one of the best defensive fronts in the NFL; maybe the best. It is only the preseason but establishing ourselves up front will go on Saturday, I believe, a long way into establishing our identity in the upcoming season.

Let's also see a "3 and 5" where J. Delholme fires a 6 yard out to Gardner who then promptly drops it. A classic "buyer be ware". (maybe also while getting straight hammered by ST)

It's the preseason, so I don't care about the score. Frankly, anything that happens in the second half will just be filler.

I would like to see Gardner drop one, for old times' sake.

BTW, T.O. is now a mod at Extremeskins. Thought you'd want to know.

TheMalcolmConnection · 08-11-2005, 11:40 AM

I don't see Carolina having much of an offense against our D. Even when our 2nd and 3rd stringers come in, we all know how Williams operates, so I don't see Carolina getting more than 7 (if that). I DO think that our passing game may not be where we want it to be, however I think that Portis will run all over them and that Cooley will be significant. Our special teams will be the difference in the game. I REALLY do feel Brown breaking one.

I also want to know if Brown will be playing with 2nd or 3rd string because I think he'll go ass-crazy if he has someone like Ramsey or Campbell throwing to him.

x44x · 08-11-2005, 11:42 AM

35 -14 skins ramsey throws 3 of the touchdowns. brunell and campbell each throw one. clinton gets over a 60 yards in two drives.

TheMalcolmConnection · 08-11-2005, 11:50 AM

The longer that Marky stays in, I fear that our offense won't do so well... Not only that, Mark is as seasoned a vet as you can get, let the rookie get some playing time.

they'll get over 7, our dbs are hurt and they've got a decent passing game.

Apart from the obvious no injuries I want to see Nemo. Sounds like he could be a real sleeper

FRPLG · 08-11-2005, 12:16 PM

Couldn't care less about the score. I'd like to see some good ole clicking on offense. Maybe 8-10 carries for Portis with decent yardage and maybe 3 series with ramsey looking comfortable. I'd love to see some shots down the field. Even if they fail at least take them. On defense just don't get hurt. They'll be fine come the 11th.

The game won't be complete without 50/50 dropping an easy one too. I'll be able to laugh when(not if) he does.
