Are you KIDDING!? I cant WAIT for the 4th quarter! Considering all the halftime leads and 4th quarter meltdowns the Skins have had (20 points by the Eagles last week in the fourth, the loss to the Giants etc...)

Not to mention that the Cowboys offense is a SCORING MACHINE after halftime. They have scored well over half of thier point totals in every game in the 3rd and 4th quarter.

Defense too. Last week at the Giants the defense held the Giants to 3 points while the offense put up a 14 spot. It was 17-17 at the half and the fianl was 31-20. Dallas is a much better team in the second half.

This one is a tough one to swallow for me:

My heart says Skins 24 Cowpukes 23

My head is saying Cowpukes 35 Skins 14

Who knows, its a rivalry game and we have played well in Dallas over the past couple years. All I know is that I will be watching and screaming and fighting my guts out.

Alright, if i have too.

Playing w/out Jansen, Thomas, Moss, Lloyd, Thrash, Taylor, Rogers, Washington (maybe), the skins will use the much feared tandem of Farris and Caldwell to score early and often. The defense playing w/out half of their secondary and an ailing Smoot will hold one of the NFL's top O's under 21 pts. Final score: Skins 24 Boys 20

You asked for it...there it is.



But seriously, the skins absolutely cannot come into this game just running the ball. We got to have good mix to open up the D a little bit. I don't think we can run on this D, when they put 8 in the box. Which they will . One name Randel El...time to step up.

What's the defense's approach? My take...blitzes. What do you have to lose? Make Romo make mistakes. Landry anyone? Mix it up but lets see some blitzes. The defense needs to put some pts on the board or put the o in some good spots.

Dallas has a better team than we do right now. That doesn't mean we can't win though.

EXACTLY.

The redskins are a good team. They could've been 8-1 in this season. The 2nd half collapse are what ruined them in every game. The cowboys are a good team with the win over teams that the redskins couldn't defeat. Also, the cowboys challenged the patriots in the early going of the game. The redskins were dominanted from kickoff to finish.

Records don't count in a rivalry game like this because anything can happen. I don't expect this game to be a blow out on any way, shape, or form from either side. I think it will be a good close game that will come down to the end like most of the Cowboy/Redskin games.

I don't go against the Redskins on any game.

Redskins 27
Cowboys 24

Redskins kicker Suisham that missed an extra point during the Eagles game will win by a game winning field goal at the end to redeem himself

I think this will be ugly. Dallas will key on the run and they will be successful stopping it. The offensive line will struggle opening holes in the running game and protecting the quarterback. Jason Campbell and his new receiver corps will also struggle mightily. Defensively we'll give up no less than five plays of more than 40 yards because we can't get pressure on Romo and we can't cover their receivers, tight end and backs out of the backfield at the same time.

Bad day for Skins fans.

Cowboys 44
Redskins 20 (after 10 garbage points in the 4th quarter)

So, for those of you who say, "I never go against the Redskins" -- did you honestly expect them to go 16-0 this season?

That's what you expect and hope for? An undefeated season? As if we're on par with the Patriots?

Well, on a macro level, I don't think very many people expect a 16-0 season. On a micro level, I would like to think that a lot of people hope to win that particular week.

It's the same ole, tired argument of Realist versus Optimistist versus Pessimist versus 724Skinsfan.

Redskins win 28-21...decidedly! Thanks to Campbell connecting on long passes to Randle El and Cooley for 3 scores early in the game. Romo tries to mount rally after rally but penalties and turnovers plague the Cowboys until the 4th quarter when they score twice in the final 4:37 minutes.

I hate to say it or see it, but the Skins are going to get creamed. I hope I am dead wrong, but the Skins are completely out manned. To many wounded warriors!

Way to be loyal to your team, guys...picking DALLAS...mail your fan cards back to Gibbs and go buy a blue jersey. If you pick the team's worst enemy, that's like calling Santa Claus gay and expecting presents under your tree...or telling a woman she actually DOES look fat in those jeans. You're just not a diehard Skins fan. It's like having the choice between the woman of your dreams and Rosie O'Donnell...and taking ROSIE home.

Seriously...this is DALLAS...you can't pick them and be a real fan. Throw records, rosters and stats out the window for this game...it's DALLAS. Things don't go as expected in this matchup ALL the time. "Reality" should not cloud your loyalty THIS Sunday.

It's a prediction thread, and what you see before you are predictions. Some think Washington will win, some think Dallas will win. It has nothing to do with loyalty. Dallas is playing better, they are less injured and they are playing at home. That's probably why some are picking Dallas, me included. Still a diehard Skins fan here, but I have to be honest too. Dallas in a runaway.
