Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

I always think the season is at least a partial success if we can beat Dallas. The Redskins showed they can play an elite team well - for half a game. If Gruden can keep the gas on, THE ENTIRE GAME, the Redskins can possibly win this. But make no mistake, Dallas is a good team. if Gruden mismanages this game, if Manusky can’t run this defense well the Redskins will lose again.

I just really wonder if Gruden can change his style with his HC career slowly circling the toilet bowl. What say you?

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

0 hope we win. Defense disappointed me, even during the 1st half, they moved the ball on us we just managed to get off the field, and then just bad discipline, blown coverage, missed tackles etc...

Pass protec and pass offense definitely is a good surprise, but running game still is a huge issue and I don't expect the passing game to carry the team to many wins. ..

First time ever I'm so down entering a season, more so after this weekend.

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

I don't think Dallas is as good as they looked. But that is probably just my redskins glasses looking at them.

I think we are as good as we looked the first part of the Philly game, but Gruden always takes several weeks to work out the kinks. His comment on the 1st depth chart of the preseason reflects the fact that he doesn't really start working things out till the season starts. It's a shame really.

Add all that in, subtract Allen from the DLine, and you come up with an 0-2 start, and Skins fans calling louder for Bruce Allens head on a stick, with JG's right behind

I pick Dallas.

The thing that I'm going to hate most about this upcoming game is that there will probably be as many Cowboys fans in the stands as there are Redskins fans and they will cheer louder than we will. We no longer have a home field advantage.

Oh that's right, forgot that item in the "typical life of a Skins fan" package...

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

Unfortunately I completely agree with everything already said here.

Unless the Redskins really come out totally on Fire I don't see them wining the game against the Cowboys.

The Defense, which was susposed to be one of the Redskins strengths looked very beatable, especially in the nightmare of the second half of the Philly game.

My only hope is that the Redskins don't get completely embarrassed and blown out of the stadium

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

Redskins are selling tix for Sunday’s game vs Dallas for as much as $760/ticket for club level ($190 for cheapest nosebleed seat after fees). Unlike last year, it appears to be a near sellout. Going to be biggest Cowboys invasion in history of stadium that‘s seen its fair share.

As for the game itself?

If the skins start 0-2 this thing could take a BIG nosedive.

Bears and Giants are both winnable games but starting 0-2 almost guarantees no playoffs in todays league

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

I never thought this was a playoff team so I see no need to panic going 0-2. I hate losing to Filthy and Dallass but both of those teams are better than us on paper. They could be 2-2 after four games. The thing I really hate to see is what the stadium will look like this weekend.

Re: Predictions on Game 2: Dallas week!

It's really sad to see what has happened at Fed Ex. It's going to be 50% Cowboy fans. Snyder and Allen must be embarrassed when they see that shit.

Cowboys are flat out a better team and they should win the game.

Very true, but then this is a rivalry game and we have seen Redskins winning games when they shouldn't have.

Dallas win this one, 10-35.

You poor naive soul, actually believing that those two greedy business people care about who buys their overpriced tickets. See post #7 for ticket prices. It's a big win for the Redskins "off the field". Woo- Hoo!

Yeah, they don't give 2 fucks. Dallas money is still green.

Best part about this game is that it's on the local Fox broadcast so I can watch the loss sober, on my couch, and away from any Cowboys fans.

I have zero faith in Jay against good teams, Dallas wins this 27-20

I never take anything for granted. I seem to recall the '89 season. Cowboys were 1-15 that season. But that 1 win came at RFK against the heavily favored, first place Redskins. If memory serves, that loss for the Skins was the first loss of the season. Skins won SB that season too.

Never believe the hype in week 2. Sampling size from week 1 too small. They still have to play the game.
