Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
Alex Smith, have seen lots of him. He’s a good QB but fizzles in playoff games plus he’s 33 years old. I’ve always liked Smith but he always disappoints me. I hope he proves me wrong.

Payne, Allen, and Ioaniddis stay healthy and good Preston Smith plays in all 16 games.

Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
Honestly, on paper, this looks like the best Redskins team we've had in a long time. That's what scares me about this season!

- The Philadelphia Eagles - Green Bay Packers - Minnesota Vikings - New Orleans Saints - Los Angeles Rams - Carolina Panthers - Atlanta Falcons - New York Giants - Seattle Seahawks It basically comes back to CRed's point. We've done a good job of improving. In June, it's hard for me to fault anything the front office has done, truthfully, given that Cousins was going to leave. But have we gotten better enough to beat this list of teams?

We face tough competition but if injuries break our way as Matty aptly points out, there's no reason why not us. The difference between being good and bad in the NFL really is a fine line.

The only team Id say place in the NFC playoffs right now is Minnesota...the roster is extremely talented and still improving. Philly, Rams and Carolina are legit contenders. Im putting the Skins easily with every other team Ive not mentioned as contenders for the playoffs. Its wide open |

Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
Will make the playoff if:
1: Doctson and Richardson are legit #1 and #2 WRs 2: Reed and Nicholson stay healthy 3: Gruden coaches with some BALLS this year 4: 2 RB only! Guice needs carries and CT is our 3rd down back. I don't want to see anyone else carry the ball 5: Kerrigan and Smith both need double digit sack years to help out the secondary Won't make the playoff if: 1: They start the season in Preseason mode again (Soft ass Jay Gruden) 2: The young talent is overrated or isn't available Bill Parcells once said that Availability is the greatest ability. I'm not very optimistic about the playoff because we need a lot of young guys to develop this year and stay healthy. |

Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
Will make the playoff if:
1) The team can stay healthy 2) The offensive line can pass protect for Alex Smith and open holes for our RB's. 3) The DB's and LB's develop and become a great back 8. Won't make the playoff if: 1) We have another season of a ton of injuries 2) We do not have an effective run game and cannot protect Alex Smith. 3) The secondary does not develop and we do not have an effective nickle slot CB. |

Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
The NFC is loaded, if we were in the AFC I'd say we win 11 games easy.

Re: Why Skins Will/Wont Make the Playoffs this coming Season.
Agree on most of the points made. I think Seattle is trending down but as long as Russell Wilson is playing they have a chance. Can't put them out of the picture because of him alone.
Plenty of reasons to be optimistic. We did beat some good teams and I loved how we played when fully healthy (the KC loss was a well played game, and the Oakland game was incredible). But we did lose twice to Philly and Dallas, and once to NYG even though they were hapless. We need to win in our own division to make the playoffs. We can get in by wildcard, but that will be impossible if we go 2-4 or 3-3. Dallas was a rough matchup for us last year with their stellar offensive line going up against our cupcake defensive line. This year that script could flip - Payne and Allen will make that a big boy pants game within the game. We beat Dallas twice instead of losing to them twice, and it flips the script for us. Manage to split with Philly, then we're REALLY talking. NFC East division games are where it's at.
