Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
Looking at the schedule I dont see any teams that can match up with our Offense. Health, and depth will be a determining factor.
9/11 vs. Vikings--Their D IS talented and should provide competition. It will be a crucial game to get out ahead with a win in week 1. Espn better not cut away from the game, I dont like double headers hogging the Skins' spotlight. 9/17 @ Cowboys- First Divsional Test on a shortened week and it is happens to be on their turf. Gonna be alot of hype to this game. We did them dirty and now they have the dirtiest WR. We better run them ragged. They have an easy schedule, but, they will finish 3rd in Division. Week 3 is Dallas' bye week 9/24 @ Texans- Not much to say, blow out. 10/1 vs. Jaguars- People sleep on Jax but the AFC is not the skins strong point 10/8 @ Giants- Coming off their bye week hopefully they will be rusty. Its good to get the away games out of the way but this will be tough. 10/15 vs. Titans -Young team that will suprise a few teams this year but not us. 10/22 @ Colts -Coming off their bye week. I think Greg Williams will exhaust them in shutting them down yet, Peyton is peyton. I still like their Running options w/ mungro, rhoades, and rookie addai. Probably the diferrence maker in the division as dall vs ny next day. BYE 11/5 vs. Cowboys- Easy portion of the schedule is done. Hopefully they will be not up to it and TO will be hating Dallas at this point. 11/12 @ Eagles - Defense is still intact., and would love to stick it to us. 11/19 @ Buccaneers -They will be ready for revenge 11/26 vs. Panthers -A dangerous game, glad to be home 12/3 vs. Falcons -A dangerous game, does Atl play well outdoors?? 12/10 vs. Eagles - Back home with division locked up 12/17 @ Saints -Smashed them, 12/24 @ Rams -Smashed them 12/30 vs. Giants -Home game, momentum. Take the week off and head into the playoffs. Skins 12-4 Giants 11-5 Cowboys 10-6 Philly -They stopped counting. |

We shall see. I hope you're right. But these games are not won on paper.

Re: Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
After carefully examining our schedule I have determined that we will finish the season 16-0.

Re: Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
I think we'll cause hell on secondaries, but Im worried about our secondary and some of the WRs we play.

If not, here's mine: 13-3 with losses @ Dallas, @ Phili, and @ TB on paper. The toughest home game will be Jacksonville, because they play so well on the road. Don't sleep on Houston either. Watch them maul Phili in week one. That should wake the rest of the league. I predict a win vs. them, but Houston probably had the best offseason of any team. Indy has lost at home in the past (with a stronger team than they have now) to teams far worse then our Skins. They can be had. CAR and ATL are good teams but we should win at home. Vick is a weak cold weather QB. He doesn't stand and take the hit and deliver the ball like he does at home. That's a late Nov. game, and won't be much of a challenge. Everyother game is a potential trap, but overall should be wins.

Re: Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
this is one mean schedule, we've got the nfc & afc south, not to mention our division may be the toughest in the nfl. The only really weak teams on our schedule are Minn. & Tenn. Both of them have major losses to their offense, and don't have dominant d's either. Other than that I can honestly see 75% of the others being decided by less than 7, the others by less than 14.
Don't sleep on Houston either. Carr may be due for a great year, they've made some changes & he's got Moulds to go w/Andre Johnson, whose definitely a beast. They may not be playoff bound but they'll beat some playoff teams. NO & St.L are 2 others that I think could surprise a lot of people. In short, this schedule & the nfl in general is just wide open. It seems now every year there are 5-6 teams that are a handful of plays away from making the playoffs. I'd be thrilled w/12-4 as MightyJoeG predicts, but I'm not as confident. |

Re: Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
I thought they did win in January unlike the Giants.

Re: Can any Secondary slow the skins down? NO.
Why do you say there's a soap opera in DC?
