Chicago v. Washington Predictions

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 12-04-2007, 12:13 AM

This team is running on fumes emotionally speaking, has had just 1 day of practice to prepare for Chicago, and our offensive line should be on the back of a milk carton. Chicago's defense isn't the same defense we saw last year and their offense is inconsistent, but given the overall state of our team I cannot see us winning this one. Redskins fall to the Bears 24-17 and drop to 5-8.

I also predict that at least several people will implicitly blow off the loss of Sean Taylor, the one day of practice, etc. and use the loss as ammo to use against Gibbs.

Redskins are a better football team than the Bears, so I'm saying 28-19 Redskins.

Should the game go the other way, I can't say I'd be shocked.

Really? How so?

We'll either lose "because of Gibbs" or win "in spite of Gibbs" Sure the defense might let Grossman throw all over the field, Campbell might throw an INT, the offensive line might get pushed back all day, but that doesn't matter. They are never to be held accountable for anything ever.

Seriously though (although I was serious about what I wrote above), if Campbell has no turnovers we win. His turnovers have been the biggest difference between 4-0 and 0-4 the past month. We're not getting blown out, just making costly mistakes. 17-6 Redskins.

No offense but you're getting very bitter lately.

No more bitter than I usually am. I just held my tongue for far too long while others around here did their thing. I've calmed down a bit in the past couple of days, though I will never understand how the players always seem to skate by with hardly any criticism their way. It makes for pretty weak discussions on gameday when so few want to discuss what the players did wrong until three or four days after the fact.

Plus what I said wasn't too far off SGG's last sentence in the first post of this thread.

Call it a hunch, but I think this is the game that Campbell atones for recent mistakes and makes a few huge plays in the passing game.

Skins 20
Bears 10

Portis played great last time against the bears and i think he will get 20+ carries, so I believe that we can and will win this game. 23-17 JC plays a solid game throwing for 1 TD and no INT'S! This is really our last shot at the playoffs.

JWsleep · 12-04-2007, 01:45 AM

28-7 skins. We get rolling early and open a can of whoop ass on the Bears as we release some of the frustrations of the last few weeks.

Paintrain · 12-04-2007, 03:26 AM

Unfortunately the combination of injuries and emotional hangover are too much to overcome, 24-13 Bears..

Jesse E. Timmons · 12-04-2007, 07:17 AM

we will win three quarters.

You got that right i live in Jersey, but grew up in the md/dc area. And real talk sometimes I am sorry I can get the game on national TV. Love my skins rode or do but they are killing me. We should have spanked the Bills instead of kick so many feild goals. Having said all of that we are going to kill the bears.

rip Sean Taylor - Meast

Sounds about right. Ill be damn If I wanna start a Gibbs bash here,but he's just not going to change his game plan.

If we do get the lead we will sit on it.We will move up and down the field I'm sure but when we get to the dreaded red zone it will be field goal mania.

Bears 24
Skins 16
