The official Redskins Warpath prediction thread©: Skins vs. Jets

[MTK]

Often imitated, never duplicated, it's the Redskins Warpath prediction thread©.

Here's my take:
It's funny how the schedule can work out sometimes. One week it's the best team in the league, the next it's one of the worst. No apologies necessary, you can only play the teams on the schedule and this is a big game for the Skins. I don't care that the Jets are only 1-7, they are still dangerous. The Redskins need to refocus after getting bounced out of New England and start to get this offense back on track.

The Jets' defense currently ranks 29th overall in the league (26th against the pass, 27th against the run). No need to get fancy in this one, I would expect Saunders to try to get this running game on track and give the Jets a heavy dose of Portis and Betts. I think we'll see Betts worked into the mix more this week to try to spark the pathetic ground game. Campbell needs to be efficient and the WRs need to step up, make some big plays, and catch the damn ball.

I think the Skins 'D' is going to have a serious chip on their shoulders this week after getting shellacked last week. Clemens is going to have a long day ahead of him and I predict 2 INTs.

Overall I don't think it will be pretty, but this is a chance for the Skins to get some things going and gain some confidence back after last week's disaster.

Redskins 20
Jets 10
