Redskins ML

Not because of a "let down", as I don't buy into them in the NFL, but I think the 'Skins win this game.

As bad as they have been at times, they're due, and this is exactly the type of game they win after blowing leads and losing to suspect teams throughout the year.

Redskins in a squeaker.

Just kind of have a hunch, that's all.

You know how pesky that damn team can be......


.......sometimes.


They play defense like they did against Dallas and they have a chance. Of course I'm hoping for the secondary to get a little healthier this week.

I'll play the points for considerably more than the ML, don't worry.

Should have plenty of $$$ to burn after the Gators shut down 'Bama's miserable excuse for an offense.

Skins are just annoying enough to give them a sweat. Some rain would be nice.

Don't think the Skins have enough pass rush to get this done. Pats couldn't get to him and look what happened. I think the Vikings might be the only team in the NFC that can take them down.

Skins #1 Pass Defense in the NFL as far as YPG allowed.

VS. Giants, Rams, Lions, Bucs, Panthers, Chiefs and Iggles. Better check the body of work that built that resume. Outside of Manning and McNabb, the other 5 teams suck on offense. JMO

Ha ha.

No, I know.

But they've been consistently strong OVERALL over the past 5 seasons at year's end. Against all sorts of competition.

This is by no means a "shoe-in". Just saying I think they have more of a chance than anyone gives them credit for.

Trust me, it pains me to admit they are good at anything, let alone one of the best in the league at something.

Their defense is legit and has been for some time and is the only reason they even come close to cracking .500 each year. They hang in pretty much every game they play, regardless of opponent.

Probably lose by 21.

Probably like the under in this game better than anything. Seems like the Skins are one of those teams that is just good at grinding it out with the other team. They slow things down and try to frustrate the other team. Not sure if that is their intention or just the lack of internal organization, but it is what it is. lol

I'm more motivated by London Fletcher than anything in this game (not really, but sort of). Dude wants to win so badly.

Did you see him against the Eagles? Guy is a maniac and is playing better than ever.

Can't believe he's never made the Pro Bowl.

Can't believe I'm saying this.

LMAO.......Hate to hear you if the Skins had pulled it out on Sunday vs Eagles.
