Redskins / Eagles Prediction Thread: A New Beginning

Skins - 17
Eagles - 24

McCoy over 150 all purpose yards. 2 tds.

We move the ball pretty well but the defense can't stop their offense.

Same story, different week.

Fecals 34
Skins 17

I am so down right now I have to admit. I know they are 3-6 but the matchups look horrifying to me. They are so fast at the skill positions. I would take some solace in their offensive line and rookie QB for this game but I actually th ink our pass rush is even worse than their o-line and Foles didn't look incompetent against Dallas and that is coming in cold for the first time against Dallas at home. He will be better this week and our history with rookie QB's is atrocious. I know. Debbie Downer.

For those predicting a loss, don't feel bad. Really, don't feel bad. I'm not sure what this team has shown over the last 3 weeks, the last 3 seasons, hell the last 20 years that would make you have one iota of confidence that we'll win this game or any game.

I predict all the games every week and write down the final scores. I can't tell you the last time in a season that I picked us to win more than I picked us to lose. I think the Saints and then Rams game, I predicted wins this year, then I've picked against us every week. I took Philly this week.

I don't believe the Eagles have allowed a 100 yard rusher all season long.

Skins 31 -- Eagles 27

One thing that I don't think I have seen said is Vick being out helps us Offensively as he is not practicing and can't duplicate the speed and looks our offense gives - Just a thought?

Skins 27
Eagles 21

I am predicating a WIN!!! Take that to the bank! :D

I have this fear that with the "win now" attitude, Griffin will running - probably very effectively. And with the "nothing to lose" attitude in Philly, there will be a cheap shot.

Eagles 27
Griffins 21

Psychologically, the Eagles are not going to get healthy on the Skins with a win -- because it's already too late for Philly to get 'healthy.' I suspect lot of Eagles figure Reid's tenure is over, and consequently some may be going through the motions to make sure they are healthy enough to figure into the next Eagles coach's rebuilding plans. Shanahan seems more entrenched here -- so Skins players need to show effort to keep impressing their current coach.

Both teams seem penalty-prone. I suspect the Skins might show more improvement this week than the Eagles, especially since they are playing at home.

Prediction: Skins win 23-21

I like this write-up and score prediction.

I'll be DVRing the game though to avoid the need of a drink afterwards :)

:ols: yes, and for us I hope it doesn't turn 'Ugly.'

We are going to the playoffs this season.

The only thing I'm predicting is both teams need a win badly. Hoping the Skins can pull it off. But if they lose it wouldn't surprise me.
