petedaddy Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I have officially psyched myself out for an epic Redskins paloff run How can someone set themselves up for even more disappointment after the New Orleans meltdown you may ask, well if there is anything the Redskins have been exceptional at during the 25 years of misery, it is going on epic end of season paloff runs For anyone who doesn't know, here's how the season wraps up... vs Giants at Cowboys at Chargers vs Cardinals vs Broncos at Giants Sounds like 10-6 to me!! We have a great day of football tomorrow where we have a great opportunity to gain ground on two of the teams ahead of us with a Vikings win and Chargers win These are the teams in front of us: Through End of Week 11 Wildcard 1 - Panthers 7-3 Wildcard 2 - Falcons 6-4 Lions - 6-4 Seahawks - 6-4 Packers - 5-5 Cowboys - 5-5 Here's how I see it playing out Prediction for Win 1 - the Giants just had their Super Bowl win with their victory over the Chiefs...the players still know they aren't going anywhere this year...the game will be relatively tight early, but the Skins will pull away for a comfortable victory Prediction for Win 2 - after the Chargers beat the Cowboys tomorrow, they will officially be in panic mode...Jerry Jones will threaten to sue the league if they don't allow the Cowboys to replay all of their games with Zeke...a week of chaos ensues and we slip into Dallas and eke out a win Prediction for Win 3 - starting to ride a little high with two straight wins, we had to LA to play the Chargers where it will be a better homefield advantage for us than FedEx...the Chargers will be feeling a little too good about themselves and we'll take another win with a Kirk Cousins 4th quarter drive Prediction for Win 4 - feeling really good about ourselves we handle our business against the Cardinals and whatever washed up corpse they have playing QB that week Prediction for Win 5 - the Broncos, who are used to making real playoff runs, are too disinterested to muster up any real challenge...Paxton Lynch gets it to within one score late but we pick up a first down throwing the ball and run out the clock Prediction for Win 6 - a Redskins team needing a win for a playoff spot faces a Giants team with nothing to play for in the last game of the regular season (sound familiar) this time Captain Kirk exorcises his demons from last season and we win comfortably So...let's call it right now Who's going for Six in a Row and who's going for We Blow???? Also Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in Redskins Nation!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zCommander Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Alas I won't get my hopes up. I will just enjoy the game regardless of the results at the moment. Our playoff hopes were dashed in the KC game with all the injuries. The Saints game was crucial. That game showed us how much we are still a pretender and not a true contender. I rather wait when we have a full functional team so we can go deep into the playoffs. So anything less than that is just false hope. Happy Thanksgiving to you and to all ES members.

Veryoldschool Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Up to now the Skins have been very competitive win or lose but I am not optimistic because if they will continue to be competitive since I have no idea who is able to dress and who on the roster is halfway healthy.

TradeTheBeal! Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 RG3 pulled it off so Captain Franchise ought to be able to knock it out easy with his epic clutchness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I'd love to share in the enthusiasm but I don't like any parts of the PS guy taking over third downs. Not a big fan of playing with a third center either. Plus all the injuries on the defensive side of the ball, requiring guys like D Hall to play a prominent role. It just feels like things aren't meant to be. It's all Kirk, Jay and the coaching staff right now. If for whatever reason they muster even 5 of 6 wins to end the season, they deserve keys to the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you love to dog Kirk but he did win 4 in a row to clinch the NFC East at the end of 2015 AND he played a role with everything at the end of 2012 finishing the Ravens game and starting the Browns game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hdf561 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 No way we win 6 in a row, in fact we lose tonight, then we can abandon the season and begin looking toward next year to figure out how we will put a functional team on the field. Ill still I’ll watch every painful moment though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDSKYNYRD Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I'm sorry but it's been OR for a very long time. It's win or lose, nothing else matters. This isn't horse shoes or hand grenades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok. rememner when DJAX stupidly fumbled on a punt return, which gave the cowboys an easy field for a touchdown? Who was it that came onto the field and threw a LONG TD to DJAX that tied the game? That’s right. Kirk. And then the defense gave the game away, AFTER Kirk brought us back into the game. Doesnt sound like “choking like a dog” to me ?

But you stated that he “choked like a dog” in that Monday night football game. When in fact he was the reason we tied the game at 16 on the drive after DeSean Jackson decided to fumble the football. If our defense wasn’t led by Jim Haslett, we would have gone to overtime. The defense was the one who actually choked, honestly. If you’re going to pick on the guy for bad games, at least pick games that he actually played awful in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the final game last year, or any of those games down the stretch last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebestian Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Let’s start with one in a row. I have a weird feeling about this game. I think truly if tvey they can win this one, they have a real good chance of going on a streak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
