Santana_Fan Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 the most that any Offense will score against us the ENTIRE season will be 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Got it now. I'd say that, on average, anything over 13 will be pushing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins4481 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 10-10.5 ppg 11 the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT Smash Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 -7. we shut out every opponent this season, and ST and marcus washington take turns gettin INT's/fumble recoveries for TD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPstretch Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 i think our improved secondary will make this defense a lot better. losing lavar doesnt hurt us that much since he hardly did anything anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Im gonna say between 14 and 21. Thats being a little non homerish, but im tired of all the douches pointing out that im a homer, i get it, i like my team almost as much a God himself, let me be a homer. My homer prediction that our defense intercepts every pass that every other QB throws next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Just enough where the other team thinks it's almost in the game. ( until the 2nd quarter that is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#98QBKiller Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 It's hard to say, I would be happy with an average of 14-17 per game. The Colts game could be a big factor in their average though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailRiggoRanger Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I'd say 17 points as a high average. Maybe as low as 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWinzit Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 No way our D isn't top 5 and should be top 3. That number 13 getting thrown around would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My homer prediction that our defense intercepts every pass that every other QB throws next year. Yeah, I hate those homers! How dare they say the Redskins are halfway decent on their own message board! Sean Taylor positively sucks at safety and will be sentenced to three life terms anyway, so he's a non-factor. Owens will torch us even when we run a half dollar formation with every DB covering him, so we will lose to the Cowboys 74-0 each time. All those great plays made by Marcus Washington were actually made by LaVar wearing Marcus' uniform, so now that LaVar's gone, we're hopeless at LB, too. As for the DL, every time they got a sack, it was because the QB slipped in the mud. I've watched the games, don't argue with me. We actually went 0-16 last season. It's just that some idiot scrambled it up and put the "1" first to make it 10-6. We didn't actually go to the playoffs. The Tampa Bay and Seattle games were just pre-season games being played really early. Therefore, I predict the defense will give up 123 points per game. j/k I'm tired of all those douches too.

e16bball Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Just for the sake of reference, the lowest number of points/game ever allowed is 10.3, so it's pretty safe to say we won't be below that. Additionally, only one team last year allowed less than 15 points/game (the Bears at 12.6, and they got to play GB twice, Minn twice, Detroit twice, us in the beginning of the season, etc.), so it doesn't seem to likely that we will be in that neighborhood either. I'm thinking we are a top 5-10 defense, and, based on last season, that means somewhere between 16 and 18 points. If we can do that, we should be in great shape.

TheSchwartz Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Well the best last year was Chicago @ 12.4 ppg and they had an easy schedule and an offense that just sucked up clock. 2nd place was Indy at 15.4 ppg. The best in 2004 was Pittsburgh at 15.7 ppg. The best in 2003 was New England @ 14.9. So I'm thinking this defense should be right around 15-16. Anyone predictiing something outside the 14-18 range isn't being very realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaozerker Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 well assuming our offence is as explosive as all the message board hype, then our time of possestion might go down due to scoring faster, leaving our defence on the field longer. they might wear out a little and give up some 4th quarter points, but we will be sitting high on 50+ points by then i say about 14-21 points per game. 2 turn overs per game.

SkinsFTW Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 16-20 If our offense really is as good as it could be and we run the score up on some teams we might give up closer to 20 a game. I still think we will primarily run and burn clock so I'd say that 16 per game is realistic. Anybody claiming 10 is just nuts. They aren't the 85 Bears defense just yet and our division is the toughest in the league with some powerful offenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrockster21 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Lots of homerism in this thread...:laugh: In 2004, the defense gave up 265 points. In 2005, in a much improved division and teams having a year to study Williams and our personnel, we gave up 293. Last year there were a lot of key injuries as well; Taylor, Griffin, Salave'a, Springs, Rogers, Clark and Arrington all missed games. Third year in the system, I will say that if the injuries are kept to a minimum, the defense will allow 275 points all season, or about 17.2ppg. If we again are hit by the injury bug, I think a season similar to last year will be seen, around 300 points given up, or 18.75ppg. **cue homerism** However this is all a moot point, because I honestly believe our offense will score 400+ points, or 25+ a game. Its not all that homeristic, because we scored 359 last season with only two legitimate receiving threats. This year we've got 4-5 legitimate weapons for Brunell, Portis finally running Gibbs-style, Saunders calling the plays and most importantly, the swagger and momentum of a winning team. They know they can do it because they did it last year. I don't think the 500 point plateau is out of reach, but 450-470 is much more likely, or 28-30ppg. Its going to be a FUN year!!

Ellis Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Yes this is right after the how many points our offense will score thread..So how many points will our defense give up on average? I'll say 15.. I think that's a fair number. Especially since we'll be facing some pretty good offenses this year. My hopes is that with our recently aquired offensive players, we can win games on offense. It's absolutely crucial we do this in order to make a SB run with the tough schedule we have. I know on paper that our schedule is a bit easier than last year. Still... we gotta get our offense to be more productive so that the defense doesn't have to carry the game so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
