skinfan2k Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Looking at their schedule, they play all the big boys of the afc as well as the cowboys and redskins. I made a bet with my friend ($100) and i took the under of 15-1. What do you think? Am i an idiot for taking this bet? I am betting that teams like Indy, Pitt, Dallas and Bmore or even Cincy and the Redskins give them a run for the money for the losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't beaten any powerhouses, but Brady scares me no matter who he's throwing to. Here's to you being right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiawatha Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 If it were 14-2 it would be over, easy. But 15-1? I'll take a push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 im counting on them to get homefield early and lose maybe the last game of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEavyJumbo85 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 14-2...in that division, they won't be playing meaningful games week 15-17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncherry Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I think you should be okay. They haven't beaten anybody yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSHRedskins3ATLBraves3 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 No way that they go over 15-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teller Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Your safe. 14-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 They'll clinch and then rest starters late and lose a game or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Honestly, I don't see them losing unless they clinch homefield and BB pulls the starters. Who is going to beat them? ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasCowboyFan156 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 They'll clinch and then rest starters late and lose a game or two. Belichick seems like the kind of guy that would keep the starters in and try and go for the undefeated season. If the teams you mentioned above can't knock them off I doubt they rest the starters and give up a loss. I just have thus ugly nasty feeling that this Patriots team is gonna join the likes of the '72 Dolphins. Call me crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slogriff Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I say that's a good bet. Too many things can go wrong between now and the end of the season. Injuries, turnover bug, overconfidence/complacency happen to even the best of teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, us. The Washington Redskins have never lost to the New England Patriots Hell Norv beat Bill Parcells' 1996 Superbowl team in Foxboro 26-21, and Spurrier somehow beat Billicheat's 2003 Superbowl team at FedEx, that went on to win 15 games in a row Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soup Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 moss is injury prone and they haven't faced strong defenses but they are still a good team I say they'll go 11-5 only because its difficult to keep a team healthy. The thing is brady eats zone coverages for breakfast and the skins do a ton of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsHokieFan Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I didn't know that. Nevermind looks like I am wrong From the Pats website http://www.patriots.com/games/index.cfm?ac=gamereportdetail&pid=20641&pcid=47 Although the Patriots have seen preseason success against the Redskins, they have not defeated Washington in the regular season since 1972 and have suffered six straight regular-season losses to the Redskins. Apparently we have only played them 7 times and are 6-1, but haven't lost to them since Nixon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmishGangsta Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I was at the last Skins Pats game, we were supposed to lose that one -- ended up being the last game the pats would lose that year, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
