Official Release: Redskins Release Schedule

Recommended Posts

Wow goes to show what the NFL schedulers think of the so called "redskins-cowboys" rivalry . They chose the eagles to be the last NFCE team to play them in their old stadium and then we play the Rams when the Boys open in their new home in week 2 ....

That indeed is "1 way" to look at it. The other? Is as of late, the Skins RUIN special days in Cowboys history. So they'd probably rather not have the viewing public witness such a feat of "America's team" getting trounced! Like the 35-7 game with the playoffs on the line, the Brunell to Moss miracles on "Triplets honor night" or the Marion, Witten attempt at "1000 yrd seasons" the last head-to-head meeting in their old rat trap, all recently. Cowboys vs Indians is still a real rivalry, but the media LOVES the Cowboys. They love the G-men too. So REGARDLESS who wins that Jones dome spectacular.....the MEDIA still wins! Not true if Skins win that grand opening, IN PRIMETIME!

and the super bowl champs have the easiest schedule, go figure. oh well the skins never get a break. we have been a 500 ball club and yet we usually wind up with one of most difficult scedules every year.also heard that the giant are supposed to get braylon edwards from the browns. we need him and i am fed up with giants getting all the breaks and these players just falling into their hands.it seems that way at least. good by burress, oh well guess what. b edwards just so happens to be available.we get haynesworth and they get canty and the dt from seattle.i have to face the fact they are a far superior team as far as front office prowess goes we have no money and all these holes to fill. as good as haynesworth is was it really the best move to tie up all your money in one player and then fish for left overs to fill the remaining holes. this is not the way you put a superbowl contender together.i don't begrudge someone making mistakes, but i expect them to learn from them and snyder keeps doing the same thing over and over again and still doesn't get it.i fear that the good graces of the fans are wearing thin. i know mine are, we need to get a oline that can take over a game and get touchdowns in the goalline area and first downs to run out the clock. we need a wr to help moss and randle el isn't him.and the rookies would have to make a major step up to do it.possible but unlikely,b edwards is there to be had but the giants are probably going to get him.we need a de that can help carter, we need a couple of starter capable lb's as well as a new center another guard and a rt.a big young brusier of a back would be nice as well.and last but not least a qb to back up campbell and challange colt and campbell. collins is a 3mil mistake.theres not much left so trading is the only way to get it taken care of.question is do you want to go to the superbowl. then make the moves. i know that the picks are precious but he spent all that money and now have soo many holes and too little picks to fill them nows not the time to get skiddish.be smart but check out the possiblities and get your needs filled. the rt is a position that could wait one more year if needed.but the inside of the oline cannot. we need a quicker stronger bigger center and a guard capable of moving the meat.you people are well aware of these things so i am sorry for ranting.just fed up with the giants getting their needs met and ours always needing to be.

At Oakland and at San Diego at the end is crap

No how about 2 division night games in December, brutal. I'm dreading that both from a standing point of view as well as having to sit in the crowd. The December game against the Bear in 2007 when it was like 20 degree was the worst I've ever felt at a game though we did win. But still I dread those late December games:cuss:

Reason Super Bowl champs have an easy schedule is they play in a week division. We play in a division where everyone is 8-8 or better

Prime time games haven't been so bad for the skins, so long as they are on the road. But it's a different story at FedEx and i can't figure out why. Think we're something like 1-7 at FedEx on MNF since 1997 (or maybe it's worse?).

I dread prime time games at FedEx, we just can't seem to cut many breaks in those games.

Yep, now that Joe is no longer here, it's hard to have as much confidence in those late season games as we used to.

the difference between 2008 and the late season results from 07 and 05 are prime examples.

If we are not in a playoff spot then we will not get the prime time games late in the season!! It looks like they gave them to us just for that reason. If we are playing good then here you go but if we are out of it then they will put playoff teams in the spot. So basically we have one guaranteed prime time game!! Pathetic!!

The only primetime game that isn't guranteed is the Cowboys game on Sunday Night. They can't change the MNF games against the Eagles and Giants.

I'm just glad TB comes to OUR HOUSE. Granted, it shouldn't be as hard a win as in the past. TB is like the Cards USED to be, back when they were in our division. A PAIN in the *****!!! And the thing that ties them together??? Anyone, anyone. All I can say is, TG he retired!!! I used to dread getting ready to see him all over our QB's neck.

I'm really mad that all three home games against NFC East teams, the ones I want to see the most, are in prime time. I don't live in the area and it's impossible to make it to those games without taking the next morning off work. I won't be surprised if all three of those games are repeats of the fiasco that was the Steelers game on Monday night last season since a lot of people will want to avoid the rush-hour traffic on the beltway and the drunken crowds and just put their tickets on ebay for highest bidder.

1) I like the BYE week in the middle of the season.

2) I do not like the two trips to the west coast, all at the end of the season, wrapped around our always tough NFC East showdown games.

3) I do not like the Prime Time games (MNF and SNF); we have played so poorly in these nationally televised games. I prefer, plain, old, boring, vanilla 1:00 games.

4) The Detoit game scares me; I foresee a 'stinkeroo' on our part. Lions end their consecutive game losing streak, and all Skins fans commit harri-kari!

No more predictions for me anymore. The team has disappointed on so many levels the last 17 years, I'm just letting things play out.

:hysterical:

Im usually off a game or two but I did it again anyway. 10-6, 9-7

Patiently waiting for that Atlanta game coming off the bye tho............
