RonArtest15 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 As I was watching the LSU/Bama game on Saturday, I bet I wasn't the only Skins fan sitting there wondering how our offense would do if they went up against either of those defenses. Honestly, I think we'd have a hard time scoring 10 points. For this question, it's not a matter of who would win the game...but rather how many points the offense would score (or wouldn't)?

Goingforburgundy Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I was thinking about this on saturday night and yesterday during the game. I think we could put 21 points on alabama. Alabama's Defense has some ridiculous talent on defense. 3 possible first rounders this year in Hightower Barron and Kirkpatrick. A believe they have an OLB in the 2-3 range. A few late rounders this year and a few studs in the next couple years on the Dline. Compares to the USC defense from a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxpunk2006 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I think we would win in blowout fashion. Bad pro teams are still leaps and bounds better than the best amateur teams. Everyone the roster was a star in college and they're better now than they were then. These sorts of discussions are silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 NFL teams are faster and more experienced. We would win 72-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mocountyskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 You are high if you thin the redskins would but up less then 72 or Bama or LSU even the 3rd string Redskins are superior in everywhere to more than 90% of the Bama and LSU Squads.

rebornempowered Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 The offense would be just fine and the defense would leave their offenses for dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btfoom Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 But, but, but, those college defenses looked really good against those decent college offenses, therefore, they would do great against the Skins. Don't look at the fact that only 3-5 guys from each team will make the NFL, much less have an impact there. They look good against other college kids, so they must be good against the Skins. Don't look at the fact that these are 18-22 year old players, who often make gigantic mistakes and in many cases, haven't completely grown into their bodies. They look good against other kids like themselves, so of course, they could handle MEN on the Skins. Lastly, don't look at the fact that one of the ACC's ELITE receivers just made it off the Skin's reserve squad (and that was only because of injuries), I'm sure those second and third DBs would easily cover guys like Fred Davis and Roy Helu. Now that I think about it, my buddy's 125 LB Pop Warner team is 8-0 this season, only giving up one TD the entire time. How many points could the Skins score against them???

Skins-Canes-Mounties Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Blowout. Our defense would demolish either of their offenses - as in laughably dominant performances. Our offense would work with a very short field on every possession. It would get ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Oh man, I didn't even think about what our D would do to those poor kids. KIDS...in most cases, this would be men vs. boys. Ridiculous to think that anything would happen other than a dominant pro win along with a boatload of injuries. The expansion Buccaneers from the 1970s would crush whatever college football team you believe is the best ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSHRedskins3ATLBraves3 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Is this a serious question? We would put up at least 30 against these kids, and our defense would eat them alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldskoolskins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 This awfull Skins offense would put up 50 pts in the first half, and the defense would score 20+. Only a small percentage of college players are even drafted and even fewer become starters. It would be a beatdown of biblical proportions.

sportjunkie07 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 i think we'd win, but contrary to common opinion, i dont think we'd put up great offensive numbers vs. either team. it wouldnt take much pressure for beck to be razzled into double clutching, missing/ignoring wide open receivers. our defense would light them up though and they wouldnt have much positive yardage.

The Tris Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 This is so stupid. These threads happen every couple of years when there is a really good college team. Like USC being able to beat the Lions. We would kill either team, and run all over their defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumplestilskin Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I think the greatest difference from the two levels is along the lines. Even the redkins banged up O-Line would look like the hogs against any d line college has to offer. Furthermore our d-line could by all rights get through blind folded. I couldn't come up with a score but we would score points on every drive and allow no field position or any points on theirs and thats if they survived not fumbling on our kick coverage.

Everyone the roster was a star in college and they're better now than they were then. These sorts of discussions are silly. I concur with this. They are both very good defenses in college. There is no way that they would breathe the same air as the Redskins or any other pro team. This thread and question are both laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffBattles Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 this thread can't be real......100 points. Think about it like this, both of our QB's were STUDS in college.....but we'd dominate so much, we probably wouldn't even have to attempt a pass.

SWFLSkins Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Rex has experience against both of these teams and would throw long TD after long TD, they could not cover three NFL caliber wideouts with college corners, dumb question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Nostril Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 72 is a lot for a team with no real receiving threat, a 3rd rate quarterback, and a banged up OLine, against a college defense filled with NFL level talent. However, I think that the advantages of having NFL O-Linemen, the ability to pick on the weaker members of their defense, the overall experience playing against a high talent level, the complexity of NFL scheming, and LSU/Bama's restriction to only 20 hours of practice a week makes this a blowout. but I feel like 35-0 is more realistic than 72-0.

Mr. Nostril Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 again....both our QB's were GREAT in college....so was Fred Davis, Hankerson, Paul, Helu, and Trent Williams.....every drive we had would end in a touchdown. We also wouldn't give up a first down. Both are QBs were great in college for sure, but John Beck never played against a defense like LSU or Alabama in college. Rex Grossman probably didn't either, but came a lot closer. The best we have to simulating how a game between College players and pro players is the Chicago College All-Star Game http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_College_All-Star_Game. This hasn't been contested in 35 years, and the game has changed immensely since then. Also, it was an exhibition game, and played with an exhibition level of intensity. But that said, it's the best we have. The results were, the pros nearly always won, but not by absurd margins, and not always shutting them out. Oh, and the all stars were playing the NFL Champion, not a bad team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
