Mr. Sinister Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 The Lions have never won in DC I just heard. Hopefully that means that the Skins can keep their homefield advantage this weekend. Redskins and home field advantage don't even belong in the same sentence. Only a handful of teams can claim that they have a legit home field advantage. For everyone else, your home field advantage is only as good as your team. Our home record has been putrid for the last 6-7 years. Some idiots can't even stay quiet on offense, and cheer loudly on defense. 20 years of overall futility can do that.

MumboSauce Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Lions 34 Skins 21 I don't see the offense or defense improving that much in a week. I think the O may be a tad better and get TD in the first half and get a couple first downs. Secondary will get torched unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skins island connection Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 No 1st round pick in 2014 = No Clowney Haslett would put Clowney in secondary help. Just the way he is about not utilizing player potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Clowney is a 4-3 DE, so I'm not sure how he would fit in our defense. I suppose we'd make it work, but its a moot point since we'll have no chance to draft him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheresRickySanders83 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 So.....a lot of fans here actually predicted the Skins would win at LF...now a lot of fans are predicting the Lions will beat us by double-digits. Hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.T.real,lights,out Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 This team is very unpredictable...hoping we get our act together and get a W....going with 28-17 SKINS!

DJD2 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 This one could get ugly quickly if they can't establish some (any ?) kind of offensive identity in the first half and keep the Detroit offense on the sideline. I think they look better this week but ultimately the secondary gets exposed again. Lions 38 Redskins 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanzo the Razor Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I have no real basis for thinking this, but I think it'll depend on if Reggie Bush plays. With him there, the Lions have a way to burn you with the run or with Megatron -- without Bush, I think it frees the defense up to play the pass a bit more. I am hoping this is the week the Skins offense gets back in sync and plays the way they did in the second half of these last two games for the entire game. Converting third downs, time of possession, faster passing plays that actually connect, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBash Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I just want there to be a damn competitive 1st half. But, I predict Stafford has his way with us, along with some of their RBs on screens and dump offs. We give up a lot of yards again while Robert looks a little more like himself, but not enough to win. We lose 34-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkskin Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Lions 37 Skins 21 I'm afraid we simply cannot match up with megatron--well nobody can. But the rest of our D is not going to make up for anything. Stafford over 400 yards. Bush won't likely play, but it wont matter...****! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cakmoney61 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 The Redskins defense is light years from NFL caliber and so is the special teams. This defense, however, may be historically bad if the Redskins offense can't help it by keeping it off the field with long, time-consuming drives. The defense looks totally helpless.

deejaydana Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I read an encouraging stat earlier this morning: The Lions are 0-21 when visiting DC. That said, I don't like the matchups in this game for us: Detroit will be getting Nick Fairley back to team with the NFL's dirtiest player and Megatron is basically going to do anything he wants. My hunch? Take the over which sits at 49 points presently and hold out hope that the home team gets it together this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paloosa Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Right now it is hard to pick the Redskins even though I know at some point they will get on track offensively. But one week of practice dedicated to tackling isn't going to make them better tacklers especially they are limited to how many days they can be in pads. The players need to take the bull by the balls and get the job done because they can't rely on Jim Haslett to make any corrections. If they go 0-3 and they keep Haslett then they deserve to miss the playoffs and be picking in the top 10 of the draft again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you are referring to the Redskins picking in the second round and beyond, because, as has been mentioned a number of times in this thread, the Rams have the Redskins' first-round draft pick due to the trade to move up to get RG3.
