War Paint Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Skins flying out to the West coast and facing a team that plays good defense, speed all over the field, a strong running game and should have won the game against Colts. Hmm I would say this is a set up for a L. 17 - 31 Raiders Hopefully Matt Flynn is horrible and DMC doesn't run all over the boys and my Skins get the win. Man, if we get blown out by the Raiders, this place is going to be the Chernobyl of message boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek1973 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 In the Detroit game the Lions had the ball three times in the third quarter. They punted all three times and never crossed midfield. Our offense produced zero points off of those three punts. We are team built around a powerful O and a D that comes and goes. The offense must take advantage when the D has a stretch of the game were they are getting stops. The also forced three straight punts in the first half of the Philly game that yielded us 0 points. And against the Lions, the D produced 7 points. The O produced 13 points. The offense is still the problem. Thank you Thank you Thank you. I couldn't have said it better myself. yes the D has major issues but has anyone checked how many turnovers RGIII has in 3 games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skins island connection Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 All I know is that if the Skins lose this weekend, you might as well get your water jugs, flashlights, soup cans, etc, and head for the basement. Um, won't it be crowded down there? I mean, where will the players be moved to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titaw Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Raiders - 27 Skins - 17 Without the threat of the run RGIII is simply average at best. Couple that with a bad O-line, yes ours is bad, and a terrible Defense the Rams are looking forward to a top 5 draft pick. I say the Skins luck-box into 2 MAYBE 3 wins this year and this one is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Um, won't it be crowded down there? I mean, where will the players be moved to? Well speaking for myself, I'm not the capture/torture type, but in that scenario, there will surely be players who are captured, and brought underground for a real life game of "Operation." *Edit, now I see what you meant :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverboatGambler Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Thank you Thank you Thank you. I couldn't have said it better myself. yes the D has major issues but has anyone checked how many turnovers RGIII has in 3 games? 4 or 5? Against 4 or 5 TDs .There are worse in the league . His production has been mid pack garbage time or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reign Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 29 to 10.... Redskins Oakland gets exposed as a bad team (yet again, for over a decade now) and the Skins FINALLY start playing lights out like last season. RGIII flashed his run last game, so oakland has to game plan for it. You can't ignore a 23 yard run. Defense gets slapped around by Fletcher a little and starts playing better. Rambo gets a second chance and blows it on a 40 yard TD pass, gets pulled from the game, and they get a field goal late. 2 TD Passes, 1 Rushing from RGIII... 1 TD from morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hail2skins Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 We will not win until after the bye. Then I think we will rip off a few Ws in a row including one over the broncos and all will be forgiven though we will have resigned ourselved to a mediocre at best season by then. Unless the Broncos suffer some significant injuries on the offensive side of the ball between now and October 27th, I'm wondering if we can petition the league to let us forfeit that game and let us have another bye week. I cringe when I think about what Manning and Decker/Welker/Thompson will do to this defense.......recall the 2007 game against the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aolforbroadband Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Remember back in 2009 in Zorn's 2nd year where we really sucked yet went out to Oakland and whooped their asses? I'm hoping for a similar win for the Redskins this time around. I don't expect either Raiders QB(whichever plays) to do much of anything and the tackling can only get better on defense after the first 3 weeks. Just stop McFadden or let him injure his foot again and we should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Schefter is saying Pryor won't play, so we face Flynn. Skins pull it together, win 34-17. Raiders score 1 TD in the first half and 10 points in garbage time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Biggums Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 1/4 away from being 0-16. Rams Fans will soon start to rejoice. Raiders 34 Redsins 21 Rams might end up with the # 1 and 2 pick in the NFL draft lol I have a bad feeling the skins drop to 0-4 after this one, but Im thinking about last season's turn around after the bye week. History seems to repeat itself . I have put myself way out on a thin limb with my prediction of this team making it to the SB this season. Until the Skins are eliminated from paloff contention I'm sticking to my guns with this prediction. Hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Perhaps think the weekly prediction thread should double as the pregame thread, since my pregame thread tanked last week. If the OP agrees, consider renaming the thread? Prediction / Thoughts Thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussieskin Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 I saw the Raiders play last weekend, and they are not good, if we lose this we will be 0-3 and doing it really hard: however i do believe that the Skins will win and win comfortably, i dont think they are good enough on offence and our offence will put them to the spear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General NSJ Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Skins win 34-30. I expect the O to finally put up some points, but the D will still blow. We cannot, repeat CANNOT go 0-4!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEANDWARF Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Surprised at the losses predicted in this thread. Redskins 31-20 The offense looks better though still not all the way there and the defense does just enough to contain a pretty woeful Raiders attack. Surprised? Which of the 3 losses shows you that we are not going to bye 0-4? (Not calling you out, just asking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
