HTTRDynasty Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Those D-lines the first two games If we aren't able to establish the run, it's gonna be open season on RGIII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrobert Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 With our record last year I figure 2 prime time games at most. Likely a Thursday night and/or a Monday night. Probably against NFC East foes. Expect alot of 1:00 games... Sincerely, Capt. Obvious Nailed it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 When I look at this schedule, if you for a second forget it's the 'Skins schedule, I see an easy schedule. Easy for OUR TEAM? That is to be determined, but to me it looks like the kind of schedule where a 5/6 win team can manage a .500 record and/or a .500 team could steal a 9-7 record. Does this mean OUR TEAM will manage to do this? Who knows since I really have no idea what to think about them going into this season, but the schedule itself doesn't look incredibly difficult.

HAILSKINSNYC Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I like the schedule.....gotta start 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Yeah NoCal its good to have 3 of the first 4 at home and a few of the early road games against shaky teams like the Falcons and Jets. I'd rather that then having to play the Cowboys, Pats, and, say. Panthers on the road early........that kind of slate can potentially sink your season. I'm not looking for miracles this season.....at this point, want to optimistically cheer for 8-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAILSKINSNYC Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 if read option is back in the offense on a significant basis; we go 11-5....if RG3 is primarily a pocket passer; we're 6-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsGuy Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I notice that the second time we face the Giants, they get a bye the week before. However, our bye (week 8) comes before we face the Patriots. We also start with two home games (Miami and St. Louis) and finish with two road games (Philadelphia and Dallas).

autoidiodyssey Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I like the mid season bye. Like 3 of 4 at home to start, don't like 3 of 4 on the road to finish. Dec 13 in Chicago could be a bad weather game. Other than that who knows. The only team on that schedule you can say you know will be good right now is the Pats. Every other team on the schedule could go 8-8 or worse. I think we could pull 8-8 out of that schedule with decent QB play. Of course decent QB play is very much in question.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 3 out of 4 at home... Then 3 out of four away. Then 3 out of four at home... Then 3 out of 4 away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balki1867 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 This is my dream schedule. Thirteen 1pm starts. One of the three night games is on a Sunday night, so really only two night games that are inconvenient. And the Bears game is late enough in the season that I can get a ticket for cheap.

KuNiT21 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 if read option is back in the offense on a significant basis; we go 11-5....if RG3 is primarily a pocket passer; we're 6-10 I'll have what your smoking. Even last year RG3 did not show nearly close to his explosiveness he did in his rookie year. Teams are also defending the RO way better than our rookie year with RG3. I doubt we use it like Kyle Shanny, the only thing good we have going is the NFC East is weak this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balki1867 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 sunday night game? u talkin bout the skins right? we have a thursday night, monday night, and saturday night game Ha, good catch, I meant to say Saturday night. It's convenient because its on a Saturday night. BTW, if anyone is a scheduling geek like me, it looks like CBS has 1:00 and 4:00 games during the first week of the season. This is kind of weird because CBS usually doesn't do late games that week (to save that time slot for the Tennis US Open Men's Finals). I'm trying to figure out if they no longer air the US Open or something. (As a historical note, they actually created the two MNF slots during week 1 to help alleviate this problem. It was next to impossible to schedule the Broncos, Raiders and Chargers in week 1-- Especially since the Raiders share a market with the 49ers and they try to avoid having them play at the same time, and the Raiders share a stadium with the Oakland As and they need 24 hours to convert it).

redrobert Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Per CBS Sports " Teams That Could Have Hot Start to the Season"... Washington Redskins: Dolphins, Rams, at Giants, Eagles, at Falcons, at Jets, Buccaneers Washington doesn't exactly have the league's strongest roster, but the same can be said for most of their early-season opponents. This crew combined for a 42-70 record last year, good for a paltry 0.375 winning percentage. They only go on the road three times here, and all three games see them staying on the east coast. Two of them are in New Jersey. Six of these seven opponents are will pick in the top half of the NFL draft's first round next week and four of them have quarterback situations that are very... up in the air. Washington hits the bye right at the end of this stretch, and where their record stands at that time could go a long way toward determining if either Robert Griffin III or Jay Gruden have a future in D.C.

balki1867 Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 That sounds pretty spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 That final 6 games is pretty brutal. And I dont even see an opportunity for one of them to get flexed. Maybe the Dallas game if we are in contention. Overall it is a relatively easy schedule though. Glad to have the extra week to prepare for the Pats.

worldpost Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 8-8 if I'm being optimistic 6-10 if I'm being realistic 4-12 if I'm being a typical shiny person that I am.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passepartout Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Hope that they can get at least an 8-8 record. As it is crucial for RGIII to bring back the 2012 spark. Now or never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I don't know, in most years Id be doing backflips over that schedule. It's not intimidating at all. However, based on the QB play, I'm a little concerned. With even slightly above average QB play, that could be an 8-8 year easy imo. I guess we will see how it plays out, I could just as easily see us at 0-4 after the first quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD Riggo Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Complete crap schedule! We start against the phish .. total crap team! Then, the Bills, Jits, and the Panthers? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Roommate is a Dolphins fans so I'll probably go to the opener But anyone making record predictions or declaring certain games "easy" or "hard" is just playing themselves. It never turns out that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Best case 6-7 wins, worst case 2-3 wins. Skins could be 3-4 or 4-3 at the bye. If they are 2-5 or worse; Gruden may not survive the bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
