TheGreatBuzz Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Looks like I'm either going to Dallas in Turkey day or the Baltimore game. See what the wife decides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rise of DC Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 NFL loves giving the Redskins a Saturday night game during the holidays. 3rd year in a row I believe. Won them both though haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurgundyMalaise Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 hmm so we have to play a Primetime night game on Sunday vs the Pack then turn around and play Dallas on Thanksgiving? Not to mention, having a Monday Night game against the Panthers then having to play Saturday? On top of having to go to London to play a game? Hope these guys get some rest and trainers are working OT this season.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsailand Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 We play the Browns on October 2nd. Darn, I was looking forward to a Kirk-RG3 matchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won them both though haha It looks like much of the league is playing Saturday the 24th, and there are only two games on Christmas Day (Sunday the 25th).

SkinsPassion4Life Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 we have to be a minimum of 4-3 after 7 games...more like 5-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsGuy Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Darn, I was looking forward to a Kirk-RG3 matchup. It's possible we could've gotten the Browns week one, and still not faced Griffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsGuy Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Screw who we play and when...we got a absolutely PERFECT bye placement! It is a good place for it. However, we knew that is where the bye week would be because we play in London on 10/30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Wow, that schedule blows. The way I look at it, it again gives the chance to get off to a good start. Four out of the first six at home.......really can't ask for much better than that. I'd rather that than having to play a lot of tough teams at the beginning. Granted, the three away games in a row starting on Thanksgiving stinks, but that is the tradeoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, the three away games in a row starting on Thanksgiving stinks, but that is the tradeoff. it is more the timing of the games than the schedule itself. Monday night vs panthers followed by at chicago saturday at 1, which is in late december, sunday night vs packers followed by thursday at dallas, with a west coast trip at arizona thrown in for good measure. All in the second half. Thats going to be an extremely tough second half of the season. You are right though, the first half is the polar opposite and much more manageable. Then again, the good teams win with schedules like these, so its no excuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 We have a chance to start 5-2 or 4-3 honestly. And we will need a strong start because after Detroit we could easily go 2-5 or 1-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsPassion4Life Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 we play the Packers on a Sunday night and then at Dallas on Thursday? that's completely unfair.......plus, didn't we play 3 straight road games recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM72 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Lol...This fanbase. Just to let everyone know, our strength of schedule is 17th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autoidiodyssey Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Looks to me like we don't get anyone coming off a bye and only one team (Giants wk17) coming of a Thursday game. Didn't we have like 5 games against teams coming off byes or Thursday games last year? The Sunday night to Thursday and Monday to Saturday turn arounds suck. And I don't like Chicago on Xmas eve for the potential weather issues. But I guess it could have been worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsGuy Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Not surprising they (NFL Network idiots) are picking the Cowboys to go to 11-5, and sweeping the Redskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortisBetts Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Lol...This fanbase. Just to let everyone know, our strength of schedule is 17th. The strength isn't really the issue. Its the times of the games that is the problem. Not a lot of time to rest at all in the second half of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
