UKskins Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 For what it's worth - in the UK we get one televised game per kick off spot on SkySports - Skins vs Cow****es has been selected as the TV game for the kick off slot this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a Pat Summerall and John Madden called game in the early 90s... those.. were the days. HTTR Those really were the days. And this game really is big.

I know I've said multiple times this season, big game, but this one to me is the biggest of the season culturally especially for Jay. It would break the win one lose one and the Cowboys recent dominance over them. Even in 2015, when the Cowboys weren't good and on a losing streak with a backup QB, they came into Fedex on Monday night and their defense dominated and they won. After the hoopla of the GB win in 2016, what team broke that momentum, the next week -- Dallas. Both Dallas match ups last year were key games and momentum killers.

This really might be our biggest game of the year. Even if we do make the playoffs. If we win, we will make the playoffs and I dont think we look back at all.

goskins10 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 TI agree with all saying this is a big game. This either starts to break all the bad things that have come when we have games that we can take control or just the same old **** with a slightly different cast.

rumplestilskin Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 If we can win minus Thompson, Crowder and Richardson that will definitely be a statement game. Run AD.... all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooleyfan1993 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Sucks that Thompson is out for today’s game. Anyone know if Richardson is definitely out? I didnt See him listed as out in schefters tweets or any other media members tweets today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cakmoney61 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I consider the Redskins beating the Cowboys much more a fantasy than a reality or even a hope. I'm expecting very little productivity coming from the offense while Dallas' defense has been very impressive. In fact, my main concern is if the Redskins can avoid being shut out. The Redskins defense has more of a smoke-and-mirrors feel to it so far this year and I expect Dallas to expose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still holding out hope that CT plays as he was listed as questionable, then doubtful after the Shefter report and now back to questionable. Otherwise I am starting to wonder the extent of his knee injury. We sure could use him today if only for a few snaps. 3 minutes ago, cakmoney61 said: I consider the Redskins beating the Cowboys much more a fantasy than a reality or even a hope.

A close game is expected but no where near a fantasy if the Skins win at home. The Redskins play their worst football against the Giants and the Cowboys and I expect that trend to continue today. It's hard to shut out even the worst offensive teams, but nothing is out the realm of possibility when the Redskins play the Cowboys and it's mostly bad. So I will keep expectations very low.

Dang, pessimist much? Even Vegas has this as a pick em game. It's going to be a dogfight. Let's just pray we bring enough fight to come out on top. Hail.

Warhead36 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 They've beaten us four in a row and Gruden has never beaten the Cowboys at home. I mean at some point, probability kicks in in your favor right? Like the Gruden never winning Week 1 stat? If we were healthy or at least healthiER I'd like our chances more.

Skinsinparadise Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I liked Amari Cooper in the draft --I've seen some say he doesn't love football so I don't about that part of his personality. but if it checks out, intriguing. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/25041142/dallas-cowboys-researching-amari-cooper-considering-trade-oakland-raiders-wr The Cowboys are not alone; the Raiders have heard inquiries on Cooper from, among others, the Washington Redskins and Indianapolis Colts, according to a league source. But of all the teams that need wide receivers, the most intriguing is Dallas, and it would not be the first time that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has dealt for a receiver before the league's trade deadline.

goskins10 Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I don’t know about his love for football but I know he has severely underperformed since his first season. He also carries a big CAP number for next season. And I heard Osk wants a 1st. If ghey eat eat all his salary and we give them no more than a 5th then fine. No way they do that so it should get s no for us. But it the rumor is true about us asking I like that they are at least aware they gave an issue. And before say it’s obvious, so far that has not been the case for the FO. They have arrogantly decided they are ok no matter how obvious it may be to everyone else. I present NT and LG as exhibits A and B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I present NT and LG as exhibits A and B. I wouldn't give up a first. I'd consider a 3rd though. I haven't though delved deep into Cooper since they draft so I defer to anyone who has paid more attention. In Alabama, the dude was polished route runner, clutch too.

Thinking Skins Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 On 10/15/2018 at 5:09 PM, Thinking Skins said: Hey one thing I wanted to look at. If you look at our first 5 QBs so far this year in terms of sack percentage: Sam Bradford: 7.0 (we had 2) Andrew Luck: 3.4 (we had 1) Aaron Rodgers: 7.1 (we had 4) Drew Brees: 4.0 (we had 2) Cam Newton: 4.5 (we had 1) Looking ahead, we've got Dak Prescott 10.0 Eli Manning 8.0 Matt Ryan 7.1 Jamis Winston 6.2 Deshaun Watson 10.3 That seems to be a big difference over the next 5 games in terms of the amount of pressure we should be able to put up against them. That could easily translate to more sacks, but also more pressures and more turnovers. Hopefully if we have leads like against the Cardinals, Packers or Panthers, we are able to hold onto them a little better because those comeback drives get stalled earlier. Just thought I'd point this out. We had 4 sacks against Dallas, NY gave up 4 to ATL, so maybe we're seeing a sack steak coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
