Warhead36 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Lions have a good OL, a potential stud RB in Swift, and a potential stud WR in St. Brown. But Goff is average at best and their D is mostly trash. I'd still expect to win but agree it'll probably be high scoring. Thinking something like 34-27.

The Eagles scored at will against them. Common sense would tell you this is another shootout. So it will end 17-15. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan93 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I’m not sure how good the Lions defense is or will be with Aaron Glenn as their defensive coordinator. He was a great corner but not sure how he calling a defense. I live in Philly and had the Eagles game on in the background. Lions made zero adjustments to Hurts scrambling. He ran so easily through that defense. Saw Hutchinson huffing and puffing chasing him down all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels more like where we shoulda started in the first place, middle of the pack or higher is generous until we beat someone like the Eagles (who don't look like they've missed a beat from last season) Edited September 14, 2022 by Renegade7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMacAttack Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Alabammy almost got beat by Texas minus it's starting QB. So they are 2-0 but a sloppy game cost them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were in the top 10 in most rankings before the season started. Now with losing Prescott, they are in free fall. I like it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HigSkin Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) Interesting read coming from WaPo.... The Commanders could start 6-1? The Commanders could start 6-1! Edited September 16, 2022 by HigSkin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Commanders could start 6-1! This is what I've been saying. And I'm not even basing it on who we play because we'll win a game we shouldn't and we'll lose a game we shouldn't. But we have an offense that's dangerous. Other teams are falling apart and as long as we're not injured we have the talent to hang with anybody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 With our defense, 6-1 seems unlikely. We could still have a decent start depending on the state of our opponents when we face them. Whatever good our offense can do, could be counteracted by our defense.

NoCalMike Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I think one major difference in this season with Wentz vs last season with Henicke is that a turnover doesn't effectively end all hope in a game because the offense legitimately has the ability to score on any individual play. Last season with TH, so many drives looked good at the start but when you have to run 15+ successful plays on every drive, it becomes extremely difficult to sustain. With Wentz, he can come back from a turnover and throw a laser guided strike behind the defense. Obviously turnovers are sitll bad, especially later in the game, but it isn't going to be a nail in the coffin the way it was last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like his negativity either, but I agree with him on this one. Can’t see being 6-1, with the defense (barring a HUGEEE improvement on that side these next few games).

NoVaSkins21 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 The offense has playoff potential, but the defense will drag this team to 6-11 or 5-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
