given brees's 80 billion passing yards per game vs. our horrendous pass defense, do you think they'll blow us out? will it be close?

They're far from being invincible. Has Joe Gibbs ever lost as many as three games in December? I refuse to believe anything other than a Redskins win this week.

I predict we will win! I pick the Skins every week in my pool, I'm not stupid even if I'm an idiot for my team. Two years ago I won $1,100 and I've been in the top quarter every year. I would have won $300 more if I had picked against the Skins in the last game. I won't say I thought they would lose because I'll never say that. Let's just say even I would have picked that as my bye if I could have, but pick against them? Never.

The Redskins will "lose" by negative 13 points.

we have a monster running game and they are weak at stopping the run so we got a shot. as long as we stay with the run and pound it in at the goal line, nobody can stop Brees though

I feel like we're going to win, but I don't know why... maybe it's because the Saints are the Saints and they can't have gotten this good this quick... that being said, our defense just doesn't match up with their offense at all... we need to keep them off the field as much as possible and get in Brees' face...

It's faulty to bring forth any stats from the Gibbs I era.

Whatever's going on, it isn't anywhere close to the way it was and I can't do anything but doubt that it will any time soon.

The problem is bigger than even Joseph Jackson Gibbs can fix.

BTW, 34-20. Naw'lins.

Went 2-2 in 04 and lost none in 05 and is down 0-2 this year.

me too. if NO hits some big plays in the passing game early and gets up by a bunch, keeping the heat on like they did against dallas, and we have to abandon the running game, we could end up losing by 30.

it's on the D to make sure that doesn't happen. obviously some great ball control offense will help, but it won't matter a lick if we go on a 13 play, 80 yard, 6 minute TD drive, if NO turns around and hits 2 big passes for a score in return.

We'll pull off the BIG upset in a very physical close game.

I wonder who those 9 are that thought this would be a bad loss - who dat - half time and we look a lot better than the Saints :lol:
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

Never give up on a Joe Gibbs Redskin team. The results from 20 years ago tell us how he coaches. He's the same guy.
