Vick will have something to prove?
Vick will be highly motivated to play well in his return game. Will we stand up to the test? I think we will if RG3 plays. Not so sure if Cousins plays. However, thank goodness for Captain Kirk today!!

That's what I heard as well.

Vick and McCoy are done.
The road to the number 1 pick gaining speed!

Is Bryce Brown a better RB than Trent Richardson?

Best example I can give, what Trent did draggin us in the endzone I can't see Brown doing that to any team.

No doubt. Trent is an animal. That guy is strong. Glad we don't have to face him twice a year. I am glad he was banged up.

It's hard to prove anything from the bench.

I don't understand the comparisons - we are playing the eagles and they will be fired up to win their last game at home
this team will be playing with nothing to lose against a hated divisional rival

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)

+1. Can't expect to go in and just walk all over the Eagles no matter how much they suck this year. I hope it happens, would love to completely whip up on them twice this season.

Man, this game makes me nervous.
Philly has been our personal house of horrors for the last decade.
Not counting those two great Joe Gibbs playoff runs, Philly has beaten us for the most part.
Heck, they've won 15 of the last 22 games and even in our best form, most inter divisional games have been splits.
With division rivals you never really know what's going to happen.
Would be a great time for some magic, though.

It is true that we have struggled, but a new era is upon us my friend. RGIII is slowly making me a believer that we have nothing to fear from these division rival games.

They must focus on destroying the confidence of the Eagles, and shutting the crowd up, early. They must take the lead, then put their heels to the throat of the Eagles soul... and keep it there for 4 quarters. This is a good opportunity for a statement game. Not only will the Redskins win the games they should... they will do it in the Eagle's house... in a very convincing manner. Focus. Resolve. Execution. Finishing.
Haslett's crew is the key this week.

Actually, I like controlling the TOP with our running game, and keeping Haslett's guys watching.

Looks like Vick WILL be suiting up for this game. He's projected to be the back-up, but this is Andy Ried we are talking about here; I suspect Vick will have a more active role than they are letting on.
Otherwise, why have him active? Vick may not get the start, but I wouldn't expect him to sit on the bench long if Foles struggles.
