It's a lock

This season the Redskins had the 2nd hardest schedule. The Seahawks had the easiest schedukle. Personaly I think this gives the redskins alot of good experience in tough games.

No problem man Go Skins!!!!!!!!!

This hole easy schedule/hard schedule argument is pretty stupid in my opinion. Seattle can't help who they play. They have done what good teams do, which is beat the bad teams. The Skins on the other hand, have struggled with this at times this season (i.e. Oakland). Plus we almost lost to the Cardinals, a team that Seattle blew out twice. Don't forget that Seattle beat Dallas, NYG, Colts (albeit a depleted Colts team), and went up to Philly and destroyed them 42-0. Now I'm not saying that they are better than the Skins (I think that we are better) but you can't just judge a team by the schedule that it plays.

It's one of many factors that are used to evaluate how a team did all year long.

We could just look at how they did in their last game - is that what you'd suggest? Do you have a "formula" that you'd suggest is a way of breaking down our chances in this game? That's all this is about - that and the fact that most of their fans and the idiot bettors all think we are going to lose by a touchdown and a field goal. Now that is a joke!

you just just rattle on about us coming in here and asking you to bowdown and say your team will lose....

WTF are you guys talking about. our fans are not saying anything like that. WE just want YOU to know how good we are just like YOU want to tell us how good YOU really are. what a stupid thing to say. Its like we cant defend ourselves from this bashing?

It is not our fault that the most of the teams we played sucked so bad. But the point is we beat them because thats what good teams do. you beat us by 3 at home. now your not at home and you will lose by 3...or more. ohhhh yea now bow down cuz thats what im really trying to say. freaking stupid statement.

And for that 30 year old man who still watches cartoons(frio), get a woman, and move out of your grannys basement.

Also some loser said your dimolished the redskins...

If it wasn't for the pplayoff rookie QB and the sloppy play on offense. you would have lost. All we got to do is limit the turnovers and we win. You beat the bucs by 7 because of a playoff rookie QB. Hasselbeck has been to a few playoffs now even though they have been loses he atleast has his feet yet. it will be a totally different game fellers!

I'm sure Hass will be fully prepared to loss another playoff game because, well that's what he does.

One min. you are talking about beating teams that have poor records and it not the ChickenHawks fault. Then you turn around and say we only beat a rookie playoff QB. Combine the two post and it equals a big joke. I hope you didn't hurt yourself thinging that one up.

BTW that rookie playoff QB is only that because he was able to lead his team to the playoffs. We also beat the #1 defense in that game. In that game we beat a team that was a few years removed from the Super Bowl.

Who did you say you guys beat this year???
Denny and the Cards 2 times
The Rams Twice
The NFC East We're in the East (edit: 2/3 of the East)
The Niners Twice
The Texans
Titans
No one seems to give the Hawks credit for the win over the Colts but you can't complain, after all no one laughing at the fact that you are one of the few teams to loss to the Pack this year

There is a Wikipedia entry I'd like to share with all of you: False dilemma.

An excerpt:
Quote:
The logical fallacy of false dilemma, which is also known as fallacy of the excluded middle, false dichotomy, either/or dilemma or bifurcation, involves a situation in which two alternative points of view are held to be the only options, when in reality there exist one or more alternate options which have not been considered.

Three cheers for the HogsNet. I suspect this is the first thread on any sports board to refer to the fallacy of the excluded middle.

Nice work!

no one whomps the Redskins!!!

LOL well...maybe the Giants...one time....LOL

Unless Paul Allen dies suddenly, there's no chance of the Seahawks coming close to matching the emotional intensity of that Perfect Storm, SkinsChic.
Even then, there'd be no time to think about it. Allen would be more missed in Silicon Valley than Seattle.

The Seahawks did have close games vs the Cowboys and Giants. The Giants got 2 questionable TDs especially the Shockey TD to give them a chance to win that game. Even if Bledsoe didn't throw that pick that games goes into OT. They also had injuries in those games. Most of their injuried players are back. The only bad teams the Seahawks struggled with were the 49ers away and Titans. For the most part, they blew out the bad teams ( Rams at home, 49ers at home, Cardinals 2x, Texans, Eagles ). The Seahawks have a good offense, run defense, and red zone defense. The only weakness the Seahawks have is the pass defense partly to due injuries. The Redskins are a good team, but have struggled on the road. They barely beat the Cardinals, were losing to the Eagles for 3 quarters, and could have lost to Tampa. The Tampa WR drops the tying TD pass, then the next play Simms overthrew an open WR. One of the defensive TDs was luck. The Redskin def player fumbles the ball while being tackled and the ball bounces right into another Redskin def player. It will close because the Redskins are rarely are blown out, the Seahawks should win by 7-10 pts.

the Seahawks should win by 7-10 pts.

That's why they play the games!!

Honestly would you give me 7-10 point on a bet in this game??

Your mouth sure looks purdy.

The spread is 9 pts. The Redskins could cover, but I think the Seahawks win.

the SKins will be fine in this game. I think we will make alot of big plays early that will take away their 12th man

In order to quiet the 12th Man, the Redskins need to have double digits ahead of the Hawks ALL GAME. Because in every game we've played against the NFC East, the Hawks have made 4th quarter comebacks.

Seriously guys, you talk an amazing amount of smack, especially attacking my spelling after I just got done making a post saying how I respect the skins and expect this to be a tough game?

Again: every year there is a team with the lowest SOS, not every year that team goes on to be the #1 seed. Good teams beat bad ones. Not the other way around. If Seattle did not deserve to be where they are they would have lost quite a good deal more.

As for talking smack about CITIES?! WHAT!? the Skins will win Saturday because Starbucks was started in Seattle!? What!? "Creampuffs" "Khakis" making fun of the teams OWNER? Honestly. A for creativity, F for execution.

Give this "soft team" crap a rest, already. Talk crap once you've actually won the game. For now: Save it. You're making yourself look all the more foolish for when the skins get SHUT DOWN.

See? and I was polite before you all decided to be rude.

So, you think smack talk is best served in hindsight?
