The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

I have a feeling it's going to be gut-wrenching!
How do you guys feel??!!

me too. I think just because the eagles offense is deteriorated doesnt mean anything. They got a capable running back in Moats. and reggie brown who scored a TD on us. NOt only that but their defense is still solid. Sheppard is out and maybe Kearse, but other than that theyre good to go. So if anyone thinks were just gonna walk in there and get a win. i dont think so. its going to be a very hard faught game

Of course it'll be gut wrenching.

We're the Redskins. Nothing ever comes easily.

well i had a poll up and i guess it got taken down... was just curious is there were some out the like me and washington 53 who believe that this wont be easy.

I feel the same way...nothing ever comes easy. But for once I dont feel guilty that the Redskins should dominate the e-girls. (not over confident either) They cannot run the ball on us, therefore they will not be able to move the chains. So it will be gut-wrenching only if the players and coaches make it that way. Reskins need to finish making the statement all the way to SuperBowl..."WE ARE HERE TO TAKE HEADS OFF"

I don't care if we're up 35-0 in the fourth quarter, my gut will still be wrenching. I just can't wait for this game to be over -- need to start preping for the playoffs!

this will be a tough nfc east showdown with one team trying to get into the postseason and the other one staying home and playin for pride.so this game will be tough and joe sees it that way too.


our season is riding on it...

That's what I thought about last week's game, and look how that turned out .

This team is firing on all cylinders, and will have plenty of incentive to send a message to the rest of the league on New Yea's Day. There are no worries on my part, especially if #8 is ready to play.

9 carries for 13 yards against the Cardinals... I'll take our chances

based on the latest clinton portis interview the team is loose and having fun.yeah brunel would be my only concern in all reality.the panthers i think have the toughest road against atlanta at atlanta too.

I'm nervous as i've been all year. For some reason the Eagles actually scare me more now than when we played the first time. The worst part is i'll be watching the game with my in-laws(all eagles fans).

Ginns will have this team ready and for sure Gregg Williams will have that defense ready for blood. We may see a shut-out. Skins 24-0

I hit the Giants game right on the nose, 35-20 - Props to myself - Never ever have I done that.... http://www.the-hogs.net/forum/viewtopic. ... ht=#215522
This week:
Redskins 27
Eagles 13

Oh! I am nervous. I am insecure. My team has been indecisive lately. The pass is not working. The rush is stumbling. The OL and DL are not doing their job. The TE and HB are dropping every pass.

Did I forget to say that the sky is falling too?

Redskins 35 - Philthy 0

It is payback time for the humiliating celebrations held in the endzone by Philthy during the last game of the Spurrier tenure. Mark my words.

All i'm saying is that in the past we have ruined other teams playoff chances that looked at us the same way we are looking at Philly. We are playing great football lately and am not lost to the fact we have won 4 straight games that said Philly has nothing to lose against us and that is nerve racking.

The only team beating the Skins this week is the Skins!! Just score 1 more point than the Eagles that's all I ask!!

A Gibbs Redskin team in December, last game, win and they make the playoffs. I close my eyes and see a Redskins team breathing fire on Sunday.

(Don't mention Raiders, Vince Evans, '92...)

Im always sure! The bandwagon is trucking right a long. The doors are locked because I hate people who jump on when the coas is clear.

I said it back on October 11: "Of course we are going to the playoffs. The only question is whether we will have home field advantage and a first round bye."

That's my story, and I am sticking to it.

My son was telling me that when school is back in session next Tuesday, he was gonna wear everything he has that says "Redskins" on it.
I told him that we had to play the game first. He's overly confident, pointing out the injuries and so forth.
I told him that that is exactly why we can lose this game, and that the team still needed him to pull for them.
That's where I stand on this. It's a classic "trap" game. Like Minny for the Giants a few weeks ago. There was no way (on paper) that Minnesota was gonna even be competitive...and yet, they won on three special team scores.
There's only one thing between us and the playoffs, and that's a game.
It's a one game season.
We've got to have this, or it was all for nothing.

I believe the skins' will win, but this game does kinda scare the crap out of me. I just cant help but envision past collapses and heart breakers. And this would be the king! but I know JG will have us ready to play, so I think it will be all good!

35-7...a win. Don't worry!!

I hate to play a team on the road on the last game of the season it doesn't matter what the records are! The most important thing for us is that our team plays as loose as the eagles because they'll likely come out firing deep bombs accompanied by flea flickers, classic reverses, reverse wide reviever option passes, onside kicks, you name it they're gonna throw it at us. What I do like is our defense against their QB, mcmahon is really mobile but can he light us up? doubtfull. SKINS WIN 17-7 if its brunell, SKINS WIN 36-7 if its PRAM.

TC I would agree with you had our schedule been a little different. Say if we had to play Philly in between Dallas and NY. I think with so much on the line, the Skins are foucus on that rather than we should win this game because of injuries etc....It's now turned into we must win to get in.

DE, I would agree with YOU, but it seems that we play great teams tough, and crap teams weakly this year.
It's a trap, my man. We'd better be focused...because this is exactly the type of team we've been losing to.
