Of the 4, the Skins would be a lean. They're playing tough lately and N.O. is coming off their biggest win in their history. Also, they have to go to Atlanta next week. Pts. look good, only to go up as the week progresses.

Good Luck this week. New Orleans might be tough coming off a bye week. Just kidding!

Still considering Wash

Man...that's 3 now I've seen with confidence in the 'Skins...

I absolutely bow to your (all 3!) sports psycology, but I just don't see it.

Beat a questionable Denver, after allowing Orton more than 10y/pass in the first half...
...scored 10 points in the last 3 minutes to get up...

Dallas have struggled all season against top 10 (15 even!) D's, and got a girft 7 to get them on their way last week against an up and down Philli...

I see Saints have some injury problems, but still, not sure I see how Wash keep up... :shrug:

?People are going to talk about this game and maybe blow it out of proportion a little bit,? said Drew Brees(notes), who threw for 371 yards and five touchdowns. ?This game doesn?t entitle us to anything. It?s just another win in the win column. If anything, you have the challenge of coming back on a short week and playing at Washington. That?s what I mean when I say it gets tougher.?

New Orleans lost its last two games versus Washington, falling 29-24 at FedEx Field on Sept. 14, 2008. The Saints have dropped four of the last six matchups and are 7-15 all time against the Redskins.
Brees has thrown six interceptions and one touchdown in three starts versus Washington.

I'd think that Joe Pub will be all over N.O - whatever...
That thrashing of N.E
on MNF is what the public remembers....the Skins are much more competitive lately..
FA signing of Levi Jones has been huge for the Skins banged up OLine...Portis is out again but is very overrated and Cartwright and Mason are getting it done....S.Lewis' play calling has been a nice little improvement...When Campbell has time to throw
he makes good decisions..

Looks like D.Hall is out but
A.Haynesworth looks like a go..

Skins + DD's seems like plenty enuff...

love gb,dude....excellent passing games are the raven`s wolfsbane...

:nooo:

weez, give up predicting Colts and Ravens games, you haven't done well at all :sadwave:

What did the excellent passing games of Colts, Pats, Chargers do for them? I know they lost 2 of those games but it wasn't because of the "excellent passing games".

c'mon mayne :(

Saints won their game of the century last week on Monday night. The are out of rhythm in terms of preparation and have to travel on short week. The Saints have their road game of the season next week on MNF in Atlanta. This has to hurt preparation for this week at least a little bit. This is the NFL, where the margin for error is slim. For the Saints, the margin of error in the passing game is almost none. Many of their completions are to covered receivers. At least 4 times this season, this timing b/w Brees and the receivers was not there.....@Buff, vs NYJets, @StLou and @Miami(for much of the game, anyway). These were 4 close games (at least closer than the score would indicate). There is no coincidence that this lack of offensive rhythm occurred thrice on the road out of 5 road games. Without defensive scores, the Saints lose to Miami and could have lost to the Bills, StLouis and Jets (just ask Weasel, he'll be glad to let you know how many defensive TDs the Saints put up on his J-E--T-S).

Also, I wore pants and a jacket for the first time since March 2 weeks ago. I've worn shorts almost everyday until last week. It just isn't very cold here. The high was 50 the other day and folks were freaking out around here. These guys are used to practicing and playing indoors or in temparate weather. I am no meteorologist, but I can guess that Washington this weekend will be uncomfortably cold for many of these players. I think this can affect the precision passing game even further.

Wash is hungry. Wash can run the ball against the Saints. Haynesworth is a force. Saints DB are still ailing. Crazier things have happened than Wash losing by 9 or less, or even winning this game.....

Just one man's opinion.

Thanks gents.



Still considering ATL

GL:weed:

Good Luck this week Cie but ATL scares me...they will be without QB Ryan, HB Turner and their defense is porous.

Plus the Eagles have won 6 of the last 7 SU against the Falcons including 2 straight in the series
