All your pictures dont show up (or well atleast for me).

Anyways, you guys get to watch the best matchup of the year at 4:15 tommorow. The NFL's best offense vs. the NFL's best defense. For three and a half quarters you will see the great passing attack of the Patriots vs. the dominant secondary of Washington. Too bad by mid fourth quarter our defense will be winded thanks to our battered offense.

Youve got to use the [img ] [/img ] (without the spaces) tags and just put the url in between. Also remove this from the part after .gif

Really nervous about the Pats-Skins game. It could either be a blowout, or one of those 21-17 type of games.

I don't think the Redskins offense will have much luck. And I don't think the Redskins can stop the Pats spread offense. I know they have a good defense, but this offense is explosive.

Although this game could be a trap game for the Pats. While I'm sure they will be drilled that they need to focus at the task at hand, it will be hard to be looking ahead to the Colts.

The Skins are the only team with a decent secondary that the Pats have(are going to) faced. I could see this be a close game or a blow out

Yes, exactly my point.

We're allowing 14 points per game, have the fifth best rushing defense in the league, a top 10 pass defense and one of the better secondary's in the league. Either you guys are underestimating the Skins defense, or overrating the Patriots offense. Yes, the Patriots have a great offense but we have the secondary to match up with Welker, Moss, and Stallworth. They're not gonna run the ball well, and they're not gonna go over the middle, especially with Landry and Taylor there.

Of course, I'll eat my crow if this is a blowout, but hopefully it isn't. Not saying the Redskins will win this game, but its gonna be close.

The game will be close. We have the best third down defense in the NFL (I think). I just hope our offense can get a first down. We kind of struggle with those A first down for our offense is what a TD is to some of the better offenses :-? .

I think this game is going to be very close and if the skins can some how jump on the Pats early, I really think they can make it a game and maybe even win.

I definetly will be taking the skins +15.5 (if gambling was legal of course)

If the Skins can get to Brady (which has been damn near impossible this season) I think the Secondary will be feasting all day....If Brady gets time....just practice saying TOUCHDOWN MOSS!

Pats 28-20

Honestly, I don't know if the Redskins will win or not but you have to think they will cover the 16 1/2 point spread against the Pats.

The Rams are a team to me that arent too far away, and i'm not saying that because they are leading the Browns 7-0. With Jackson and Bulger back in the lineup they should put some points up. Probably one of the better winless teams(at this stage of the season) you're going to find.

They still don't have an offensive line.

The field in Wembley Stadium is horrible. Their are holes everywhere.

How soon before someone brings up the subject of Kelly Holcomb should have been the starter before now. :D

And then the Vikings go 3 and out. So much for developing momentum.

How do you let Greg Lewis go 50 yards deep and make the catch.
