I feel like this game will be a battle til the end and Flacco will be able to pick our def apart. Our run D is still pretty good so I think we can limit Rice (lets hope Cam only gives the ball to Rice 15 times or so) :D. RGIII brings so many things to the game and will hopefully be able to confuse your def and it doesn't hurt that Suggs will be questionable to play (sucks he got hurt cause he is one of my fav players to watch). I still think you guys are the better overall team and a model franchise that I hope the Skins can emulate one day. I can't pick against the Skins this week so I will say Redskins 24 Ravens 21. Most of my friends are Ravens fans also so I hope I can rub it in their faces. Lets hope for a great game and no injuries
I think most folks would agree with you. However I feel we are held back by coaching so much that the Ravens probably lose this game.

Alfred Morris is going to churn that clock big time. That dude is VERY good.

Not if they are playing from behind. If Harbaugh tries his "AFC North" style this game, I think he loses.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
I'm hoping RG3's inexperience is tested by ER20's ball hawking.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
I'm used to routinely laughing at the Skins and their fans, but they are getting better now while the Ravens are getting worse. So I cant talk any bit of trash this time around

I can't believe how he came out of nowhere this year. Morris is doing what Foster does for the Texans. It's the same offense and they almost look like the same player. That kid is very impressive and incredibly tough to bring down on those stretch runs.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
Without a pass rush at our end and a suspect secondary (with bad communication skills), I think RGIII picks our D apart. Couple that with nice play action, look out. On Offense, it is hard to say, cause Falco has a habit of not showing up until the end of games, and by then, it may be too late. I look for the Skins to get a W.

I have to agree.
Finally this game is gonna be something and will be the talk of the region up and down 95s and 295.
I hate talking about family to strangers but what a difference in quarterbacks!
Its hard to say how the Skins are gonna play or what they are capable of, because RGIII inspires the team to play harder. the sideline was crazy in last nights game!
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
The only way the Ravens win this game is if they run long slow drives that result in touchdowns and a few field goals. If they play the way they did last week against the Steelers, it will be a very ugly loss. Until John Harbaugh lays down the law to Cam Cameron and dictates the kind of game plan and play calling that results in what I said earlier, we will lose more and possibly all of the next 4 games.
For the life of me I do not understand why we never throw to the middle of the field like other teams do (NE, Washington, Packers, and just about every other team in the NFL that I watch). Every once in a while, I see a slant to Pitta or Bolden, but that is it. We go for the low percentage plays (bombs down the field) instead of just trying to get a first down. The Ravens will never have a productive offense that can carry our weak and battered defense if we can't convert 3rd downs, and stay on the field. We have the talent, lack the coaching.

My son is a student at FAU and I had a chance to watch Morris in college. He is the real deal.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
Welcome Skinsfan. RGIII was a great draft pick for you guys and your team is showing alot more promise than in years past. We are the, umm, 2012 Ravens...we can play good, bad and downright ugly so we'll just flip a coin to see what we get on Sunday. I will say historically the Ravens do not lose two games in a row so that is something to hang my hat on. Anyway, it should be a great game Sunday.

Ditto.
RG3 beat the SB champs last night and is the most exciting player
to come into the NFL since Vick with his passing and running.
Ravens D might not be able to contain him and the G-men had trouble
with the option play. With the way our D played Sun, we could have the same probs containing him.
It should be a good game. I had it for a win when the schedule
came out but I didn't know RG 3 would be this good and our
D this bad.
I'll be holding my breath.

Um... the Redskins beat the "Super Bowl" champs twice last year. I'm not seeing how that means much.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
You will when RG3 plays our D the way it is now.
Re: Hello from a Skins Fan
The Giants have an aggressive pass rushing defense so all the deception with the play action and options caused their DE's to slow down and second guess. Our defense, on the other hand, is not aggressive at all and I think that might ironically benefit us.

After watching the game Monday night and our replay lat night, I think your right.
The stay your lane (on he D line) and keep everyone in front of you could be just hat's needed to keep the big plays Washington needs (IMO) to score or win.

I don't know, the type of runner that Morris is scares the crap out of me. The way that he never goes down and always finds ways to make positive yardage seems all to familiar...
But on the flip side, their pass defense is trash, and just got worse over the past week. Not that I have a lot of confidence in Cam Cameron, but I think that we can tee off on it and keep pace. Should be one of those 2012 style games that we haven't seen here in months!
