Redskins @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 10

[radar55]

RGIII will have his best game of the year which is pretty much the standard for every Q/B that goes against this defense. AP will keep it close but ONCE AGAIN......the defense will show its true colors and find a way to let a 4th quarter lead slip thru its fingers or should I say tackles.

Final score Wash 27 Queens 24

We just need to hope and pray that Jax and Tampa can find a way to win

[Just Me]

Redskins - 31
Vikings - 30

Redskins 42

RG3 will have more yards tonight then AD.
Ponder with 2 ints
27-11 Skins
The Skins aernt even that good. We are that bad. And y we I mean Management for this Roster, and Fraizer and Co. for being stubborn idiots.

Might as well make some side bets or set up a drinking game for tonight's game.

W/o Rudy, how many times will Ponder target John Freakin' Carlson? I'd say 6 times, he loves his TE check down, despite the suckle that is Carlson.

How many completions will be made on Robinson? Percentage? (I'll say 9, w/ 90%).

Other interesting tidbits to look for?

Josh Robinson takes one to the house.
Jarius wright scores one.
Ponder even throws a TD.
Vikes 21-0 at the half.
Then after Fraziers genius halftime adjustments the Redskins proceed to flog the living daylights out of the befuddled Vikes. Skins 40-21

How about number of missed sacks? I'd say probably 6.

Or number of 20+ yard rushes by RGIII (4).

Passing TDs to the left corner of the end zone? (1 as time expires for the skins to win)

You mean he is going to take a ball home with him?

Anyone remember our Thursday night game last year? Yeah I wish I could forget it too. (Bucs 36-17). For whatever reason we blow extra hard in prime time games so ....

Washington 33-17 ... RG3 has only 1 rushing TD in his last 17 games, 0 in his last 8, so that means he'll get at least 2 tonight. 18 games ago he scored twice against us (the last time he scored 2 TD in a game), including a back breaking 76 yarder in the 4th. AD will score his 1st 60+ yard TD since week 1. Washingtons defense is just as bad as ours, not quite as bad as Dallas, but pretty bad, so no excuses for Ponder.

Crazy fact, we play AFC teams at home more often than Washington lol. We've played Buffalo, Miami, Jacksonville, Oakland, and Tennessee 3 times each at the dome since 1999, Washington only once. It's only their 2nd trip to the dome since 1998.

1993 at WAS L 9-14
1998 vs WAS W 41-7
2004 at WAS L 18-21
2006 at WAS W 19-16
2007 vs WAS L 21-32
2010 at WAS W 17-13
2011 at WAS W 33-26
2012 at WAS L 26-38

The game in '93 was a win, not a loss.

Here are my over/under odds for Ponder tonite.

Passing TD's (1)
Running TD's (.5)
INT's (1.5)
Yards passing (220)
Lost fumbles (.5)
Overall QB rating (75)

Place your bets.

Passing TD's - even - he'll get his only TD in garbage time (might be a rush though)
Running TD's - under - (I think you have the passing/running TD's backward haha)
INT's - over - he'll throw at least 2
Yards passing - under - he did throw for 352 yards at Washington last year, although most came in garbage time
Lost fumbles - over - he'll fumble 1 on one of his panic runs without being touched
Overall QB rating - under - season low coming up, under 60

Place my bet? I bet people will still be making excuses for Ponder after yet another embarrassing performance on prime time.

You are correct sir. Nice catch!

[akvikingsfan]

I bet Freeman ends up playing at some point in this game due to an injury to Ponder.

[mossbutt]

You mean he is going to take a ball home with him?

Yep. It will be the first time he gets to actually hold a football.

[PurpleKoolaid]

I wish RG3 was on a team I liked

[S197]

Very cool national anthem.
