We are going to get punched in the mouth Sunday Night
We just have to be sure we throw the FINAL punch(score)!
Period.
I see two hungry, desperate teams. Both, perhaps ahead of schedule.
ONE wants to cash in before the other.

This game will be decided by what defense does a better job of stopping the other offense from running the ball. Based on what we have seen over the last few weeks, I'd say the Redskins are better manned to get that job done, but stranger things have happened.

Neither defense is playing that great... I just hope ours can come up with a INT or a fumble!

That would be nice. It's the turnovers this season have us in the position we're in. We are -10 in turnover ratio, and the skins are +14. The skins are second in the league behind Chicago. |

Yep. This is what's killed us this season more than any other factor. We were handing out TOs like candy early, and we've been unable to take it away enough all year long. that 24 possession swing between the two franchises tells you everything you need to know about how the Sk*ns got where they're at. How we're in this division championship game is a bit more puzzling.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

I don't have much confidence in this defense, and the offense won't do squat until the game is on the line. This has been the case in almost literally every single game this year.

This is what concerns me. If the offense waits until the 4th to start attacking, it might be too late this time around. There is only so many times you can go to the well and expect the same results.
We need to hold them to FG's and for the offense to play aggressive from the first snap. If the running game is working, then stay with it to keep our def off the field, but we will need to score 7, not 3's to win this game.
Everyone has a plan, until they get hit.

They were up by 25 at halftime. They won by 7... should have won by 14.
In reality, they could have beaten us by 35 points.

Or we could have beat them, or should have, IF . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . |

I'm trying to wrap my head around your logic here.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.

Don't, I think there's something in the water supply up there.

Several weeks ago there were some proclaiming "we don't have a chance at the playoffs". And even now we have those that have been on a seven week doubtfest.
Can we please have a little enthusiasm and confidence here. This team has proven many wrong over the last month and a half. We took a very good Saints team to OT and dang near won it.
I have confidence we will win it.

Maybe, maybe not.
That very good Saints team will be watching the playoffs from home. |
