I look forward to watching the Commanders defense.

They have a very good secondary and I think they match up well with the Patriots passing attack.

You got it. I truly believe the Skins can hold them below 30 points. If the Skins can SOMEHOW manage at least a little bit of offense, they have a shot, but their OL is just torn up with injuries and they seem to be in conservative/don't make mistakes mode.

They have a QB that can throw it and a couple of receivers that seem to be able to catch it and a running back that up until this year was one of the best in the league...you'd THINK they'd at least TRY to open it up a bit on the Patriots. We'll see though.

I just want karma to come around on the Patriots. Listen, if we were in their shoes, maybe we'd be calling everyone whiners, but they run up the score, they play dirty, and they're confirmed cheaters. There is not a single thing to like about that team other than the fact they're tearing through the NFL right now.

Karma will get them and I, for one, hope the Commanders give them a little taste of it.

We get to watch the Skins play at New England. They are lucky they pulled it out today.

This will be hilarious. They BARELY beat both the Cardinals and the Dolphins. Therefore, they could easily be 2-4. The Patriots made the Dolphins look like a women's little league team today. I see this turning out really well for the Skins indeed. AT New England nonetheless. "Getcha popcorn ready". Yeah, I don't really care for the Patriots, but I will enjoy every second of this game.

The best possible outcome would be if the Skins just quit the NFL after this one is over.

I think it'll be 84-3 Patriots

Brady passes for 12 touchdown passes. 11 To Randy Moss and one to himself.
He's that good.

What did you just say? ...... How dare you even think of rooting for the Commanders.

;)

Hey, I might root for them when the play the Giants again, as far as I'm concerned the G-men are a much bigger threat to the Cowboys' quest to win the NFC East title than the Skins are...

You got that right. If the Skins had lost today, I might not even mind their winning next week.

That's just how much I want the Pats to lose.

I want the Pats to go undefeated in the regular season, make the Super Bowl, and lose the game to the Cowboys...

The Cards put up 280 net yards passing on the Skins, with a banged-up QB, and their pass offense is nowhere NEAR as dangerous as the Pats' is... and you seriously overrate the Skins' pass defense, which is currently ranked 8th in passing yards per game allowed, 8th in completion percentage allowed... they are a good defense, but hardly a great pass defense, and they will be facing the most potent passing offense I've seen in many, many years...

Even if you're right, which I SERIOUSLY doubt, the Skins aren't about to score as many as 20 on the Pats... not with the state of their offensive line...

They have a QB that can throw it

Uhhh, no, they don't... Campbell just put up all of 96 yards passing against the Cards, a pass defense that was giving up an average of over 212 yards per game going into yesterday... Jason's quarterback rating now stands at 78.5 for the season, 77.4 for his career... his rating this year puts him 25th in the league in that category... those are NOT good numbers...

Beyond that, he's averaging 190.6 yards per game passing, 183.1 net yards (after sacks)... which is why the Skins currently have the 26th ranked passing offense in the NFL...

and a couple of receivers that seem to be able to catch it

Uhhh, their WRs are GARBAGE... Antwan Randle-El ranks tied for 34th in receptions, with 23, 22nd in yards receiving per game, at 70.3... and he's their BEST receiver this year... their second best is Santana Moss, their supposed lead receiver, who ranks tied for 69th in the league with 14 receptions, 55th in yards per game, with 41.4...

After those two, Keenan McCardell has 4 catches, James Thrash has 3...

I don't have the first clue why you, or ANYBODY, would be scared of the Skins' passing attack, which is all but nonexistent...

and a running back that up until this year was one of the best in the league...

NO running back would find success running behind that offensive line...

I just want karma to come around on the Patriots.

To the point where you'd root against them even if their winning was good for the Cowboys?? That's what you'll be doing if you root for the Skins against the Pats... me, I want the Boys to win the NFC East, and secure home field advantage throughout the playoffs, and the Skins losing next week helps them get closer to that goal...

Some of y'all really have your priorities out of whack...

Karma will get them and I, for one, hope the Commanders give them a little taste of it.

That's rather like cutting off your own nose, to spite your face... I personally want to see the Skins CRUSHED, I mean completely demoralized after that game...

I don't see anyway the Redstinks win this game. Their offense is putrid. I think they had like 160 total yards today and the only game they've been decent in is the Detroit game. I wouldn't be surprised if they get shut out and not that NE's D is that great I just think their O is that bad.

The Skins are a team that could easily be 2-4. They've played ball sweater games like where they had to beat Miami in OT and should've lost today against the frickin' cards. Their record is not a reflection of the quality of the team.

They're playing NE in Foxboro and the Pats are gonna roll them up like a cheap carpet.

but what if the Pats look past the Skins and onto the Colts game, and then get bit in the butt by those darn Racial Slurs?

Washington only managed to put up 160 total yards against the freaking Cardinals in the Skin's home stadium. Arizona outgained them by over 200 yards yesterday. And to beat it all, some of their fans on ES still think they're going to beat N.E. on the road. Delusional is all I can say. They're going to get demolished.

The good thing about delusional Skins fans is watching their bitterness when reality finally jumps up and bites them on their collective backsides... it happens every year, and it's always worth the price of admission...

The Skins are never as great as those fans claim they are when they're gripped by the delusions, but they're also never as bad as those same fans claim they are when the truth is finally clear to them... it's a roller-coaster ride, and always good for a laugh or two or three...

Is that a first half or final score? :D
