Game Time Forecast Rain

[hogs86]

Looks like the redskins will be playing in the rain this weekend. I am looking forward to it. Last year we beat the giants in the rain and lets hope we do the same this Sunday.

this might be a real ugly football game. I guess I'll try to remember my rain poncho (sp?). my wife wont like this news, I might have to find someone else to take to the game :P

Might suck for the fans, but the Giants' offense will have a harder time in the mud, hopefully. I'd be worried about our offense too, except that we don't have one.

exactly.. the only thing i worry about in that case is turnovers... get the ball to kelly, also.. that big body is just what we need..

Miserable. Unless we win, I predict a horrible day. Luckily I bought a whole rain suit last year but it's black. I do have my circa-1975 poncho though that rocks.

given how poorly our offense scores, anything that lowers the giant ability to move the ball and score plays to our advantage.. were we the last team to beat them last year ?? if so, it was the same wretched type of weather...

No, New England beat them in week 17

And this is definitely to the Skins advantage. Eli is turnover prone, and we are 2nd best in the league in least turnovers committed. And we're the 3rd ranked rushing offence.

The Giants arent going 15-1 so they have to lose some time. And what better time than now?

I'm not worried about Dallas
Basically, their three game winning streak was bullying on two bad teams (Niners and Seahawks). Their offense sucks just as bad as their defence, too. Against a good defence like the Redskins, they only scored 14 points. If our offense was not so anemic, they would not even have a three game winning streak.

And they face a string of tough games now: Giants, Eagles, Ravens, Steelers. This on top of the fact that they always suck in December, and you have a perfect storm of Dallas choking. I see them going 1-3 or 2-2 in this four game stretch, which means we just need to win 3 of our last 5 (and our schedule is much more favorable).

The Fox early game in the rain. My local Fox affiliate switched to this game from the New Orleans-Tampa Bay game. I'm very pleased.

[redskin_rich]

Awesome! The only thing better than being cold is to also be wet.

right.. dallas is under .500 for december going back several years.. saw that graphic in the game against seattle

[BIGREDSKINSFAN1963]

i would say that this makes it more possible that london fletcher will not play!

[NamVet4]

Tough weather for both Teams.... worse for Eli! We need positive on the TO's and IMHO the WCO works better in the rain and mud as opposed to the Gints trying to pound the ball!

[skinsfan36]

sloppy=advantage skins. why?you cant rush the passer and since we cant anywhere this will slow down the giants advantage us
