[PennSkinsFan]

@ Philadelphia
Tampa Bay
@ Buffalo

[dj_stouty]

I voted two...but now that I think about it...I think we will win one.

I think we can "steal" a win from either Philly or Buffalo, but we will lose to Tampa Bay.

I know we can beat Philly and/or Buffalo, but I still think we can beat Tampa. If we play tough defense, we can out run their's on offense.

[Green-Is-Good]

I'm tired of being modest! especially when I know Bills fans who think they will win the superbowl. All three games!!

[DallasSux]

i voted two i know we can beat the eagles i have a feeling we could beat the bucs too. we might have a tough time against the bills.

[PennSkinsFan]

I think we will beat Philly and Buffalo.

[Green-Is-Good]

We can beat TB. I think that IF we lose to any one of these three teams, it will be the Eagles.

[rskinsfan10]

I voted two with the wins coming against the Eagles and Bucs.

[truant]

We could win/lose any and all of these games. I think we'll take 2 of 3. I'll say that we'll beat Tampa and i'm not sure whether it'll be philly or buffalo. I'll say we beat the Bills but we drop another divisional game.

[Emmanouel8]

We'll probably lose to philly but end up beating the bills and bucs.

[skinswin'emALL]

What I love is............we CAN win all of them. It's great having a team that you know can compete with the best.

[jsarno]

I think we CAN beat all three, but we'll lose to one of them. More than likely Tampa...but we can still beat Tampa.

I have no doubt we can beat Buffalo. We are better than they are, and I seem to be the only person that believes they are over rated.

I agree 100%. We can compete with any team in the league. Its been a long time since we are able to boast that!

However, I'm not sure how long we can compete with a defense like Tampa Bay's. You thought Atlanta could blitz? Wait till you see Sapp, Rice and Brooks all gunning for Ramsey.

[BigCountry]

Tampa rarely blitzes, they get all that pressure with their front 4 and send everyone back to cover. That's why you line up double tight and ram it down their throats.

Ditto

[Skinzaholic]

Im most worried about Philly... they are mad... and hungry... and that makes for a tough game in their house.

I voted One... but I hope Im being too cautious.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

Gotta go with two. I think we can definitely beat the Eagles next week. Not only that, but we should beat the Eagles with their banged-up team. As for Buffalo, well, Philly won there, and there are cries of "one dimensional" all over the place. That entire game rests on stopping Travis Henry. If we can do it, we've got an excellent chance.

Tampa was the one game on the schedule I looked at and thought "No, we can't do it, not yet." I still think that. I could be optimistic about playing just about any other team in the league, but that defense.... I know I'm definitely not the only one it scares.

[Chief Seeway]

I voted one. I think the only way we beat the bucs is to run Betts until he passes out, then hit him with the smelling salts and run him until he passes out again. Oh, and at least one defensive TD would help also.

[Skins57]

I said 2 and I think Philly is scariest of the 3 for me. The are a division team and we have not faired well in division lately. We own the TB and Buff is not what everyone thought they were.

[higgybaby]

I voted all 3, because it is possible. more realistically 2 losing to our divisional rival, sadly.

[Ford]

I think we will beat Tampa and Philly. Buffalo worries me a bit. I think alot of it will be on Ramsey to put some points on the board because I think Bledsoe will be able to pick apart our D some. I think the D still has a lot to prove this year and they're not really playing to where they should be yet. They're strong when they need to be on 3rd downs and in the red zone, but I'd like to see them play better between the 20s.

[Patrick]

Philly will be a war. For us, I don't see our mistakes getting corrected like we want but we'll improve in some areas. 21 - 20 SKINS

Tampa is were we will play our best game of the year. This to will be a hard fought game but we'll be hitting on all cylinders. 27-17 SKINS

Buffalo will be similar to the NYG game except this time we win in OT 30-27 SKINS.

I guess I'm thinking 3 wins - THEY CAN DO IT!!!!

[GolfFreak]

I voted 2 - think Philly and Buffalo are beat-able. That's not to say I don't thing we can beat TB. I think we matchup well with all three of these teams. I'm glad Philly got it's first win last week and won't be looking for it against us. I'm glad they are a little banged up in the secondary so our new passing game can get back to buisness.

I also think we matchup well w/ Buffalo: Champ can cover Moulds, and our LBs can punish Henry.

The Bucs will be tough even though I think our Defense will play well I think their D matches up with our O.

It'll be an interesting three weeks.

[PennSkinsFan]

This team really has not even played to the level uit can, not even once. Just think what this team can do with extra protection, limiting penalties that stall drives, and just plain play smart football. If both Taylor and Vincent are out this week, man, this shodul be a win, we should be able to throw the ball. They have to keep working witht he RBs and Fbs on picking up blitzes and we will be fine. Little dumps to guys like Trung and Morton can kill blitz packages.

[hail2skins]

I hope it's two but I voted one and that against the Iggles. We have the Bucs at home but we can't play the way we've been playing and expect to beat them.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

We own TB? I don't recall this....

[AZ#1SkinsFan]

W vs Philly
L vs Tampa
W vs Bills

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

accept for the 99 playoff game, we have beaten or been close in games against tampa.

as for the poll, i choose 2 just because those are 3 really tough games and i think they will take its toll on the team. im worried about the blitzing of the eagles D, buffalo's offense and tampa's defense. we matchup well against the bills and eagles imo, but you've all seen what tampa's defense does to opposing QBs. just ask mcnabb. we can definitely shut down tampa's offense, but the running game will have to be extremely effective in order to take some pressure off of ramsey. in order of difficulty...

1. tampa bay (the offense is not very explosive but the D is scary)
2. buffalo (they cant run and the 2ndary can shut down their O)
3. philly (a tough divisional game but they are very beat up)

[Seebs]

One would be good, two is my choice, three is possible.

[JoeDaSchmoe]

If we won all three I would give serious consideration to pulling a Jon Gruden and running through the streets of DC naked waving a Redskins flag. :D

[dj_stouty]

Think about it, folks...

If we only win one of the three, then we are still 4-3 at the break. When the schedule came out last spring, there were not many of us who thought we could come out above .500 after the bye week.

THAT WAY...we can prepare and successfully beat down on Dallas to go 5-3. Sounds like a plan to me...
