With WAS playing OAK, I think we will take over the bottom spot and officially become the worst defense in the NFL.

Originally posted by Yubaking View PostTheir only loss is a one point loss at 3-0 KC. They have good weapons on offense and we suck on defense. It's an ugly matchup. People greatly underestimate Romo. He is a very good QB. I think our offense versus their defense is a good battle, but they might have the advantage there too based upon our OL injuries.

I think the Chargers can and will win, but I can understand given our OL situation how you might think otherwise, even though Dallas is not a good team. But to think that Washington will also drop one to the almighty Raiders?!? When did Kennie Stabler, Howie Long, Fred Biletnikoff, Ray Guy, etc., come out of retirement?

Originally posted by Stinky Wizzleteats+X2 View PostI never said they were not tallented, but they have been tallented, like us, and have the same to show for it. Win one lose one results. If Sheli didnt toss six ints they are one and two. They made a Chargeresk effort to give the Giants the game and are lucky to be two and one as we are unlucky not to be 3-0.Adipose

:umno:
Because OAK's offense is not very good, I think WAS's defense will do better than it has in its first three games against PHI, GB and DET (currently the #2, #3, and #4 ranked offenses in the NFL). Right now WAS has surrendered 52 yards more than we have to earn the #32 ranking among defenses behind our #31 ranking.
Because DAL's offense can be explosive and we can't stop anything, I think we will arrive at what may be our season long destination as officially the worst defense in the NFL as early as this Sunday.
So, it is because DAL should get 53+ more yards of total offense than OAK (despite OAK being ranked #13 in total offense and DAL being ranked #15 in total offense) on Sunday, that my prediction is my prediction.
It has nothing to do with the Raiders winning, but I certainly think the Raiders have a much better chance of beating 0-3 WAS than we do of beating 2-1 DAL, notwithstanding what oddsmakers have to say about it. Honestly, I think the oddsmakers were drunk when they made the odds. This thread suggests that we opened as 1.5 point dogs, but the Vegas insiders website suggests that the game opened as a pick 'em game. Now the line is at Cowboys -2 and I would jump all over that if I were a betting sort (taking the Cowboys of course, which seems to be in line with what most bettors have actually done). To me, the OAK/WAS game in OAK is a pick 'em game, but I would never bet it as I have no faith in either team.
