An Old school thread for an old school rivalry. :smile:

So reports are it's damp and raw but no monsoon as they thought would be the case earlier in the week.

As a kid, when the Skins would be playing and the conditions were wet and sloppy, my Dad would always say: "We're good mudders. The odds just flipped in our favor."

Hoping for some of that old school logic/magic today.

Get Alfred going today and sprinkle in Jones on occasion.

Looking forward to seeing more Crowder and hopefully Ross on offense today.

And when we do pass, how about calling some things that get Kirk in a rythmn?

Barry needs to dial up some more pressure today...especially since Bradford has the mobility of Drew Bledsoe,not in his prime, but if he played today. Let's win the turnover battle for a change.

Hoping for a good game today! Thinking positive! :pint:

Your thoughts??

EDIT:

Dreams can come true...

let the big uglies control the line. Its not gonna be as wet, but looks like we could get windy at times. Control the line on both sides of the ball, old school, gridiron type football. I think the x-factor is gonna be the screen game. Whoever can execute it on offense, and defend it on defense will have the edge.
 
I don't know why, but I feel good about today. I think Matt Jones breaks a couple of long ones.

This is an 'opportunity' game for us, with a winnable home contest and with the Giants and Cowboys having tough road matchups against the Bills and the Saints respectively. Big game and we need to take advantage of it.

Time for Ryan's legs to be dynamic, two sacks
Pot Roast rested enough to do something special inside





:paranoid:
Dunbar gets first NFL INT
 
we could easily be seeing the infancy of our WR corps, and it could be developing for a long long time.
 
We don't need to be fancy to start this game.

If you say you want to be a physical, running football team: own up to it. Be who you are.

No gimmicks or fancy trick plays to start this game. Line up and punch them in the mouth.

Save your "shots" for after you've softened them up.
 
I thought I saw on NFL network about hr ago they said rain muddy loose sod type game. Anyway, my first thought was it plays in our favor and gives us an advantage. Then I realized, just who has the advantage in a sloppy mudder rainy game? The answer of course, is the defense. so really I don't think we can expect Jones and Morris to pile up the yards. Just move the chains get to the red zone. This is the type of game where you will be glad we got this field goal kicker.
