No matter the size of a wounded animal if cornered and any fight in it you will get all you can handle. When faced with starting a season 2-0 you will see a real team dig much deeper , especially at home. This will not be as easy a game as it seems most think it will be. Don't want to do anything but temper your attitudes going in to this game where Everyone has us favored when that Never happens.
Go rewatch last weeks game and tell me how totally dominant we were ALL through the game. This skins team is tough on a very,very different "D" that we beat with an 18 point quarter last season before we folded up for the year. If the skins qb is talented in getting rid of the ball in 2.5 seconds all game as some skins fans claim is his biggest claim to fame. I saw Mich. ST. win the big 10 and their bowl game with this qb on hail mary passes. He can be one very lucky guy. I remember his senior season well. He had some really good college games.
I know our OL will be challenged and we don't know how Masons Hammy will hold up when the Bullets are flying on a bad field to cut on from a guy who loves to plant his foot before making his sharp cut. Benny seemed to make the spin in just the right direction out of tackles on 3rd down. Our run game is still suspect. Jump me if you just watched the shehag game again.
We took it very easy this week at practice and I'm glad we get our starting CB back. The panthers were'nt as lucky as Luke Kueuchly is still out for tomorrows game after his concussion. The offensive line for the skins has one rookie and he was the 1st OL taken in the draft surrounded by many aged veterans. On the other hand our OL MUST continue the climb upward in playing a different type "D" we struggled against last season.
I think we should expect a very tight game that may open up in the second half if we just keep chopping wood every possesion. We did'nt have an Int. last week but we had fumbles. Will the refs treat us as bad? I think the first half will be two heavy weights feeling each other out with lots of punts unless Cignetti continues to impress us with his positive adjustments and the pure grit Nick Foles showed specifically on 3RD downs.
We are a better "DL" than the phins came into that game with Suh and got no push. We know we will get push but will it get to Cousins on time? They will have focused on early releases all week. The cutback lanes were open last year against the skins and we need the gang tackling we had last week. Will we be as high not at home and not against a major rival we focused on since the day the schedule came out? Can we get that high again on the road?
I predict we might pull away very late if we come out and swap blows and we must keep hitting them in the mouth. MY main point. THEY WILL GET DESPERATE AT SOME POINT IN THE GAME. We will have to take the very best their team has inside them NOT TO GO 2-0 to start the season. They nor anyone will do anything to avoid that. DO WE WANT 2-0 worse than they don't want to be 0-2? So the high risk unnatural play will take place at sometime in this game from them.
The skins dropped 2-3 right in thier hand interceptions and actually led 10 to 0 agaist the phins. They allowed a pnt return and 10 points late in a VERY HARD fought game with Cousins 21-31. I like high energy but not overconfidence. Just prepare to possibly see a very close fought game. I think we get a break and have a good 4th quarter if we escape the Injuries. Really hope we bring a real good scheme on O & D. The skins are gonna fight us HARDER than they did the phins. We will see desperation and we must hold solid. We had a great week of celebration. Its been GREAT. Now lets get ready to put a wounded animal out of its MISERY. GO RAMS!!! NO INJURIES!!!
