Absolutely...the media has really aggravated me this week. All over the country, the Skins have been getting bashed because of their supposedly abysmal offense. These are the same people who have probably only watched one or two Skins games all year, including last week's offensive abomination against the Bucs.
Fact is, last week was more about how good the Bucs' D is than how bad our offense is. Don't get me wrong, the offense isn't GREAT by any stretch of the imagination. But they aren't nearly as bad as they showed last week. They play much better against mediocre defenses, and Seattle's D defintely falls under that category.
Quwest Field is gonna be a bitch to play in; they have a great crowd that is gonna be rocking tomorrow. But the Skins should be able to move the ball and be productive offensively. If the D can limit Alexander, the Skins have a great shot to pull an upset. They kept him under wraps in the first game at Fedex this year(then tried to give Seattle the game late), and will need to do the same tomorrow. The key will be time of possession. At Fedex, we limited the Seahawks offense to just under 24 minutes on the field. It'll probably take the same type of effort to win tomorrow.
Also, everyone's making a big fuss about Portis being banged up...but don't sleep on Ladell Betts. All the Iowa posters on here should know how good this guy he. He could start for quite a few other teams in the league. Very underrated. Skins running game doesn't lose a step when he comes in.
But yes, I think the Skins will hit double-digits tomorrow. Close to or above 20.
Carolina at Chicago
Looking for Carolina to get sweet revenge on Chicago for the loss earlier this season when Steve Smith had 10 catches for 150 yards, but no TD's due to erratic play by Jake Delhomme. What better way to serve revenge for an earlier loss than to beat a team in its own backyard to kick them out of the playoffs. This is only Rex Grossmans what 10th game as a starting QB or something and Carolina looks like they tightened up that defense at the right time. Have a play on Panthers +3 and ML +131 that was booked by pinnaclesports ealier this week. Bring!

I most look forward to the Pitt vs Indy match-up as the Colts have not played a meaningful game in Almost a month. Time off is good, but in this case that might be toooooooo long.
Steelers going to bring A game for sure, who knows about the Colts an ALL that stuff that is around them. The might ge beat SU here!

I think both AFC games will be better than the NFC games.
Have really high expectations for the Pats vs Broncos game, should be a riot.
Panthers vs Chicago won't be the contest people think it would be, IMO.
Indy vs Pitts & Hawks vs Skins would either be absolutely great, or absolutely awful.
