Week 8: Redskins @ Steelers
Posted: Thu Oct 25, 2012 1:17 pm
Chris Cooley is back, and the local DC sports media reminds us once again why Wilbon was right about this not being a great sports town. Only in DC would they celebrate the re-signing of a tight end who hasn't been productive in about 3 years. I'm indifferent towards the signing, but clearly a lot of fans, or at least Cooley fans have the rose colored glasses on. His knees are shot.
ANYWAY, 2 more games before the bye week. The way i see it, I'd like the Skins to go at least 5-4 before the bye. I really thought they had a decent chance at beating the Giants, and now they travel to Pittsburgh. Steeler running backs are down and hurt, but the Skins run defense has been pretty good all year. Steelers have a solid receiver corps, Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, Emmnauel Sanders. Plus Big Ben has always been a handful to tackle down. I think the Redskins win it here.
