My two favorite teams clash in the preseason. Only one team has a place on my skin though.

Questions??

Who is hte better young QB? Rot or Cam? I don't think it is cut and dry as most people would think. Yest Rot has the resume and title, but was he responsible for that win or just along for the ride?

Can the Steelers compete with out Cowher? Does the talk about Cowher maybe being the successor here anger the players of the Steelers?

Can are OL come to play?

If we win does it mean a god damn thing?

Will I make kick-off at the bar?

[W. Unseld]

On the one hand, there are no conflicts at all for me in the NFL or all of football, it's skins first, second, third etc. On the other hand I have not permanently tattoe'd them to my skin, so it's a toss up on who the bigger fan is.

[Scabs304]

There is no true conflicts. I will root for the Skins the whole game, but specially since it's a preseason game I won't feel so bad if the Skins are beat by the Steelers. So instead of being depressed for a whole day I'll only feel a little sad .

[Wizards2Lottery]

I just hope our first team can put up some points. Al Saunders is begining to remind of Steve Spurrier. All flash, no substance.

[Scabs304]

Yah I'm predicting another low scoring game. Going with a final of 14 to 10 Redskins win.

[W. Unseld]

I think the Steelers are going to have a bounce back year. Scabs, what do you think of Big Ben's fantasy prospects?

[Scabs304]

I think Ben's fantasy prospects are probally higher this year than last. Holmes and Miller should bei better players this year so that should give him better options down the field. Also Parker, Barlow, Haynes are all highly capable of catching it out of the backfield. I believe we won't see him on the FA list this year, but still not a solid number 1 starter in most fantasy leagues pretty much the same as Cambell.

Actually if you want a late round flyer on a WR Holmes would be a good option he could have a Burress esque year beside Ward.

I love the skins, but I have a feeling we're gonna get leveled by the Steelers. They'd bette rpull Campbell early or our O-Line is gonna get him hurt!

[Scabs304]

Will probally miss the kickoff of tonights game but will try to get to watch the rest of it at the bar. I feel that Cambell is going to light up the CB's with Moss and El early.

First off, thanks to Scabs for starting this thread!

I have the same fear re: the O-line. It's bad enough that Samuels and Jansen are overrated but now that we've got rookies and career backups masquerading as starters we're in big trouble. I think the offensive line will be a weak spot all year, even when everyone is healthy, and it's gonna be the downfall of the offense.

[Wizards2Lottery]

Watching the Titans front four destroy the Patriots offensive line last night gave me this much > < hope for tonights game

[Rafael122]

Seeing as how I didn't see the first game, I will be looking closely at the offensive line and how they perform. I still think Samuels is one of the best left tackles in the league (why some here think he's overrated is beyond me but he's been an anchor for this line ever since he got drafted).

Will also look to see how Campbell performs. Should be an interesting game. I'm assuming that the starters will play at least one quarter?

The starters played the entire first half last week. Should be around the same this week I think.

[Scabs304]

I missed kickoff so I'm not watching the game. Last day on the job at my **** job and work with a newbie so had no chance of making the game . Oh welp Skins win Skins win.

**** BITCH. THERE GOES OUR SEASON. FIRST CARSON PALMER AND NOW JASON.

**** PITTSBURGH AND THIS CHEAP ASS DEFENSE.

[LyricalRico]

FIRST CARSON PALMER AND NOW JASON.

Pittsburgh strikes again.

Well, looks like we'll be taking the #8 car for a spin again this season. Yeah - it's over.

Dude I'm so depresed its not even funny. Jasons season is done. Were ****. I hate life. I hate football. I'm to depressed to talk right now.

[Rafael122]

Bruised knee is the early report. Let's just hope it's nothing worse than that. He was playing so well to start off.

Collins TD pass to Lloyd. 7-0 Skins.

[Wizards2Lottery]

Go for Bens knees. Go for Willies nuts. Im **** pissed right now.

Thats good news. Jammal Brown had a bad looking knee injury in TC and thats what it turned out to be. He's only expected to be out a few more days.
