GL on washington - I had convinced myself they would be the play despite the shortcomings (brunells hammy, arrington out, penetrable defensive backfield vs. vinny testes who has been 'penetrating well' lately) BUT
but I think if it comes to a shootout with vinny getting upwards of 200 yards I fear that the skins wont be able to keep up...
what do you think?

jay, based on the expected weather conditions tonight , i see this as anything but a shootout ............i think it will come down to a battle of running backs and Portis vs. George favors Washington here .............add to that, Vinny being the t/o machine that he his and his lack of mobility vs a decent Wash. front(even w/o Arrington) plus the fact that Brunell not 100%,leads me to belive a HEAVY dose of Portis is the game plan tonight ..............if Wash. can grab the early lead and force Vinny to put it up , t/o's will follow ..........that being said , this was almost a no play for me , as the matchups , although slightly favoring Wash., are very close ............(not to mention the Parcells factor )
Considering the weather am also considering a small play on the under as well .........gl whichever way you choose to go ................

I think I understand where you are coming from but with the key injuries that the skins have on defense i still cannot say definitively that the cowboys would not be able to at least match what the skins can put up in terms of a rushing/short passing game. I think their running games both match up pretty even but any way you slice it (rain and all) there is no way to possibly make the case that the skins could outplay vinny and co in the air department. That is to say - even if its all running all day - I CAN say with 100% confidence that the scorecard will read at the end of the game a better performance in the passing game for dallas than the skins.
It might only be a few short passes all game long - but my contention is that whatever it may be will be more than what washington can put together - and assuming I am right about it being a wash on the running game side of things (with the injury softened washington D [and overall weak secondary of the skins]) then I think its safe to go with the road team. Just food for thought - I could be wrong.
