I Would Not Be Shocked if Jaguars Beat the Redskins This Week

[slacker00]

I went ahead and added Jaguars +220 ML

Yikes. Please share why you like the Jags, I didn't see much from them in the loss @PHI except a few isolated plays.

Did you even read this thread? I think both teams are about equally bad. Even giving Skins a slight edge for being home, +220 seems like +EV to me.

I'm not quite as down on WAS. As long as RGIII doesn't have 2 broken legs, they'll figure out a way to use him.

But they are NOT using him right, forcing him to be a pocket passer that he is not. And the loss of Reed is huge, they have nobody else close to the stretch TE that he is, not to mention RG3 likes throwing to him.

Reed isn't that much of an impact, they've got receivers that can stretch the field. As for RGIII, I expect adjustments.

Redskins easy...

Good spot for them.

Reed is his favorite target.

Based on what? The only difference between these teams this year from last year is that the Jags have a better defense, especially the front seven. That wasn't evident vs. the Philly fast-break offense, but should become apparent vs. the Deadskins.

[pavyracer]

Why would you be shocked LT? Redskins only won 3 games last year.

[Dollars2Donuts]

I may not bet the game, but the edge (imo) definitely goes to the Jags. The Redskins are a mess in too many ways to mention, and that is without even into doing a deep dive into the stats, which also indicate the the Jags can easily be in this game.

And yet it seems others disagree.

@HOU Garcon had 10 catches, DeSean had 8, Paul had 4, 5 others had a catch or more. RGIII has plenty of targets.

It's too bad that he outperformed his abilities in year #1. I laughed when people said that RG3 had a similar or higher ceiling to Andrew Luck that whole year. The truth is that players with RG3's abilities do not translate into long term solutions for their teams.....add to it the injury issues and the way he was mishandled last year and it all equals a recipe for disaster.

IN 3 years (or less) RG3 will not be in the NFL (and I said he had a shelf life of 5 years after his first year.....it is still true).

Not that that all means that they will not win this week.....you never know anything for sure in this league.

[STAX]

Jacksonville is a better team than Washington, I wouldnt be surprised if they won either

Yeah because Reed was injured after his first catch. He is RG3's security blanket.

[Da Manster!]

If the Redskins are smart, they will start Kirk Cousins ASAP....then you will see a totally different team!.......unfortunately for us skins fans, that probably won't happen any time soon barring injury!...

its bc you have a dipshit owner who is maiking things worse by being stubborn... Snyder just isnt ready to admit he made a grave mistake in trading the franchise's future for RG3... The thing is, its not RG3's fault. Shanny ruined him in his rookie year. Once RG3 gets benched (and he will get benched probably later rather than sooner), RG3 will come out in the media slamming Shanny for ruining him. Its just his style

Based on the line, line movement, hfa, last week, public dog, etc.

Line has gone DOWN, opened +6.5. HFA has meant nothing to Skins since last year. I don't get what you mean by "last week", that seems like a wash as neither team looked good.

[k13]

When it dropped to -5.5 it got bet up to -6...some resistance...

Anyway, they might cover but don't think they win, just the way I see it.

[pavyracer]

Wow 18 people think Redskins have a chance to cover a TD. Speechless!

[k13]

Not even a chance..

[blankoblanco]

Yeah... that's why you don't put your money on this team. Tried to warn you guys. The Jags offense/offensive line situation is a trainwreck. I watch all this crappy teams' games so you don't have to

Kirk Cousins getting to play might have screwed up the under (which I was also on) but I doubt it made a difference in Skins covering
