It's been a long, long time since I have counted down the days until a Skins game. I had no expectations going into the Tampa playoff game. Kinda like impending doom.

It's been a long time since you've had that feeling around Wednesday or Thursday where you just can't wait for Sunday to get here.

If they can go up there and pull out a win, I imagine I will have that feeling around mid week going into the Eagles game, especially if Kirk can do us a solid on Monday night.

There is definitely excitement. We should be able to get to GOff.

I just have a feeling we are gonna get torched on defense. I hope I'm wrong, but it might take 35 or 38 with no more than one turnover to get a win.

It would be impressive if Detroit puts up back to back 30 point games. We have more talent on offense. We should be the ones putting up 30 on Sunday.

It's not so much te Lions offense, but the way our defense has looked. Lawrence left a lot on the field Sunday.

Hockenson, Swift, St. Brown

Maybe we get up early and force Goff to have to beat us. That's best case scenario imo

We had alot of pressures on Lawarence last week, he just got out of a lot of sacks b/c of his athletic ability. Goff is a statue. We should get more sacks, plus their starting center is out. Swift is banged up. Not afraid of their WR core. We should win the turnover battle and win the game.

I'm not sure if Williams is 100%. Their center being out is huge but they have solid tackles. I stated before the season started that Jax and Detroit were not layups.

Had to come back to beat Jax and presently we are road dogs vs. Detroit. If I'm Ron I am hammering home the fact the the Lions haven't been favored in over a year.

I am hearing that their top corner Oruwariye is probably not going to play. That would be huge. Can't wait to see what Cole Turner looks like.

It should be a tough game but in fairness if we didn't turn over the ball to the Jags three times, we should of blew them out.

If the Commanders didnt turn the ball over 3x, they likely blow the jags out.

They won despite going -2 in turnovers, which is rare for them especially, but for the league in general as well.

I dont know what the Lions will bring, but on paper the Commanders should win, provided they balance their attack, and dont turn it over.
