12 vs. 11 - Take the Skins

How quickly we forget. You don't bet against a team on a mission. Since Sean Taylor's death, the Redskins are 4-1 with wins over the Bears, Giants, Vikings, and Cowboys. The 1 loss (to the Bills) can be solely blamed on 2 people, neither of whom were actually on the field. The obvious person that comes to mind is Joe Gibbs, who called two consecutive timeouts. It's pretty tough to understand the rules these days, especially for a person eligible for social security, medicare, a senior citizen movie ticket, etc. so I guess we will let it slide? Also, it was against the Bills - so you had the Kevin Everett factor.

While the Skins still have Gibbs, they don't need to play against another "feel-good" story. No one cares about the Seahawks. They play in the worst division in the worst conference. While the Seahawks may have the loudest stadium in all of football, the 12th man cannot stop the 12th player. While the safety on the gun may not have been in position, you know that Sean Taylor will be in his proper position - inside the hearts of every Redskins player today against Seattle. TAKE the SKINS GETTING 3.
