Friday Forecast 2023 Game Two, Reality Check!

[Stymietee]

Opening game jitters aside, every team in the league will make adjustments based on what they saw, liked, and disliked in the opener. Make no mistake, game two of every season puts the spotlight on the coach’s ability to course correct before the season is lost. Ron Rivera and Sean Payton are both dealing with QB decisions that should become a lot clearer after all of the dust has settled in this one. For Payton it's whether or not Russell Wilson can become anything resembling the player that he was early on in Seattle. For Rivera, who has pushed all of his chips on yet another QB in Sam Howell after abject failures betting on Carson Wentz and Ryan Fitzpatrick (the latter from a career-ending injury) will be looking for Howell to prove against a pretty good defense, that he has more in him than previously displayed (growth) or if he is no more than a bigger, stronger version of the now departed Taylor Heinicke.

Here's how the teams match up...



Here are the questions...

1. Who wins this game?

2. Final score?

3. Player(s) of the game?

4. Memorial moment, event, or play, that will have everyone talking on Sunday night and Monday mornings?

5. At the game's end which Head Coach will be buoyed by their QB's performance? (@dad please post this question in your post-game thread)

I'm interested in your prediction Sty because you were spot on last week if I remember correctly.

 

[gkekoa]

21-17 Skins.

SH with three TD passes, no turnovers, to include a 75 yarder to Dotson.

I haven't offered a game or seasonal prediction this year because two years running they have put some people on edge.

Tell you what, I'll think about it tonight and try to convince myself that it's worth it. If so, I'll post both a game and seasonal prediction sometime tomorrow evening.

Thanks! Prior to seeing and responding to your post, I responded to @PDay8810, and could have combined them. Apologies!

I thought you had us by one score last week?

 

[kbso83432]

Went back and checked. You had the game 27-24 but you didn't pick a winner.

I'm superstitious when it comes to the Skins, but in my head I had us bowling Arizona out. That's why I'm curious as to your take on the game. No pressure. Lol

 

[skinsdad62]

I am not convinced we are a good team yet . I think the broncos win 24-21 and we will pick apart a guy with 3 career starts . Right now I see baker mayfield in SH and trending upward

 

[deanpet21]

I think we win 24-14. Robinson has a good game on the ground, and we only have one turnover for the game.

 

[redskinsfan1963]

denver has a decent secondary so i dont see sh with 3 td passes but 1 maybe.unless eb has a trick to winning in denver i see washington losing again in denver.we have,nt won there since kent graham did it in 2000.

 

[skinz2winz]

Howell to make history with a passing TD and running TD in first 3 starts

 

[Stymietee]

I thought you had us by one score last week?

I did, in fact, it was a 3-point difference!

 

[gkekoa]

I will play homer. Skins win 24-20.

We have a good team game with the Allen throwing two picks…Forbes returning one for a score.
