FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2013 DVOA Projections

They have the Skins winning the East with 70+% chance of making the playoffs.

Yeah, some reporters and analysts have us in last in our Division lol, no one thinks we have a chance in the NFC to make the SB ....

Eagles are favored to win Monday night also...lol

Someone has you guys last? That's idiotic. I'm saying Skins 1st or 2nd, no way they are worse than Eagles even if something happens to RG3 or another key player or two.

I was actually hoping the entire Sports media World would come out and start talking how great the Rams were going to do with the #1 over all pick they would be getting from the Skins in next years draft. But apparently they dont want to give this team too any bulletin board clippings.

 

[JDM]

I have friends who are Eagles fans who think they're winning against you guys. I'll be surprised if you don't blow them out.

I got to be honest, I'm worried about this game. Vick is always dangerous and has eaten us up before. This offense he now runs may suit him to a tee. McCoy is the real deal. Jackson is the type of receiver that can give a rookie S a rough welcome to the NFL. This could very well be a shoot out. My heart says the Skins should win easily, my head says its not going to be a cake walk.

 

[JDM]

As an uninvolved bystander, if the Eagles make this game competitive I would see room for concern for your skins. They have a weapon or two but they are still a very bad team IMO.

 

[j_y19]

How do we really know? They have a new offense that was basically hidden all preseason. Vick can be dangerous. They get to very good starters back on the OL. They will now get the ball in McCoy's hands much more. That is not good for their opponents.

I'm not concerned at all about us scoring. I'm concerned about them scoring. I'd feel much better about playing them 3 or 4 games in once we had some tape to prepare better. Its just the unknown that worries me.

 

[JDM]

Nothing about the eagles scares me. I would love to swap week one opponents with you guys.

 

[Warpath]

With as bad as their defense is going to be, they'll need their offense to keep up.

If their offense has any 3 and outs or doesn't sustain drives it's going to get ugly for them all season.

Their offense is gonna be insanely good. Vick, McCoy, good healthy O-line. Only weakness is run defense. Iggles and Cardinals are my sleeper teams in the NFC.

I really like Football Outsiders but I have to when they say that the Rams should have the worst record and the worst Super Bowl odds in the league

in the nfce any team can beat another . i believe any team can win the division

i wouldnt draw any conclusions after one game

the eagles certainly can win the game and vick can hurt us bad

throw in a "rusty " game from Rg3 and we could lose .

i dont think we will but underestimate the eagles if you want too

 

[Clayton]

Shady McCoy is a top 3 RB in the league. Chip Kelly, better oline, fewer turnovers...they could win 6-8 games

Super bowl odds are bad, given you've got SF and Seattle in your division and everyone's anointed those teams as division winner and wild card.

I get that but they dropped our defense to #23 when we were #8 last year. Is Alec Ogletree going to be tackling our own players? Our Special Teams DVOA should also improve because Legatron had a funk last year and now we have Tavon Austin returning kicks.

There is no rhyme or reason to it
