We really need this win tonight! I know there is cap gate, but the biggest reason is it is starting to look like the Skins' only path to the playoffs is as the division winner. With a Searle win yester and the of their last for games at home, it is starting to look they are destined to get that last wild card slot with Chicago our Green Bay getting the other.
Plus Dallas won so they're technically ahead of us right now. We are sitting like 10th place for 6 spots.

Must-win.
I hate Monday night games. Maybe it's because we've done so poorly in most of them for so long.
If anyone can turn that around, it's RGIII.
But I still hate Monday night games.

I expect nyg to bring their A game, I expect RG3 to bring his A game, the question marks I have is how will our Defense show and how will our running game and receivers perform. LETS GO WIN

I've been thinking a lot on this the past ten days. I really think all of the pressure tonight is on the Giants.
Honestly if the Skins lose tonight, its not going to be some big shocker. Its not an upset. NY is *supposed* to be the better team. People are going to say we lost to the defending Super Bowl champs. Skins fans will be upset and disappointed, but that's kind of par for the course.
Seriously I think the Giants are scared of RGIII. They don't have a commanding lead in the East, and they don't want to lose on national tv in prime time. We'll see how it goes.
Having said all that, I'm a little more nervous about this game after watching the Cowboys/Eagles last night. Not only do the Eagles suck, but the Cowboys nearly lost to the worst Eagles team in 20 years. I'm afraid that tarnishes our two game winning streak a little bit.

Its clouding up and starting to look like rain. Tough to say if there is an advantage, it might be a question of who has the better mudders, i would give G3 an advantage on both arm strength for pass control and the ability to improvise.
We have to find a way to win and i'll give advantage to our defense secondary, i feel the Giants front line is equal to our defensive line but if rain and mud become an issue our secondary should have an advantage over the Giants receivers.
I believe i'd see it rain, our kicker will win the game.
We have to win and kick the Giants asses, shut out Cruz. Get him frustrated early and he won't be worth 2 cents in the 4th quarter.
We got home field advantage and our fans have got to scare the s**t out of the Giants and be loud!
We need this win.

David Diehl is out for the Giants. Sean Locklear will be filling in and facing Ryan Kerrigan.
Trent Williams looked extremely uncomfortable in warm-ups, but he is a go; along with London Fletcher who continues his starting streak
