A few comments about he schedule:
1. We play each of our divisional opponents in prime time.
2. We don't play the G-strings until the final 5 weeks of the season. You know Mara had a hand in that.
3. I agree that week 5 is too early for the bye. Another Mara jobbing?

I'm not worried about the schedule, at all. They're going to win 9+ games this year, whoever gives us the W's is meaningless to me.
This is no longer a team that we have to hope/wish/pray will win games. They're good enough to beat people, handily.

Agreed, but I definitely smirked at eagles first game and frowned a bit at such an early bye. Just seemed weird to have it that early. I expect very good things from this team this year, and I do realistically, not hopefully.
I know he got a pretty good zip on the ball. He has a quick release. . . once I seen a coupla' throws, I was just like 'Yeah, he's that dude.'"

Yeah I'm not hyped about that first MNF game. I doubt RGIII will be ready by then, so its not going to be the game it could have been. Also after waiting all off season and pre-season, I kind of hate not playing on Sunday that first weekend.
Nice that its a home game!
Good sentiment from Chris though. I agree. They can play whoever and whenever. Just win enough of those games to get into the playoffs.

For the sake of trying to be too clever by half, wouldn't the fact that we're scheduled for the MNF opener give us reason to think that the league office has received some kind of assurance or been led to believe or at least gotten indicators, that Griffin will be playing in that game? I vaguely recall reports that they were inquiring as to just such information from the redskins a few months back.

Funsho,
I read that too, but reading a little more closely, they played the eventual superbowl champ in their home opener, which would be San Diego in Week 2.

Yep. that settles it. We're most certainly into the depths of the off season and desperately need the draft to have something tangible to talk about.

Despite RGIII making the most of them, I'm still "anti" on prime time games. I guess I need more than one year of re-education to undo decades of misery training.

Let the intensive therapy towards full rehabilitation begin!
Daniel Snyder has defined incompetence, failure and greed to true Washington Redskins fans for over a decade and a half. Stay away from football operations !!!

+1
They don't scare me the way they used to. RGIII seems to thrive on the national stage. That last game, excepted.

My thoughts re the schedule? Bugger.
So many games kicking off after midnight UK time, I may need to take up some kind of drug habit to stay awake through the season.
