If someone goes for 2,000 it’s probably Ezekiel Elliott. Got the talent. Got the line. And it looks like there’s not going to be much of a pass game so he’s going to have to be their entire offense 

That's a doubled edged sword though. Because they have little passing offense, you can expect the percent of the time that defenses opt to go with 8+ defenders in the box go way up. You'd expect it to be higher, but Zeke faced such situations a pretty average portion of the time thus far in his career.

There were only six TEAMs that ran for 2,000 yards last season.  Washington as a team ran for only 1,448 yards.  

The Redskins don't have a starting LG on the roster right now.  

Trent Williams and Morgan Moses are coming off surgery entering the season.  

Chris Thompson will still get a large amount of carries.  

I would be surprised if Guice goes over 1,200 yards honestly.

I expect the Redskins to be very conservative & play with a lead for 2/3rds of the season. That's at least 10 games.

Somehow Guice rushing for 2000 yards wasn't the most outrageous claim in this thread.

Here is last year's prediction, 

 

I can't find the one from before when Ace nearly correctly predicted Cousins going for 5000 yards cause it was on the old forums I think, shame because that was a good one and he was almost right.

Which is all the more interesting now that he's done a full heel turn on Cousins.

2/3 of the season is 40:00 minutes per game. The best team in the NFL last year in that regard was the Rams at 36:28. 

Only teams in the last decade have pulled off this feat

2016 New England Patriots
2011 Green bay Packers

Both of which won at least 14 games.

Good luck ace.

Is that who he was referring to when he mentioned that Alex Smith doesn't throw away games like "you know who"?
