skinsfan69 10-21-2007, 06:32 PM Here's the deal.
We will only make the playoffs if some other team screws up.
The skins have not really been outplayed by anyone all year.
In fact, they gave away 2 critical NFC games, NY and GB.
You should not be a legitimate playoff team if you are giving games away.
We are lucky when the Skins tried their very hardest to lose a third today but didn't.
This is not a team that puts teams away with leads.
Our 2nd half adjustments just plain suck offensively.
What did we do with a lead these games?....you got it....we went into a shell and hoped the clock expired.
We only won today because the cardinals coaching staffs were idoits on the 2 pt conversion...
We are not a "winning" team.
We basically only win when the other team "loses" the game.
(except for Detroit)
We are still a 7-9 team, 9-7 if we are lucky....get ready for some losses.
Our offensive line just sucks....worst in years....I sure hope Randy Thomas gets his butt back sooner....either that or we need to make some serious changes on the right side of the line.
WTF was Wisenhunt thinking on that 2 point conversion?? What a dumb ass call.
skinsnut 10-21-2007, 06:40 PM WTF was Wisenhunt thinking on that 2 point conversion?? What a dumb ass call.
I will take every mistake our competition gives us....since we are currently not strong enough to earn a win on our own merit.
Skins_4_Lyfe 10-21-2007, 06:47 PM No, we're not a playoff team with this offense. I honestly think Gibbs has a contract with NFL's Game of the Week because it seems as if they're intentionally making these games close. Excpect to see us on the show yet again....
Crazyhorse1 10-21-2007, 06:50 PM I will take every mistake our competition gives us....since we are currently not strong enough to earn a win on our own merit.
No. We are not a play-off team. Our most obvious and important deficiency is play calling.
mooby 10-21-2007, 06:50 PM I gotta agree about the second half adjustments, or lack thereof. We go into the locker room with a lead and everyone's all, oh all we gotta do is let the clock run for another 30 minutes and we win! But the opponent goes into their locker room, and is all, they are doing this this and this correctly, lets fix those problems and force them to beat us in other ways, and then they come out and execute and we're just like, wtf? Why isn't it working anymore?
I know that's not really what happens but honestly that's what feels like is happening. Gibbs said at the end of the first half that he was happy with the team's play, the only negative was the pick by Calvin Pace. If I were the head coach I would've been extremely pissed about our team's play on offense in the entire first half.
The moral of this game is, we won because of the turnovers. At least we can do something right for once, if this was 2006 we would've lost this game because we couldn't force turnovers worth a shit last year. Sean Taylor should be getting some serious props, he's leading the league in interceptions right now, but should one of the other players that have 4 interceptions get another one then he'll be tied. But who seriously would've thought that ST would be leading the league in picks right now? He's having easily his best season as a pro.
GTripp0012 10-21-2007, 06:55 PM The Cardinals are a pretty good team. Look, I'd like to say that we made the plays when it counted...which was true up until the onside kick. After that play, we were lucky we didn't get a win stolen from us. Gregg Williams strategic playcalling in a unique situation was about as assinine as Saunders' playcalling is every third and short (three steps, throw quick to no one in particular).
I didn't think the Skins played especially bad today, but they didn't play especially well either. All you can say about the end of the game is that it was a crazy situation...and we ended up winning.
We forced three turnovers and that is why we won today. No other reason.
saden1 10-21-2007, 06:57 PM We can't run, we can't throw and the only reason we're in games is because of the gutsy play of the D. Gibbs and Saunders should be ashamed of their terrible coaching performance...just terrible.
I'm not ready to write this team off just yet but with the NE next, I'm not really expecting much from the O which is a shame really because I think our D will do a fantastic job to keep us in the game.
Sheriff Gonna Getcha 10-21-2007, 07:01 PM Yes. Our defense alone makes us a playoff caliber team. Today the defense gave up a lot of yards, but they also nabbed 3 turnovers, including one for 7 points. The offense looked absolutely dreadful, but who cares when the defense is winning tight games? Right now, you can't say we are not a playoff caliber team unless you can name 6 NFC clubs that are better.
BigSKINBauer 10-21-2007, 07:04 PM At this point it doesn't matter. We need to keep playing our game and pull for a 10-6 season with atleast 4-2 in the division.
The cards are a good team with Warner. WIth leinart the sucked. Every time warner was put in they did well> They looked good with him at the end of the steelers game and the ravens game. Both of those were losses. To me they could easily be 5-1 going into this game. The lost their three games by a total of 13 points.
We played a good team and won because our defense is sick and our
defense will pull us to the playoffs in my opinion.

You cant, Dallas nearly lost to the Bills and they are a really bad team, and right now there losing to minnesota. What kills me is that some people fail to realize last year we were 5-11, and this year were 4-2 and fans are complaining, come on guys.
