No, I can't. Thanks for pointing out my learning disability. I'm actually having this read to me right now...
You B-A-R-E-L-Y won that game. I watched it. Had the vikings been quarterbacked by a legit NFL qb, your defense was toast.
Maybe, but the Vikes really do not have a legit #1 WR to complement a QB either. They have a very good 2 headed running attack, and a stout run defense.
Now I am unclear as to the definition of "barely won" is it a 10 point spread? 14? 21? I would not say Dallas barely won, they beat a lesser opponent they were supposed to beat. (BTW the spread at gametime was 9.5, and Dallas covered, I am not so sure that Washington even covered.) "Barely" is such a relative term. But one would have to classify a 2 point difference as barely, expecially since it was very close to a Cardinals upset.
Not to mention after this week the Redskins will be 4-3 and Dallas 6-1 and a 2 game lead in the division with 9 games to go.
If you don't believe me just ask Joe Gibbs. And I quote:
ASHBURN, Va. -- Clinton Portis (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=5937) is having the worst stretch of his career. Santana Moss (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=5463) has a total of 8 yards receiving in his last two games. Jason Campbell (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=7201) put up the kind of numbers Sunday that had fans screaming for Mark Brunell (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=2485)'s benching three years ago.
The Washington Redskins (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was) had barely enough offense to beat the Arizona Cardinals (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=ari). That kind of output won't do next week against the juggernaut otherwise known as the New England Patriots (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=nwe).
"We'll probably be the biggest underdog in the history of sports," coach Joe Gibbs said Monday. "Has anything held up against them? Do you have a game plan that will work against them? If you do, leave it here. Because I don't think anybody else has got one right now. We're going to struggle hard."
