Should We Be As Happy With This Win

I'm very happy with this win. I don't care if the Jets are 1-7, it's tough to win in the NFL, especially on the road.

I know we didn't play great and we may not be the Super Bowl favorite but I'm very happy with this hard fought win.

I never seen so many people who do know how to enjoy a win!!

I do not care how it happens, like everyone said a win is a win. The offense found some what of a stride and with that rushing attack we give the offense more time to gel with Campbell. I really think he is so close to becoming a solid QB. How many times this season has he barely overthrown Moss or El? Soon those passes will start falling for huge gains. With a win next weekend against the Eagles we could have some nice momentum going into Texas to face those girls. BUT I would like to send a shout out to the many on this board that thought this weekend was going to be a blowout win for the Redskins. Goes to show that you CAN NOT look through any team in the NFL. Clemens sure didnt look like the weakling backup everyone percieved.

I'm happy--I can wear my Skins gear on the subway in peace. It was brutal after the Giants loss...

amen to that, walking around murray hill in my skins gear bf the game started was looking more and more cocky as the game went on...

happy we won, but we have to play alot better if we want to go anywhere this season. The offense especially the pass offense has to pick up the pace. Against good team like Dall,NYG, etc we have to be able to pass on them to have a chance.

This win feels better than the pathetic Arizona win, but both beat the hell out of any loss.

they both feel kinda dirty lol. we need more games like the DET game

The rest of the season is very important now:

Eagles.......(3-5) - Must win for Skins.....6-3 (NFC-E)
Cowgirls.....(7-1) - Likely Loss for Skins...6-4 (NFC-E)
Bucs..........(5-4) - Must win for Skins.....7-4 (NFC)
Bills...........(4-4) - Must win for Skins.....8-4 (AFC)
Bears.........(3-5) - Must win for Skins.....9-4 (NFC)
Giants........(6-2) - Must win for Skins....10-4 (NFC-E)
Vikings.......(3-5) - Must win for Skins....11-4 (NFC)
Cowgirls.....(7-1) - Must win for Skins.....12-4 (NFC-E)

The Cowgirls have to get by the Packers, Giants and Skins. Hope for 3 loses there that would tie us 12-4

Hope that Detroit and NE beat the Giants. Then it is our job to make sure we beat the Giants to give them an 11-5 record.

Of course, any given Sunday!!!

Wow, such brilliant insight.. The rest of the season wasn't important before now? :laughing2

While I'd love to go 7-1 down the stretch I'd also like Santa Clause to bring me an autographed picture of the Easter Bunny but I don't see that happening either..

Of course we should be happy.
1) We WON the stinkin game
2) Portis and the O-line played very well (at least in run-blocking)
3) Nobody got hurt.

That said, the passing game needs a massive amount of work. I'm a little concerned about the D allowing 338 yards or whatever it was, but holding them to 13 points (7 came on that damn KO return)on the road is solid. This Jets squad is in large part the same team that went 10-6 last year, so I'll take it.

But damn it, our offense has just GOT TO start scoring more points.

good read. and maybe instead of all the bitching, be proud?

I hope it's not true that AS believes in becoming more conservative on offense as the defense improves because that's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life. Keeping games close by design and failing to finish off teams means losing a bunch that you shouldn't and finishing at 500.
