6 games to go... predict the stretch run

6-0! if they play like they did at dallas yesterday!

Agreed!! Every game left needs to be played with high emotion, as if it was a playoff game.

The 'Skins should have played EVERY game this year as if it were their last. Yes, they played very well yesterday. But you just never know which team will show up week in, week out. let's hope they keep rolling and avoid further injuries and get some injured players back in the mix.

A lot of it depends on this week. Big game in Tampa coming up to decide if we can make the playoffs or not, and frankly it really depends on whether Sean Taylor can play at a high level or not. If he can, we shut down a very efficient TB offense and give Garcia hell all day. If he can't we give up too many points and lose a second consecutive game on the road.

This morning, I heard on Redskins Radio that Taylor won't play next week against Tampa. If that's the case, we could see a similar gameplan from Tampa that the Cowboys used yesterday. Galloway isn't quite TO, but he is a burner.

IF we DO NOT have the lead going into the half, they may be able to pull out some more W's

Galloway isn't quite TO, but he is a burner.Recall the playoff game where Taylor was ejected. Before the ejection, Tampa got nothing beyond 10-12 yards in their passing game. After that, they continually had chances downfield. This is the type of game where if we get a lead, Gibbs/Saunders must go for the blowout to take a defensive secondary breakdown out of the equation of a win or loss.

I said 4-2.

Wins against: Tampa, Buffalo, Chicago and Minnesota

Losses against: NYG and Dallas

Could be 3-3 if we lose next week. I'm also not sure how much Dallas will play their starters in the last week of he season- pure speculation now but...

Does anyone really know when we get Randy Thomas back? That really could make a difference. If anything, maybe down the streach it will make Joe Gibbs go for it on 4th and 1 more often. (I am still frustrated by the decision to attempt a 50 yard FG.)

I think 3-3. Gibbs 2.0 has a pretty lame record after Nov 1 and I just dont this year being any different.

Win: Buf, Chi, Min
Lose: TB, NYG, Dal

I say 3-3 at best, but it doesn't really matter.

If we lose to TB this week we are done. There is no way we'll get a wild card spot with a 3-4 record against NFC teams and 1-3 against NFC east so far, all the tiebreakers will go against us even if we end up 9-7.

4-2 and the Skins narrowly miss the playoffs. And while I wouldn't discount a great run by this team, the way things are breaking down, it's going to be at least 10 wins to make the playoffs, if not 11.

While 9-7 doesn't sound like an accomplishment, it's a 4 game swing from last season, and only the 2nd second season better than .500 since 1999. Something to hang the old hat on moving forward. Don't get me wrong, I will be greatly disappointed if the Skins don't make the playoffs...just have to take things into perspective sometimes.
For it to take 11 wins to make the playoffs the Lions have to win out. Playing GB twice that will not happen.
