This is absolute loser talk. We should stop worrying about other teams helping the Skins back into a post-season position, and talk about why our team can't take care of its own business and finish a damn game.
You are absolutely correct, you should NOT have to worry about other teams. But that is simplly not the case here. Washington has put themselves in a position now where they will have to watch other teams and hope for help outside of the organization.
If the Skins were at 8-3, 7-4 or even 6-5 then there would be more control of your own destiny. But there is a quagmire of 5-6 NFC teams trying to get a WC and the fact of the matter is of all those teams, the Redskins are the only team sitting on a 3 game skid.
This team has always been a force in December, much like the Giants have crumbled in December. Washington needs to win the month of December...period or you can go ahead and start a thread about Aprils NFL Draft.
