Thanks for a great year, JG and all the skins!

After what this team's been through, making the playoffs was a testament to JG and his belief in character. Also, good to see GW get his mojo back. And kudos to Buges for making a patchwork bunch of backups and undrafted rookies into a real o-line. They had trouble today, but as was mentioned, Seattle is for real upfront, and they are VERY tough at home. Think it might have been a different story in DC, but that's the way it goes.

Kudos to ARE, Cooley, Portis, and Moss--they played with great heart. And Collins--what can you say? He had a tough time at the end, but if there's ever been a greater story of backup makes good, I haven't heard it. And props to Laron, Springs, and Smoot: great play, with heart and determination. And the picks showed that we still have a great young FS. And props to Reed--didn't know about his kid and the kidney transplant. That's the lead story for so many teams, and it's just another thing for the skins. What a year. Finally, Rock had a fantastic year and he really emerged as a leader. Love that guy.

Props most of all to Joe Gibbs. Without him, who are we? Just another football team, IMHO. With him, we are REDSKINS. Nuf said.

Hail to all the fans on this board, and Matty and all the mods for making this crazy year bearable, and even fun (!!) if that's possible given the circumstances. I'm proud to be on the best skins board there is.

I'm proud to be a Skins fan after a loss today as I have ever been. Thanks for leaving it all out on the field even after losing a teammate to a terrible tragedy.

DIDO!!! Watching the team play up to its potential the last 4 games of the regular season was priceless. Like someone else said... I'm ready for a break. Honestly, i don't even plan on watching the playoffs and maybe not even the SB this year. I want to remember this season for what it meant to the Skins and us fans.

Hail!

Man I kind of agree with you. It's been so emotional for all of us Redskin fans. Can you imagine what it's like for the players? I'm ready for a break too. The finality of it is kind of strange.

I second that! These last few weeks were some of the most fun games to watch for several years now. With a depleted O line, a second string QB, and most importantly, the death of ST, these guys were able to pull off some miracles. Thanks again, it is a joy to be a fan of this team. Wait till next year!

The best part was beating the Cowboys 27-6 and you know what? The Cowboys will beat NE in the SB, mark my words.

Great way to recover from a terribly unlucky season. I'm proud of my skins, the way they fought, and the way they came together.

Wait till next year!!!

Great thread.

It's funny, I'm really not as disappointed as I thought I would be. I guess I've already found my peace with the season. I'm proud of the way they fought and kept battling in the face of some extreme adversity. My hat is off tonight to Joe Gibbs and the Washington Redskins.

It was a memorable season. Thank you. I'm proud to be a Redskins fan.

obviously we didnt deserve a chance if we lost this game honestly

There are 4 games this week, so every team that loses didn't deserve the chance to play in the playoffs?????? Not a logical comment buddy.

Well, I agree with you about everything except I am just not ready to find my peace with the loss. I thought we were better than the Seahawks...I guess I was wrong and I'll come to peace with that eventually, but not today.

Still, it was a great season and I am proud of the skins, and proud to be a skins fan.
