Redskins vs. 49ers week

Happy Holidays To EveryOne! And congratulations mauiRedskinbarn. Hopefully your first game will be a good one. A Redskin win would make going into the offseason a little easier to take. Hopefully we kick ass and go out on a positive note!

Agreed, I'd love to see a 52 point performance like the last time they played these guys. Won't happen, but I can ask for it as a Christmas present from Redskin Claus!!

HAIL!!

Reading this irritated ME, just a little... maybe not others, but...

This is from an article written from an interview with our boy Vinny Cerrato:

No longer in the hunt for an NFC wild-card berth, the Redskins could use their final game as an audition for next season, giving rookies such as Rinehart and Tryon playing time with the first team. But with the opportunity to finish with consecutive victories, "we're looking to win the game," Cerrato said. Rinehart "hasn't played yet. It makes no sense to do that. How's that fair to [starting left guard] Pete Kendall? We're not into evaluating, we're into winning the last two games in a row."



So basically, any of you hoping some rookies would get time Sunday (Rinehart, Tryon, Brennan), oh well.

I'm not on the bandwagon saying winning Sunday and finishing 9-7 is a big deal. What's wrong with letting a bunch of guys show what they can do with/against a first team offense/defense?? What's so wrong if they don't help win and we finish 8-8?

We should be focused on 2009 and beyond right now shouldn't we? That's jusy MY opinion, but regardless, I also think it's stupid to not give these guys and opportunity to show what they can do....

As much as I would like to see a game that went like the one from '05 vs. them, it's just probably not going to happen.

But it would be cool to see.

You play to win the game no matter what. I don't have a problem with what he said.

I agree with wanting to win the last two games. But since losing 5 of 7, we need to evaluate what we have in a real game. The 49ers are going out to WIN, as should we. But with that said, this gives us a prime opportunity to see what Brennan, Kelly, and Thomas can do. I like what I've seen from Campbell this year, but I don't think he will develope into an ELITE QB. I understand all the coach changes, but you need to fave adversity and accept it, not use it as an excuse. I would love to see Colt play Sunday. He will give us the best possiblity to score more than 30pts this year. You never know, he could be the next Brady or Cassel, late round draft picks emerging in the NFL to be elite QB's.

Completely agree. Offseason and preseason is for evaluating and trying things out.

Correctamongo!

it hurts really bad not playing past this week. especially with our group of guys...The Rams loss really hurt us...if we coulda won that one we would have been in much better shape at this point, same goes in Cinci...where was the Defense that day? But ALL in ALL we still have alot of promise on our roster in its entirety.
with that said...
LETS BEAT THE HELL OUT OF THE NINERS TO CLOSE OUT THIS SEASON!..and move on to the offseason.

I agree about the play to win, it's the only way. 2 things I would like to see is to give Rob Jackson and Rinehart playing time, the way Fabini looks I don't think Rinehart playing would hurt the team anymore and with Alexander benched activate Jackson.

Shaun Hill is going to show us why he should be the starting QB for us. He is going to pass for over 250, with 1 TD, and Gore will bang in another. We will lose 17-10...

OR... Fred Davis scores his first two TD's of his career, and Portis gets us some legitimate fantasy points with 100 yards and 1 TD, and we win 21-17...
