Let's see, the defense picks a meaningless game to suck it up. While the offense sucked it up the whole season. I guess it ain't so bad. Let the offseason begin! (speculations, vet minimums, free agency, and the draft!)
Shit, anybody blaming the defense for the shitty season should be slapped upside the head. The bastards are the ones who single handedly gave us last weeks Philly win and kept us in numerous games where our offense as usual fell flat. Oh boy we actually got 3 TDs for a change!!!!!! Yeah off the crappy 49ers with an interim HC. The offseason is going to be very interesting indeed. I have to admit, I will laugh my ass off if all of a sudden I hear Zorn gets the boot after all.

Do the Redskins have a fan depression hotline?

49ers drove down the field, no contested throws. Nedneys going to attempt a 39 yarder for the win.
Dude what kind of freakin defense was that?
To get caught off guard on defense during the last drive of the game is pathetic.:doh:

The suckiest part of today is that we were told all week by Cerrato and Zorn is "we are playing to WIN" because it's hugely important we finish 9-7...
It just pisses my off more... but what can you do? This is our team... 8-8 ... middle of the pack

The Skins losing today doesn't surprise me at all. They have been horrible the 2nd half of the season. The offense has been pathetic. The defense has kept us in most of the games, although they could be more dominating. It's on to cheering for the Ravens in the playoffs. Good job, Redskins! Way to miss the playoffs!:goodjob:

Funny, but then again the Skins are one of the most storied franchises in the NFL, while the Detroit Lions have only the mid to late 50's to look back on. Today showed without a doubt we have a shitload of holes to fill to get back to real contention. You would have thought Zorn would have really go all out since his boss gave him at least another season.
We had a rookie coach and played in one of the most competitive conferences in the league. An 8-8 is better than a losing season, only in here and among the Redskins faithful, we had a hope of playoffs and superbowls.
The Lions managed to lose every single game in a pretty bad conference. And our loathed Cowboys, who were picked to win the Superbowl, with a whole bunch of superstar players, took a big dump at the end. Once again, you can dwell on the 8-8 and bitch about it all offseason long, or you can see this as a year of getting the kinks of a new headcoach out of the way (without having a losing record) and build the team in the offseason.
This team needs to FIX their offense, and unless that doesn't happen (and it shows) we're going to continue to end our seasons in december or be one and done in the playoffs.

HEY ... everyone!!
I have news that will REALLY make you feel better...
You think you are pissed about our season??
The New England Patriots finish 11 - 5 and OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS! (Sitting at home like Skins)
Feel better?
The NFL needs to REALLY look at the playoff selection system.... geesh.

We need a new O line, a new D line, at least one CB and S, and a new WR or two. We have JC for at least one more year, but I think if he can't turn the corner he will be let go for sure. What does this mean? Means this team is in constant turmoil/rebuilding mode unless someone gets his head out of his ass and comes up with a Concrete Planfor getting the franchise back on track. A General Manager would be just the thing.
