Something to keep in mind about 1-2 start

Gibbs will make this work, just gotta stay patient and have faith.

If we can go the Philly game with at least 2 or 3 losses, I think we're in good shape.

:httr:

You mean at most 2 or 3 losses right?

it's all good. mine too

What is important is that we are firing on all cylinders if and when we do get to the playoffs. If we can't win the last few games in the regular season to make it in (against good teams), then we are not ready anyway. I think we will be on fire and man won't it be good to beat the good teams(not just the ones on the easy schedule)!!!

I have read from several sites that they are seeing an upward trend with this years team in performance & even Dikta last Monday night said that "just do what your doing Joe & it will come around"

Great to hear things like that from a legend!

I don't see this 1 and 2 record as that bad. It's Gibbs first time back and with new coaches and new players they haven't had the time to develop a chemistry and get into full swing, I would be happy with an 8-8 record or better. This is just as long as we win the superbowl next year.

In thinking about your post, I recalled there was an article posted somewhere noting the difficulty of our Redskin schedule, based on last year's won-loss records. Does anyone recall where that analysis was posted? I have a friend who keeps insisting our schedule is easy, though I remember the article stating that based on last year's record, our schedule is actually fairly tough.



I know Gibbs has said many times the past does not mean anything, however looking back at Redskins team past we have

1984 1-2, finished 11-5
1985 1-2, finished 10-6
1989 1-2, finished 10-6

I for one would be delirious if the team finished with a record as good as any of these old Gibbs' teams. Just thought I would point this out...keep the faith.

For anyone who is interested found this interesting site with the old W-L records

I think our schedule is ranked on the easy side, say 20+ with 32 being the easiest. But, we do have the toughest schedule of any team in the NFC East, according to last year's records.
