Conversely 4-0 teams have around an 80% chance of making the playoffs. So you're saying there's a chance? MTK 10-06-2009, 09:32 AM A good football team creates their own luck. It's making dumb personnel decisions that upsets me. How could anyone trade a Hall of Fame cornerback to Denver for a devisive running back? How could the Redskins let a solid middle linebacker who was our defensive field general go to the hated New York Giants? And how could the Redskins not see the deficiencies of the offensive line that's been there for several years and not fix it? Sometimes Campbell looks bad because the people around him make him look like a second-rate QB. To sign the dregs of the NFL, other teams' castoffs, as a fix to the offensive line is outrageous! One thing the Redskins should learn this year is that Vinnie Cerrato needs to go, and the sooner the better! Nothing like picking at old scabs huh tryfuhl 10-06-2009, 09:09 PM these plays ring out as bad luck to us because we don't have better ones to make up for it AP had clay matthews strip the ball and run it back for a TD.. we'd see that as bad luck because it would lose the game it's only temporarily unfortunate for Minn, because they won and looked mostly good doing so Ijaeger 10-06-2009, 10:01 PM Everyone's talking about luck when we all know damn well it's a curse...the Snyder Curse lol Sorry, but dude just cannot get a plan to come together, kinda feel sorry for the guy, but we'll be lucky to see another ring as long as he's involved imho. I've felt this way ever since Gibbs left...again. tryfuhl 10-07-2009, 05:44 PM Well earned. Seriously, we've completely deserved our 2 wins against the non-schedule we've played. Expected W-L (http://www.pro-football-reference.com/about/glossary.htm): 1.8-2.2. <--Per PFR. I'm not saying we deserved to lose those games but I'm not going to use some expected win stat to say that we earned those well. How did the losses come about? JLee9718 10-12-2009, 04:22 PM In Gibbs I, he had Richie Petitbon (sp?) as his defensive coach. He won. In Gibbs II, he didn't have Petitbon, and he seemed lost, almost to the point of having people feel sorry for him. Plus Bugel was a lot younger back then (we all were!), but can he really see what the offensive line really looks like? So I'm tired of listening to those who say that what this team needs is for Gibbs to come back. sportscurmudgeon 10-12-2009, 04:26 PM Luck is the residue of good preparation and planning. Don't remember who said that but it is more true than not true. The Skins will get a little luck when they plan better on how to put together a winning team and a winning organization. Until then, so long and thanks for all the fish... rbanerjee23 10-13-2009, 10:48 AM just to add to this thread... that fluke punt that completely cost the Redskins the game...This team is under the Snyderrato curse, those two must go freddyg12 10-13-2009, 10:50 AM just to add to this thread... that fluke punt that completely cost the Redskins the game...This team is under the Snyderrato curse, those two must go At the time I felt like it was just bad luck, but give carolina credit; their guy pushed westbrook into ARE which caused that to happen. If westbrook could've held his ground, that wouldn't have happened.
