The Sky is NOT Falling!

I totally agree. They are 2-1 and they really werent that far from being 0-3 . They werent going 16-0, this is 1 loss and now on to StL. If things go bad there then it might be time to re-evaluate but lets cross that bridge when we get to.

Welcome back, I knew a loss would bait you out of hiding. ;)

Keeping Dallas out of the end zone is further validation on how much the D has improved. Once the offense catches up, the Skins will be a consistent playoff threat. Even if the Skins don't finish better than 8-8, for the first time in years, I feel like better days are coming soon.

If the game had been in Washington we would have won. I think we will take round 2.

LOL, glad to be back. Actually I have been out of town but I was in town for last night's game and it was disappointing.

yup, we can come back from it, learn from it, there is now other way but up for this team.
don't blame it on Rex. our oline also have a lot of lapses

My superbowl this year is the Redskins Vs the Cowboys and we blew it.

It's a shame we don't get another chance at them!

We do.

Personally I wasn't too upset at the end of last night's game.

Unlike big games for the past few years, I wasn't sitting there thinking to myself "we are going to lose, unless we get completely lucky here". I was thinking "we're going to win this, unless Rex does something stupid, or we catch a bad break."

And we caught about 5 bad breaks (failing to recover fumbles, terrible 3rd-21 D, phantom face mask, etc) and Rex did something stupid (holding the ball too long at the end trying to be a hero).

With all that said, which team looked like the more organized, solidly coached, team? We did.

Williams handled Ware most of the game, we actually moved the ball pretty well and got into the end zone, and our defense didn't give up a TD. Take away two big plays late in the 4th that were clearly the result of a very tired defense (and Rak being sidelined with cramps didn't help), and you're looking at a pretty dominant lock down defensive performance.

As for Dallas, I've never seen a professional football team, much less a supposed championship-caliber one with an All Pro QB, fumble the ball that many times, look so disorganized, and have so many "NFL Follies" worthy moments that seriously lasted *the entire game* before.

The only real shame of us losing is the fact that the media now gets to cast this game as a "gutsy" performance by Romo and the narrative is that he's salvaged two games in a row, etc. But the bottom line is, we and Dallas are two teams going in opposite directions.

If Dallas fans want to celebrate a 2-point win over us, by all means. They should savor it though. That team is in bad shape. As for us, we missed an opportunity to get another win, but this season was never about winning the Super Bowl.

I'm not worried about standings right now. I'm worried about execution and developing our younger talent, and you have to feel pretty good about both of those things.

We do.

It's almost as if I was pointing out the irony in jamf's original post ("This was our Super Bowl and we blew it")
