The Sky is NOT Falling!

OK I totally agree with most that this was a tough loss to stomach, a REALLY tough one. We have to step back and realize that this team is still a work in progress. This was a brutal NFC East game that played down to the wire and they made 1 or 2 plays more than we did.

Time to put this one behind us, keep working on the little things (like holding a snap on a field goal and sticking with the run late in the 4th quarter). Wipe this from memory and move on to St. Louis.

Remember, most of us here have this a 7-9 or 8-8 team when the season started. As Coach Denny Green said, "We are who we though we were". I am encouraged by the nucleus of this team and they are on the right track. A win next week to be 3-1 at the bye will be huge and put us in good position going into October and November. This is not the same old Redskins we have seen the past 10-15 years. They are a much improved team that is still putting it all together and they will be in every game. The SKY IS NOT FALLING!

i dont think anyone is saying the sky is falling. I think most are pissed at a missed opportunity against a division foe, who on offense, was just pathetic. We caught the Cowgurls at the perfect time, with the lead in the 4th and found a way to lose. I think this thread more appropriate if we went in there and got killed.

I'm disappointed that we let a very winnable game slip away, but big picture I still like the team and the direction we're heading in.

If people think the sky is falling than chances are they aren't looking at this team closely. This was a tough loss against a division rival at their home. This game should have been in the bag. It's astounding they had 7 fumbles and we only recovered 1. What is the luck that those balls bounce in the air for Romo to snag it. Also that 3rd and 21 was the dagger.

Hard to believe with all those botched snaps that one of them didn't bounce our way.

We just gave away a win to our most hated opponent and division rival.

If this game is nothing more than a bad loss to any team in the league then go ahead and pretend it's not a big deal.

For me, This game will matter more than any other game this year. We are a rebuilding team. I have no dreams of a long playoff run.
My superbowl this year is the Redskins Vs the Cowboys and we blew it.

True but Grossman has been a work in progress his whole career. until we plug that hole, the ship will sink. I have the Skins going 10-6 this season and believe they will. But it will be off the shear force of the Defense and just enough Offense to get it done. But if we are going to win the big battles, Grossman has to finally get his shit together. After all these years, it's finally our time, the last thing we need now is a team that is a QB away from what I believe to be this seasons NFC Championship contender and a run for a SB in within the next 2 years.

We need to recognize this now... in the end it will all come down to the QB position. Grossman has the ability, but there is just something that that throws him off, we need to find out what it is and fix it.

Last week he had such a nice feel on the ball and his mind was sharp. Last night it was like he was throwing lead weights and had zero awareness to his surroundings both in the backfield and upfield.

When/if we solve our red-zone problems, score a few TD's as opposed to FG's we can rest a little easier in some of these close, hard fought games. When you allow teams to stay close because you can't score, what happened last night will usually result.

The sky is not falling, but the smallest of things are magnified when we lose.

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.
