Pretty amazing that a loss is what we needed to garner some respect around the league. The Skins jumped 12 spots in these power rankings (http://walterfootball.com/nflpowerrankings.php), and honestly we didn't play all that well, we didn't run the ball and got ran over by Freeman. I think we can win our division with all the woes of other teams in it, what do you guys think?
The division is definitely up for grabs but we need to win games rather than kudos in meaningless power polls.

Let's get to the bye and be over .500 (win the next 2) before we talk about division chances.

I agree, but I would rather jump up in power rankings then not.
Next two are pretty winable, so if we're sitting at 4-3 with DeSean coming back I feel decent about where we are.

Rather run under the radar and have people underestimate the Redskins.

I seriously just want to see growth this year. I want to feel that we've gotten better as the year went on and that by the end of the year we're on the cusp of being actually consistently good. No more being a 'sorta competent and healthy team that ekes out 8-10 wins' like we've been at best a couple times over the last 15 years.

Same here. So far it looks that way. Even though the record doesn't show it the Skins are vastly better than two years ago.

Man, healthy? Feels like we haven't been healthy (at least relatively) in AGES. Every team has injuries, but I feel like we just get decimated year after year.

I used to always think it was the conditioning staff / coaches to blame for all the injuries - one thing that always stood out to me is that we'd have guys finish the year with nagging injuries, and even by next off-season heading into camp the guys still had injuries here and there. But they changed conditioning coaches and it still seems to hit us. Just don't know enough about that area to make a good guess as to why it happens....
It's like we start the year...healthy and I'm like "Oh Yah Baby"!!!
3 weeks in half the starters are done and we're playing with guys off the PS..
I'm like...F me runnin'............... IDK
