8-7-1 is a winning season, but I will not argue with the theory that you are as good as your last 4-6 games.
The Cowboys, for example, finished the season 2-2...
You can count Week 16 at Philly all you want. But the Cowboys mailed that game in. They promoted a bunch of fodder off of the practice squad and let them play with 'Butt Fumble" the entire second half. Cowboys win came when they got out of that game without significant injuries to any starters.

I did not say that the 'Skins are not getting better. I did not say they got any worse, nor that they are status quo. All I asked (I did NOT say). But I asked a fargin' question. You guys have never given a crap about what I think anyway. So that is why I asked a question.
Question I asked is whether 8-7-1 is more indicative of who you are today or is 2-4?
Lets look at it another way. Would you rather have finished the last 6 weeks of season at 4-2 to be at 8-7-1? Or 2-4 and finish at 8-7-1?
And yes and concur. Put the rest of the league on notice, the NFC Beast is back.
Who cares when you win games? There are so many contributing factors. Injuries, suspensions (like Trents), etc etc. Who gives a crap about only the last few weeks? Like someone else asked you "do you consider Dallas a .500 team because they finished the year 2-2. If you lose next week 2-3?
Your question about how you gauge a team based on their finish cannot exclude your team? So either we are coming off a winning season, or (if you lose) we are both losers?
And just for the record you are not a troll imo and I do care what you have to say. Same as Giant one and Honolulu Blue.

Back to back winning seasons (C-O-N-S-I-S-T-E-N-C-Y) with a talented core of players clearly has the Skins what they actually are 8-7-1. Like I said, your reaching, wanting to believe.
Keep chasing those fucking windmills, Don Quixote. You understand that, or you need more help explaining the analogy?

Would I rather go out on a winning streak? Absolutely. Is your last half record indicative of the direction of your team as a whole? I 100% disagree. I just think it's some talking point by Kirwan. Were we the team that swept the last few games with RG3 at the helm? Just like everyone else is saying, there are a TON of factors. Everyone wants to go in hot, but if you don't, your team isn't any shittier.

C'mon? Be serious now. Your just looking at my avatar and trying to write sh*t off.
But you know and I know as well as anyone else knows that if a team, any team, starts a season off 9-0 and finishes 0-7 there will be coaches looking for jobs. Even a head coach. Sure 9-7 is a 'winning season' by simple math. But that 0-7 finish is a coffin nail.
Someone in Landover agress. Washington was in first place in the division for a short time this season. Then they finish 2-4 and the entire defensive staff gets fired.
typical uneducated cowboys fan, you don't even realize that your own team was in first place wire to wire this year. Go somewhere else peddle your stupidity.

He has a point. Aaron Rodgers is 7-0 (aka Sandtrap's version of undefeated) and is about to kick the shit out of his overrated squad.

The two are mutually exclusive? I'm intrigued.
Is this real life?
