It's really key to get to 3-0 next weekend.. There was a stat on NFL Network last night that every team (12 of them last year) that started 3-0 in '04 finished above .500, 7 of them went to the playoffs.. With 2 weeks to prepare for a home game and Seattle being consistently inconsistent we should have an excellent chance at 3-0..
I have been saying since the schedule came out that we need to be no less than 4-2 going into the Eagles game on Nov. 6th if we wanted to make the playoffs.. After that (and now the Tampa game the following week) it should be a very manageable schedule (home for Oakland & SD, at St. Louis & Arizona) before our division run (2 of 3 games at Fed Ex though) at the end of the season.

12 teams went 3-0 last year??? that seems allittle odd to me
one stat, 11 teams that won week one last year went to the playoffs, that is of the 16 teams that won in week one, sadly we were one of the five that didn't go

The more wins the better are chance at the playoffs!!!
Just broke it down simple for everyone.
2-0.
Seahawks won't be easy. Unfortunately none of our games are easy until our offense is putting up 30 pts a game. Thank goodness for our defense!
Bottom line is still all business; 2-0 is better than 0-2.

we will beat the seahalks, after a bye that coaches can use for more planning and players can rest i think it makes an even game push in our favor. 3-0 3-0 3-0 3-0 3-0 3-0

Well as long as we're jumping the gun and talking playoff after just two weeks, how about this stat-
Joe Gibbs has started 2-0 (or better) three times in his career before this year:
1982-Won Super Bowl
1986-Lost NFC Championship Game
1991-Won Super Bowl
