Here's a link to a Si.com article about how the remaining undefeated teams will fare. Guess who they have doing the worst?

LINK (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2005/writers/andrew_perloff/09/28/undefeated.teams/index.html)

Here's the money quote...

"Washington Redskins (2-0) -- The Redskins' defense is nasty. But I'd be surprised if the offense ended the season ranked any higher than 26th. Their schedule gets tough in a hurry, with trips to Denver and Kansas City looming. And put down Washington's next game against Dallas as a loss. Chance They'll Make Playoffs: 30 percent"

I will admit that we are not on the same level as Indy, but a 30 percent chance?!?!?! No respect I tell you.

The worst part is his Dallas quip. He forgets that we beat them IN DALLAS.

Your Thoughts?

Thank you.

I realize that our 6-10 record last year is reason enough for people to doubt us, but we can't seen to catch the benefit of the doubt that other teams seem to get. Any ideas why? Is it Snyder?

Not that I think we're going to lose, but I think we have the best CHANCE to lose this week of all the unbeatens. Tampa gets detroit, Indy gets TN, and the Bengals get the Texans. We have the hardest opposing team coming our way. Until we show we have an offense capable of scoring some points we won't get any respect. If our offense stays this anemic I say that a 30% chance is pretty good. We need to put points up.

It seem's people are making judgements about us not having watched Brunell for the last 4 minutes against Dallas, how anyone could pick against us after that performance is beyond me? Don't they know that Brunell is now a totally different QB than he was a year ago? I guess none of them saw Brunell in the pre-season. I also don't believe they really know what Portis did while playing in denver, coming out of denver he was on pace to break every rushing record known to mankind, even last year with us he had one of the great seasons a Redskin ever had over 1300 yards, averaging a little over 3 yards a carry, anyone can get 1300 with a 4.5 average, Portis did it the old school way, how many backs have what it takes to gain over 1300 yds averaging 3 yds a carry, Portis has that kind of toughness, if only they could see through their bias to make fair and objective predictions, don't they know Gibbs is concealing most of our game plan until we really need it? Once he deciedes to unleash it boy are these experts going to look stupid! I can't wait! :biggthump

Pasta Belly!! That's funny.
I thought that Dallas faced a lot of haters in the media, but wow! does the sports writing fraternity hate the Skins or what!! maybe it is Snyder.
