This season is far from over. I feel sorry for the Eagles next week, cuz they are gonna be facing a very pissed off Joe Gibb's team

There are three things you have to do right in the NFL to win.

1. Run the ball
2. Stop the run
3. Win the turnover battle

If you can do that consistently, you will have at least a 70% winning percentage.

WE DID NONE OF THE ABOVE YESTERDAY.

If we fix these problems, then the season is far from over. If not, look forward to the number 5 draft spot again. It is that simple.

Figure out what happened with our O-line yesterday, and half the problems go away. We will get back to our ball control game and protect our D-line' run defense by keeping them off the field.

Get some help on that D-line to stop the run outside. Skins do a good job clogging up the middle, but the outside is killing us. Fix that, and you can actually overcome a turnover or two.

But with all three things going wrong, no chance to win, ever. Yesterday was a very miserable day for skins fans. Hope there are no repeats in the future.

Over? Why, because they stumbled against the Giants after crushing the Niners?

As Brian Mitchell said on the Redskins Post Game show, Can't get too high after a win and you can't get too low after a loss.

I look forward to the rest of the season to reveal the character of the team.

I don't think the season's over but it doesn't look favorable if the Skins revert to pre-season form. The offense was progressing from game to game and then they hit a brick wall. I was concerned about the Giants game but no way should they have been thrashed like that. We will see what kind of character this team has next week. In years past, they have folded the tent and gone home. I hope this is not the case this year.

Unfortunately, we traded away this years draft spot to the Denver Broncos so we could get Jason Campbell. SO we couldnt even look forward to that.

I think the season could potentially be over after next week, not because of a physical loss, but an emotional loss. We need to be careful next week and make sure we don't loss it emotionally. We do have alot of season left, and the schedule will be difficult. And who the hell has given us a shot anyway this season, we need to take the garbage they WILL write about us and use it for motivation. Every team in our divison has gotten there ass kicked so far this year, it just happened to be our turn I guess. Hail to the Redskins!!!

Good tag line MK72. It pissed me off before I finished reading it!
It's only over if the Skins are not the team I believe they are. In Gibbs first tenure, the team had evolved to the point that the players held their own meetings to take care of performance issues, etc. I believe we will see some of that type of evolution now. I believe this team has the heart and the wheels to get the job done. I believe they will start with the Eagles!!!!!!! I, like those just like me, cannot publicly admit it is EVER over!

"Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!"

I'm still trying to figure out what to say about the game because there are so many things, I truly do not know where to start. Dissapointing to say the least, but all is not lost "YET". It wasn't so much that we lost a football game, but the way we lost leaves a lot to be desired.

I would never give up on a season until we are officially eliminated from the playoff hunt. Like I said in another post, Gibbs teams have had bad offensive performances before and bounced back. Just look at the 1986 championship when New York shut us out 17-0. We came back the next season and won the Super Bowl. My concern rests with the defense. After showing incredible dominance last season despite multiple injuries, they haven't played up to standard this year. They were especially horrible last week against the run. And I think it actually started the week before against SF. Even though they played a solid game overall against a weak offense, they still managed to give up a 72 yard touchdown run late. Frankly, I've been worried about our run defense ever since Shaun Alexander broke off that 34 yard run in the second half of the Seahawks game. Injuries are no excuse. We played through them last year and we need to play through them again. It's time for our guys to show some backbone and bounce back from this disastrous game.
