Root hard for Philly tonight

I just found this message board and I'm a big longtime Redskins fan. Just wanted to see what everybody thought about Philly losing? It seems most wanted Dallas to lose tonight but in the grand scheme of things I believe this was a better outcome for us than the eagles winning. Here is why.

The more teams we can eliminate from this NFC east logjam the better. If we can win our games then we have Dallas and New York coming in late in the year.

Also the eagles game in philly for us at the end of the season will probably be meaningless for the eagles. If the eagles have nothing to play for then mcnabb will have surgery and not even play against us. If we can't beat the eagles when they don't have mcnabb and they are out of it then we aren't a playoff team.

So let the giants and cowboys stay a game ahead of us for awhile. If we take care of business we have the home games against both of them.

If Philly won tonight we would have had a logjam in the nfc east. Now philly is 0-3 in east play and they are probably about done. If they won they would have a very favorable schedule from here on out. But this 1 game will probably do them in and let's face it they were the team to beat in the east for awhile. It's better that they are out of it and now we can focus on NY and Dallas.

the divisional picture is finally shaping up. i hate eliminating teams because last year we were like 3-8 and i still had hope, but i really think philly is done as they have @rams and seahawks not to mention skins and giants twice left

Cowboys and Giants play each other the week we play the rams, before that the cowboys have lions and denver.

I think the cowpukes will drop ATLEAST one between denver and @ giants if not both, but it does not get easier, they play K.C then PLAY US at fed ex and then to top their shit whole to the brim they got @ Carolina. I don't see them playing very well in that 5 game stretch
Denver L
@Gints L
K.C. W
@Skins L
@ Carolina L
but i think they have to lose 3 of those 5, even though i predicted they will lose 4 i doubt they actually will. They seem to be able to lose all of those games but i doubt that they lose more than 3, we are looking at 2-3 losses for them in there

the gints being one game ahead are in good position as they have a decent schedule but their schedule isn't as good as ours. i will put my rough predictions next to the games
Philly W
@seahawks L
Dallas W
@Philly L
K.C W
@skins L
@oakland W

Nice first post. Welcome to the board. I haven't really looked too much into all the mathematical ramifications of who loses what games quite yet

i see the cowboys finishing 9-7 and the giants finishing 10-6

:welcome:

yeah as long as we beat Dallas and giants at home we have no problem but that ain't easy. Dallas and gints play each other so one team will be out of our way if we beat them both.

Thanks. We squandered a great opportunity yesterday but everything is still there for the taking. If we can beat Dallas and NY and finish at least 10-6 then we have a decent shot at winning this divsion.

I just think it is a relief knowing we don't have to worry about Philly anymore. I got so sick of watching that team win for what the last 5 years or so. It is great day knowing the eagles are just about buried.

Yeah I know it won't come easy to beat either one of them. But i think the table is set pretty well for us. If we can beat the Giants and Dallas at home then our chances look pretty good at taking this thing. The first half schedule was brutal and hopefully we can take advantage of this schedule.

lets take a moment and be silient to officially pronounce the death of the eagles.

it has been 4 LONG ASS YEARS that they have owned us and now it is over

Thanks.

well Dallas fans are probably feeling the way we felt after we did to them what they did to the Eagles.
