I'm Done Watching The Skins This Year

i hope you are joking, i am not gonna question your fan(ness???,) because no way anyone on this site is not a fan, we have been a suckass team for some time now and we all stick with this team so don't worry about me saying you are a fair weather fan but why not just watch the games without playoffs in mind and enjoy, sit back. I wish i could do that, just not care and sit back but i just can't, i prolong my devistation as we are still statistically in it. Had we been out I could just give up and enjoy but being in it makes me have hope, just like all the other years, and that hope has always been broken.

Last year same f'n situation, we are in it(maybe) if we win out our last 5, no garantees but the way things are shaping out it seems as if we have a GREAT chance as long as we win out, we have 3 division games, 2 at home! and we must win it all. which two games do we lose, the two division games at home, in heart breakers and had we won them we would be in the playoffs. week 15 i gave up hope, it was in the middle of the cowboys game and we still had a shot with 7 wins, remember?, as long as TB won, they didn't they lost and that broke the season, i was devistated even though we had such a little shot. I said on the phone to vishskins "ok we are gonna beat dallas and i won't be too upset " and in that sentence the bomb to crayton goes up and i fell into a bigger whole of sadness. Maybe you should stop watching because that was one of my lowest points in my redskins history.

I hope we don't repeat that again, PLEASE DONT REPEAT THAT AGAIN. Some people, regardless of if they are die hard or just semi-fans, can say oh, oh well there is always NEXT YEAR, we will do what we have to in the offseason. I just can't do that, some people just can't do that, i can't sit down and not watch a game if we have a chance. We have a chance. We have to win 5 in a row, the bears are on a what 7 game streak the vikings on a 4 game streak, we can do it and there is still a fighting chance

we still have a shot and 2 easier teams coming up... our schedule is really harsh, but we've figured out how to score in the red zone (unlike last year), but we still can't get 3rd and 2 on the ground. TE passes are the only reliable short yardage play we've got. We need to get that fixed,

if we win only 9 games and one of those being the cowboys we will still have a chance to make the playoffs, in other words if we only lose the giants. ONLY IF

1. Cowboys lose giants, us and carolina(very possible, also KC is in there)--they go 9-7 and we have tie breaker!!!!

2. Falcons 3 losses to @Bears @Tampa @Carolina or Carolina---they go 9-7 and we have a better conference record!!!!

3. Vikings lose 2 to @Lions, Rams, @Ravens, Steelers or Bears---they go 9-7 we win tie breaker

4. Eagles lose to us-- we win tie breaker at 9-7

5. Rams lose to us-- we win tie breaker at 9-7


If all those things happen we make playoffs at 9-7 if we only lose to the Giants. If we lose to the boyz boyz can win out exept for the skins game and giants have to lose to philly and washington and we win tiebreaker or they could lose to KC or @ Oakland

EXTREMELY UNPROBABLE, i say if we only lose to the gints we have a 20% shot

we still have a shot.true fans will not give up until all hope is gone.anyone calling it quits on the season now,good riddance,we dont want you no how

we still have a shot.true fans will not give up until all hope is gone.anyone calling it quits on the season now,good riddance,we dont want you no howmeh some people just are "realists", some can't give up unless there is absolutly no statistical chance left, i think both are fans just different personalities

we still have a shot.true fans will not give up until all hope is gone.anyone calling it quits on the season now,good riddance,we dont want you no how


Honestly, I'm one of the guys who is right on the border, I still think we can be 7-6 in two weeks and being seriously talking about playoff scenerios. I'll still watch the team no matter what, but I dont really care if people would rather do somthing else on a Sunday. Thats their personal choice, and honestly, if I didnt have the Sunday Ticket, I dont know if i'd go out of my way to watch this team until I knew they were gonna play a complete game. If someone is sick of getting their heart ripped out every week, i dont really blame em. Like BSB said, theres no way you're on this site and not a true fan. Not after the last 14 years.

I'm NOT done watching the skins this year!
Every one that is or that has given up, please join the colts website now!
Colts are 11-0. Perfect to jump on a bandwagon.
For me I'm happy Gibbs is back and happy that in all but 1 of our 6 losses we've been in the game and made it competitive. Sure you can complain about the 4th Q offensive points or the refs, but can't people see? We're so much closer than we've been since he left. We have consistancy for the FIRST time in almost 15 yrs! We can play with ANY team (but the Giants so far!) Let's not give up on Gibbs, the Redskins or the future. Gibbs is no dummy. Sure he's not in the Superbowl on his second season, well not yet (even though remote, it's stilll a possibility). But he's made leaps and bounds in his second year. We are as true as a team can be in 2005 in the world of TO's and such. Keep the faith and GO SKINS!!!

Agree, you are in field goal range and you tackle the guy from behind..nothing to do with heart, just dumb. Team needs to learn how to finish off teams at the end.

Hey Folks - Cheer up, it ain't over yet. The Giants and Cowboys did us a big favor in losing and believe it or not the Skins are still in the hunt for the NFC east!!!!! One game at a time.

Btw - Living in San Diego now, it was tough to watch that game .... I almost skipped it cause I didn't know who the hell to yell for. I definitely didn't see any lack of heart by the Skins. They have all the fight in the world, and the Defense never, ever gives up. The offense still needs work though.
