BUT
Could we be getting a little overwhelmed with all the emotion that this victory gave us? What I'm afraid of is another unrealistic view of the skins, much like what we had before Gibb's first game last year. This site had a ton 10-6 predictions - based purely on emotion.
I still see a team that is 28th in scoring, a team that has only scored two touchdowns in 2 games, and team that commits way to many penalties, and turnovers.
I also see a team that showed crazy guts and resolve, a team that would have NO DOUBT lost this game last year. Those two passes to Moss were gutsy calls, perfectly executed, and by no means a freaking miracle. We took that game away.
I'm just real confused, there is no doubt I am still glowing from our win, but I'm wondering now about Seattle and if we are as good as we think we are?
For the first 55 min of that game I thought the skins were done, season in jeopardy, and then 5 min later I'm thinking playoffs, is that crazy?
thoughts?

You are definately on your game
I agree with most, but I see a BIG corner turned. I see A serviceable QB, hopefully embarking on a renaissance in his career. I see recievers who understand, it is important to get the ball and actually score without having three attorneys and a contract renegotiation take place in the process. I see Joe bashers silenced (at least temporarily) with the clarity of his recent, and offseason decisions coming to fruition on Monday. I see the major components of a competative team in place. I see them coming together to overcome, at times, when they may not have the talent to do so. I see a framework in place which will have the skins winning for years to come!!!!!!!!!! Kumbaya my lord, Kumbaya...........I have a dream..................maybe next post
