You B-A-R-E-L-Y won that game. I watched it. Had the vikings been quarterbacked by a legit NFL qb, your defense was toast.

Maybe, but the Vikes really do not have a legit #1 WR to complement a QB either. They have a very good 2 headed running attack, and a stout run defense.
Now I am unclear as to the definition of "barely won" is it a 10 point spread? 14? 21? I would not say Dallas barely won, they beat a lesser opponent they were supposed to beat. (BTW the spread at gametime was 9.5, and Dallas covered, I am not so sure that Washington even covered.) "Barely" is such a relative term. But one would have to classify a 2 point difference as barely, expecially since it was very close to a Cardinals upset.
Not to mention after this week the Redskins will be 4-3 and Dallas 6-1 and a 2 game lead in the division with 9 games to go.
If you don't believe me just ask Joe Gibbs. And I quote:

The Washington Redskins had barely enough offense to beat the Arizona Cardinals. That kind of output won't do next week against the juggernaut otherwise known as the New England Patriots.
"We'll probably be the biggest underdog in the history of sports," coach Joe Gibbs said Monday. "Has anything held up against them? Do you have a game plan that will work against them? If you do, leave it here. Because I don't think anybody else has got one right now. We're going to struggle hard." |
