Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I think whats going to define our season is if our passing game can make enough plays -- That depends on Moss's hamstring, Campbell's arm, and maybe a rookie (Thomas, Davis, Kelly) to step up as a consistent receiver...

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

Well overall I'm impressed so many have put this one to rest. Not like this is my first rodeo - been all Redskin since '91. Just some games really mess w/ me. Like I said, NE was last year's.

... St. Louis in '06, mostly from the Betts fumble when he was running like a pro-bowler.

...playoff loss to Seattle in '05.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

The Steelers game stings worse this weekend because the Falcons won and now are tied with us in the wild card race, and the Colts showed that the Steelers D is vulnerable.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I'm definitely over it, and ready for bigger and better things. We had a bad game... they dominated us (fans outdid us as well too ) but I'm ready for this cowgirls game.

WE WILL DOMINATE THEM!
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAWRR.

Let it go Goat...let it go. I'm definitely concerned about our long passing game, but we knew we'd lose a few. If even ONE of the 3 step up, (Thomas, Kelly, Davis) we should be alright. I HATED losing to Pittsburgh, but the show goes on. If we go deep into the playoffs it won't even matter. The past scares me but we have new leadership and hopefully a new destiny.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I was over it the next day - I'll be far more concerned if we lose to Dallas. If we're gonna lose, better to lose out of division. Regarding the rookie receiving weapons, I've all but given up on Thomas or Kelly contributing this season. Thomas can't seem to get on the same page with Campbell (running poor routes) and Kelly can't get on the field. Meanwhile, Desean Jackson and Eddie Royal continue to look GREAT in the WCO. I'm holding out hope for Davis, who I believe could add a lot to this offense in Yoder's spot.

It's not just the dirty birds - the NFC south is shaping up to be the NFC east of '07. Carolina is 7-2 and TB and Atlanta are 6-3. Both TB and Atlanta have easy, easy schedules ahead. I won't be surprised if they both end the season 12-4 or 11-5.

The panthers schedule is a cakewalk outside the Giants and possibly TB, but expect Carolina to finish out 13-3 and win the division.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I'm past the Steelers game in that I'm not crying over the loss. I am a bit nervous though about our offense, which hasn't looked very good over the past month. In the wins against the Lions and Browns and the losses against the Rams and Steelers, our offense has looked out of sync. We've put together decent drives and have run the ball very well, but we haven't put up the points that I would expect to see from a top 10 offense (which is what we are in terms of yardage). If our offense has another poor outing next week, I'll be pretty concerned.

On a brighter note, our defense has looked quite good. I must say, I am very surprised and impressed with what Blache has done with our defense. It's not a world class defense, but it's one that's good enough to win games.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

We have looked out of sync. Maybe we can fix that during the break. I know the coaches are going to study film and find out what works, what does'nt, and why.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I hope the team doesn't forget the Steelers game, b/c they need to improve big time. The Cowboys are going to be desperate, and now that the Iggles lost, they are too going to be desperate for a win. The Giants are for real, I have been criticizing them for having a weak schedule, but they have beaten the Steelers (who whopped on us) and they just beat Philly at their home. The Giants control their own destiny now, our team on the other hand needs to play flawless football and catch a few breaks (i.e. Giants losing). If we keep playing mediocre football, we are either going to end up again in 6th place in the playoff bracket or even worst, not make them at all.

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

I am more upset about the loss to the RAMS than I am about the loss to the Steelers. The steelers loss doesn't have an immediate impact on the playoff chase. They are an AFC team, the loss to the RAMS has worse implications to our playoff chase. But what is done is done, now we need to beat the hell out of a reeling dallas team!!

Re: Are you past the Steelers Game?

We need to get healthy soon. Without Moss 100% we are not a good offensive team period. The Dallas game is now a must win for the most part. Philly lost tonight and Dallas might be due for a win on Sunday night. A loss to Dallas puts us at their level in the division, and would give the Gmen a huge advantage in winning the division crown. Also, a loss would put us a game back in the wildcard race with the teams from the NFC South. Tampa Bay and Atlanta both have the same record as us and will surely pass us for the wildcard spots if we end up 9-7. Both Atlanta and TB are playing good sound ball on both sides. Ryan is looking like the real deal!
