Just to clarify, Berman and Jackson did say it's hard to gauge how good the Skins offense is because the 49ers are a bad team, but they also said Washingtons offense is improving every week, and this game looked like a Division 1 team versus a Division 3 team. They were almost entirely positive when speaking about Washington.

I will then retract my "eat my ass" statement and allow them to continue to suck in peace.

Berman and Jackson did give the Skins some credit, but I thought their tone overall was of reluctant praise.

On a non media bashing note:
Man what quality QB play can do for an offense!
Look at every team in the NFC East. The 3 also rans from last year all have had improved QB play this year and it has shown in their records and stats. The one Superbowl team has probably had decreased play and it has at least shown in their stats. Wtih McNabb hurting they simply aren't nearly as good. The gap is really non-existtent between the Eagles and the field now. I'd be willing to bet the Eagles don't win the division at this point. Every other team is playing too well. At least one of us is going to over take them.

The last time we had QB play this stellar was in '99 when Brad Johnson threw for over 4000 yards and 24 TD, and of course we went to the playoffs.

Brunell is on pace to smash both of those marks.

Great QB play does indeed make a huge difference. Of course there are other things that play into his great performances, the OL, the receivers, the running game and the D. It's a total team effort right now.

i got the same feeling especially from Jackson. I think he's still pissed our skins killed his Broncos in SB 22 and can't seperate that from being a professional analyst.

Yeah - It's almost like they're fighting their guts out.

(You know, just as an aside - I'd hate to be in the trainer's room after a game. Every week he has to put at least one guy's guts back in).

Stats don't lie. The only area that our stats have been deceiving was the 2 losses to KC and Denver. BUT...
The telling stat in those games were our turnovers. That is what lost the game in both cases. Plus some "questionable" calls from the zebras.
I think there's a statue of Gibbs somewhere in Ohio....

Great to see. Man, does it feel good or what, fellas?

Now, like Joe Gibbs--who takes only one night's dinner to celebrate--we need to turn to the real tests of our schedule--the NFC teams, especially those in our division we need to beat to make t to the playoffs. Wow. What a huge game coming up. I'm getting goosebumps already: A classic NFC beast matchup at the hated meadowlands for first place in the best division in football! Wow! Is Gibbs back or what?

BEAT THE GINTS!!!!

JoeRedskin · 10-24-2005, 02:06 PM

If we can beat the Giants in Giant land and just win our home division games, 5-1 in the division. I know the second part is a big "IF", but, boy, wouldn't that be sweeeeettttt!

JoeRedskin · 10-24-2005, 02:07 PM

It's amazing what scoring 52 points makes you think about.

LOL, you can always count on a 'fighting their guts out' comment from Gibbs after a game, win or lose.
