Total flip on offense from last year - we were ranked 3rd on offense based on yards last year ... 3rd WORSE team. I don't think anyone is asking the right questions, instead everyone is asking questions like ... if the redskins are for real or if we're good. The right questions would be : how good we are ? and how much better are we gonna get ?

Everyone (including our own fans) are afraid of those last 2 questions.

Let's just hope we can stay there.

WOW! So much for Gibbs being too conservative eh?

yes, great toy and what does that have to do with the topic. lol!

And, with the exception of SF, most the other defenses are not bad defenses.

With Lavar healthy and on the field the defense could still improve.

LadyT · 10-26-2005, 09:38 AM

Can't get much better than that. I hope we can still fly under the radar, so teams aren't looking our way when we meet them.

I think we're better off when sports writers and others bad-mouth us. Motivates us even more and causes others to dismiss us.

Im still a little worried about our ability to score in the redzone on defenses that aren't at the bottom of the league. However, one big positive I've seen is that every game we've improved, not the inconsistancy one week to another we're used to seeing.

I had no doubts about us getting the offense together this year. It was just a matter of when. We can all look at Gibbs track record. The man is a winner. This was bound to happen. Others fail to remember that Gibbs was the architect of the most prolific offense the NFL had ever seen until Randy Moss came into the league with the Vik's. I can't think of a team that was ranked that high in both offense and defense. Question: Out of the superbowl winning teams. What team had the highest rank offense and defense for that super bowl year.

I agree that it was only time before Gibbs would get our O moving. I would not have expected such a fast rise in such little time. Its amazing how a couple of plays (Moss's catches at Dallas) can turn thing around so quickly. Patten even had some nice catches against the 49er's and if he can keep improving each game watch out.

better stat.....were winning again

This is unbelievable. At the beginning of the year, the Skins couldn't buy a touchdown, now they are ranked #2! The Skins are still not getting any respect from the national press. They have to go and beat the Giants and Eagles and earn respect. They REALLY, REALLY have to make a statement against the G-Women.

skins052bgr8 · 10-26-2005, 12:53 PM

Wow, and we were worried because we did not make a splash that big in the free agent market this year. We have some solid to very good talent, but keeping the bulk of the team together and sacrificing only a few I think reall helped this team being in the system and working together for two years together, and these guys just want to win at the sacrifice of individual stats, but their mentality I have to believe is helping us statistically as well. If we win in a convincing manner this week and we are clicking on all cylinders this should not be close. If we can limit no turnovers and take away two we walk away and the stats will come with it. The win was dominant last week, but the 14 points off turnovers put us way up in all categories to include the score.
