So now everyone is saying the Redskins aren't good and will lose the rest of their games. Your own argument that they can't win proves they can win... Let's see what they do on the field...

I live in LA and traveled to DC to see them smack around the 49ers and I'll be in AZ to see them smack around Warner and the Cards (I hope) I was even planning to get the WE WANT DALLAS chant started but things look bleak...BUT I have another playoff possibility...that may be a bit easier...here goes
FIRST - WE NEED TO RUN THE TABLE AND HIT 10 - 6
SECOND - The Giants need to Blow 3 games (including against us in DC)
THIRD - The Cowboys need to Blow 2 games (including against us in DC)
That would give the Cowboys a record of 10 - 6 (we would have the season sweep and the tie breaker) The Giants would then go 9-7 (that gives us a game on them, and we could forget that nasty 36-0 thing) and by that scenario we take the division, and move into the playoffs as a division winner and we don't have to worry about the wildcard stuff that is much harder to come by with teams like the Vikings still in after a 4 game winning streak....That the deal I'm hoping for. HAIL REDSKINS!!!!!!!!!

We dont even need Giants to blow 3 if we win out, just lose to dallas and us then we have better div record. Oh yeah welcome...ill be in Tempe as well, vs Cardinals, behind skins bench....Ill chant with you!!!

if we win out we should be able to win the division, and only need the giants and cowboys to lose one more game besides to us

I hope they can....but it's hard to believe in a team that keeps losing week after week.....

I will be sitting in the endzone with a group of at least 50 from XtremeRedskins.com...so if we get the chant started join in!!!! I even have a shirt I bought at Fed Ex Field that says on the front "The Rivalry Returns" and on the back the Redskins logo and under that "WE WANT DALLAS" This will be the third time I've gone to see the skin in Arizona...I'm 0-2 right now we lost in 98 with Trent Green and again in 2000 with Brad Johnson...We'll change that wil Brunell...hey e-mail me maybe I can say hello before I head to my seats dlwredskins@yahoo.com.
BTW I will be with a Buddy oddly enough he's a Charger Fan....but he's been instructed no cheering for anyone except the Redskins at the game. Thanks for the welcome!!!! HAIL REDSKINS!!!

our scheduel down the stretch is pretty favorable, with our hardest games (giants, cowboys) coming at home i still have faith until we are officially eliminated!

Thank you for your congrats on me making it to the second grade...lol thanks for the Welcome, and I see you have the Brunell Bandwagon name...well love Brunell wanted him from the Jags for a long time...The Jags were my DISTANT second team because of him.

[celts32]

I would be thrilled to go 9-7 even if they don't make the playoffs.

It's not over til it over is what I say...we all remember week two against Dallas we were DONE and then...the BOMBS started raining down!!!!!!!!!!so it's not over!!!!We'll take down the Cowboys, the Giants game was a fluke they will be slaughtered, and Philly, AZ and STL should be easy.... BTW I only said the Giants should be a game behind us because it would be a split, but that 36 -0 fluke can come back to haunt us before we get to the division games tiebreaker...at any rate it's not over, but I'm a litte worried. But I'm not giving up on the boys and we are suppose to be the best fans in the largest stadium in the league so I personally feel no one should be writing us off if you are a skins fan, no matter how bad it looks.

I think it would, but lets just try to get to the next game first

I really think that we need to go 10-6 to win this. I think either the Giants or Cowboys will win the division, and most likely one of these teams will end up at either 10-6 or 9-7. However, there are a lot of other tough teams in the NFC that I believe can get up to a 10-6 record for the wild cards (don't know the exact wild card standings right now). The good thing is that if we do finish up at 10-6 we would almost certainly win the tiebreaker with our outstanding NFC record. With 9-7 we would most likely just end up with a crappy draft pick next year, especially considering we don't have a 1st rounder.

Beat the Giants, the Cowboys, and the Eagles and we're in. To think otherwise is just crazy.!


It's that simple folks.

[dmek25]

the fact of the matter is that as easily as we could be 2-9,we could also be 9-2.one play in any of our losses,and they turn into wins.i dont see running the table out of the question.as the old saying goes,winning cures everything.lets start on sunday
