Denver v. Dallas & NY (Giants) v. Seattle: Don't be scared of optimism!

[skinsguy]

I agree with your assessment D'Boyz. I think this Sunday's game is a must win, but most definitely, our division games are also a must win. Unless there is total collaspe with teams like Carolina, Tampa Bay, or Atlanta, I believe we need to win out in order to be a shoe in for the playoffs.

im not sure,but am i the only one still not sold on eli manning(especially after the last 2 weeks)the redskins need to worry about beating the chargers and then they can watch the scoreboard.

We're not gonna lose 3 in a row. That's a guarantee.

I am not saying we cant win 5 or last six, or go 9-7 but all likely hood that seems a little far fetched. Dallas and NY are playing really good ball right now. and the Giants D is playing as good as anyone in the league right now. Dallas has one of the best D's in the league. The way we are playing right now we wouldn't beat either one of those teams, not to mention San Diego this week. Their Offense is one of the best. Lets put it this way : San Diego, NY, Dallas at home. Detroit , Arizona , St Louis on the road. All of these teams can put points on the board with the best. If our Defense was playing half way decent I would say, Yeah we can win 5 games. But I am not so sure right now. I hate to be the voice of reason, but if we dont win this week, we are all but mathmatically eliminated.

Please stop short of questioning my loyalty to the Redskins, I have heard all this crap too much this year. I love em, always have , always will. I just have been a skins fan too long to start looking for a silver lining. And by the way, the Raiders were suppose to be one of the easy wins that was going to help our record, boy that worked out didn't it. I hope we go on a serious win streak starting with San Diego, but you know Marty is going to have the Chargers ready and willing to run through a wall for him come this sunday.

Obviously you didn't watch the Giants nor the Cowboys games this week because there is no way in hell you think that either team is better than the Redskins. Dallas could not move the ball on a weak Detroit defense and the bitch ass Refs bailed them out on four possessions on third down only to have them score on all four plays after that. Even Parcells spoke about how shitty they played. As for the Giants, Manning will not win another road game this year. He has ony one road win against San Francisco. He has consistenly waited for the fourth quarter to complete a series of passes and at FedEx field he's going to rust alot of passes. The Redskins still are most balanced team on defense and offense. Our defense must stop giving up big plays at the end of the fourth quarter. If this happens we we win easily the next six games.

SUNRA,

I don't think you can put all our woes and losses on the defense. Granted, they have made a fair number of mistakes, particularly with respect to the long ball (as you pointed out). However, they scored more points than our offense last week.

Moreover, our offense has been inconsistent this year. In the Bears, Cowboys, Giants, and Raiders game they looked awful. Against the Broncos, Chiefs, Seahawks, and Eagles they looked decent. Against the Bucs and 49ers they looked real sharp. The way I see it, they've had as many bad days as good ones. We need consistency on both sides of the ball (and the good kind of consistency).

Wow- I agree. We call ourselves fans of the Redskins, so we need to hope to hell that Dallas and New York fall apart and we gain some momentum. I still think we are a playoff team, when we decide to be. You can call me a dipshit at the end of the season, but I think we will be in the playoffs.

Let say they loose and we WIN (HOLY SHIT after reading these some of these posts) That means were only one game back with two shit teams up next,PLUS the division games at HOME vs both DAL and NYG... Im not saying were gonna win all those games but as fans lets at least have a little optimism.

Man i pray your right.. like nostradomus

I can take that bet

[heybigstar]

**** Still bitter that we are not 6-4 or 7-3 **** Anyways, I am going to believe we can win out for the sake that I waited so long for the redskins season to start, might as well be hopeful until we are over.

The key to stopping the pass is getting Cornelius Griffin back in there. If his injury is that bad then, put him on IR and replace him with another veteran. I hope we can get John Abraham.

It's that the first post you read of me to get your opinion or you're just bias for me to be a Cowboy the guy said he wants to bet that your team would win the division, I'm ready to take that bet it's nothing wrong and it's not trash talk or anything I just dissagree with his assesment.

OK

I totally agree. Griff is the key to our passing defense. In fact. he's the key to our entire defense.
