the playoff hunt...

jsarno · 12-07-2007, 12:58 AM

We're 6-7, and have 3 teams above us.
Detroit 6-6, we have the tie breaker vs them, and they play Dallas.
Minnesota 6-6, we play them soon, and they play SF.
Arizona 6-6, we have the tie breaker vs them, and they play seattle.

It's very possible we will see ourselves behind only Minnesota after this week, and in two weeks we will face them which could be the key to the last playoff spot. Either way we look at this, we are still very much in the playoff picture.

IF we can beat the Giants....I like our chances....I like them ALOT!

hurrykaine · 12-07-2007, 01:09 AM

Sorry to rain in on this parade, but we'll get spanked by the Giants, and the pain will all be over...real soon.

hey...stranger things have happened...never know

IT would be a true miracle for the skins to make the playoffs but if 8-8 is alive I like the chances

hooskins · 12-07-2007, 01:12 AM

Basically we need to win out. I think the most important question, besides the Giants game is will the Cowboys play starters in the last game?

Huh? The Giants are going to get a battle tested Redskin team in ten days. We have been in almost every game this season.

win out or go home.

Time to get the Todd Collins train rolling baby. Warm up the "Collins Caravan", and let's get this party started baby!

I don't like our chances... and I think we finish 8-8, but if we win out that would be awesome.

skinsfaninok · 12-07-2007, 01:28 AM

If we win out we are a lock 4 sure! I just hope JC is ok

SouperMeister · 12-07-2007, 09:25 AM

Last night was further evidence that this team is not built to play grind it out "Redskins Football". The sooner Gibbs recognizes this and allows Saunders to continue running the more aggressive KC style offense we saw in the 2nd half last night, the better our chances will be.

BrunellMVP? · 12-07-2007, 09:44 AM

i'd agree, win out or go home...a scenario that looks less likely with JC down. I know Collins played well, but its one thing to come in a game for an injured QB and catch the Defense off guard, but its another thing to play that well against a team that has game planned for you all week- just ask A.J. Feely.

sandtrapjack · 12-07-2007, 11:10 AM

All I know is the Redskins traditionally can be a very SCARY team in December. Somehow that train just seems to start rolling.

dmek25 · 12-07-2007, 11:13 AM

get on the bus. the giants don't scare me at all. the vikings starting quarterback is who? and the cowboys will not be playing any of their starters against the skins

jsarno · 12-07-2007, 11:41 AM

We can do this people. The Giants CAN be beat...and in case you haven't noticed, they haven't exactly played well. I don't think we will lose twice to them this season. Then we'll have Minnesota and will NEED to stop the run. If we do that, we will WILL be in the playoffs.

Minnesota could really end up being our playoff game.

Let's focus on the Giants first.
