Redskins bye week: A look at special teams - The Insider - The Washington Post

I thought this was a interesting statistic: (The Redskins simply don’t blow out teams; they have won just two of their last 52 games by more than a touchdown.) Gano might be most critical component.

I think 3-1 is a great start and if we beat the eagles next week I'd say we will win 10 games minimum

We have no chance to beat the Eagles. They are the Dream Team.

Lol, can't trust this team though -- games that the Skins should win, we find ways to give it away so hopefully they won't underestimate the Eagles and play to win the whole game.

Wow! I knew we played close games and it always seemed like it would come down to the last play,but just twice in 52 games is unbelievable

I don't really like a week 4 bye

53Fan · 10-08-2011, 07:21 PM

I can see this defense getting better and better as Atogwe and Landry get more playing time together. :headbange

Thank goodness we have a week 5 bye!

Butyeah I agree, I like having our bye in the middle of the season vs. early.

Its like spring break for the NFL.
I wonder if all the Redskins are in Panama City getting drunk on the beach.

I was going to post this in the Cooley thread but I see that got blown up. Oh well the rivalry continues...

Thom Loverro: Redskins-Cowboys rivalry never takes a break | Thom Loverro | NFL | Washington Examiner

"I will never make an apology to any offended Dallas fans, and I expect every Redskin fan to cheer at the folly of a Cowboy," he wrote on his blog, "The Cooley Zone," calling his comments "rivalry igniting." - Cooley

The rivalry has been so dormant between the two teams -- not the fans -- for so long that people aren't used to anyone in either uniform caring enough to ignite it.

There was a time when such comments were standard operating procedure between the Redskins and Cowboys -- and sometimes those comments would result in bizarre on-field incidents.

The difference is those incidents would not go viral.

Speaking of the bye week, how are you guys spending the day tomorrow? It's gonna be gorgeous here in the DC area. I'm gonna go for a run with the wife and probably hit the gym afterwards. My little brother is in town and it's his birthday, so I'm gonna take him out to dinner. Probably won't watch much football until the GB-Atl game at night.
