I wanted to eat my crow about predicting 7-9 for the Redskins. At 6-3 I was thinking I would have to eat a whole flock. Unfortunately now I think they will finish 8-8 and missing by one isn't deserving of needing to eat crow.

I though 8-8 or 9-7 so its pretty much going that way, Even with Colt we should win 2 more at least. But Playoffs I just cant see happening unless we get lucky and carolina and seattle both finish 8-8 too.

I don't know, Philly is probably more beat up than we are. We can split with them at least.

Colt would have to play a perfect game to win on the road in Philly on Monday Night. Not all on him either, Jay (I cant win a PT game) Gruden would have to be near perfect as well. Dallas is most likely losing to NO so Philly will be fired up to tie for first place with 4 games left. The odds are not in our favor.

Can you explain that grading system in 30 words or less or have a link that explains it? Back a long time ago in a land far, far away when I was a college D3 linebacker with a football I.Q. of zero the coaches broke down grading for defenders into 4 segments. They were all pass and fail so you either scored a 0, 25, 50, 100 on a play. If you lined up wrong and had a wrong initial reaction the best you could do on any given play was a 50 out of 100, even if you had a strip sack or interception. Crazy that kids these days don't realize how tough it was back in the day, ha,ha,ha.

We still can split with them. Jags are hot garbage, Giants are beatable. @ Eagles and @ Titans will be toughest games finish with Eagles at home.

These are Pro Football Focus Grades that are all based game by game and position by position. Every defensive/offensive and ST's category is reviewed and graded by snap by snap basis. 0-100 grade system.

Clearly you didn't watch the Eagles and Giants. Both of those teams are hot garbage. We should have a good chance against the Eagles.

I didn't but I believe in Wentz more than Colt in a close game on MNF. I hope we win but not betting on it

Re: Dallas postgame
 

Optimistic we can finish 3-2 (split with Philly, beat Jax and NY), at 9-7 we'll be in good position for a WC at least and possibly still the division. Sure would be nice to get Thompson back.

Eagles are down their top 3 corners and couldn't stop Saquon until the Giants inexplicably stopped giving him the ball.

Re: Dallas postgame
 

It was also the most penalty flags thrown in one game that I can remember seeing. Both teams incredibly undisciplined.

I included the blowout loss (a 10 point loss would be a miracle, I see a repeat of the NO game). But unless we lose to either the Giants or the Jags we need to either beat Philly or Tennesse to get in.

We will be a playoff team, most likely, just not a very good one.

Pat Shurmur's way of telling Eli show me why I need you. Obviously Eli didn't make the case.
