[QUOTE=NC_Skins;974016]Maybe I should redirect the focus here to the penalties since I think these are causing us the 3rd and long situations that we are having problems converting.[/QUOTE]

The bottom line is why are you focusing on the offense at all? I think it is humming along just fine.

[quote=Skinzman;974017]Well, scoring 18-20 a game when others dropped 30 on us got us to 5-11 or 6-12. Scoring the 30 has us at 7-6 and in the playoff hunt with 3 more games to play. Scoring 30 clearly means something when our defense is as bad as it is.[/quote]

What? That's the point. If we're dropping 30 and the other team drops 31. What does that mean? Not only that the defense blows but the little things on the offensive side of the ball count as well.

You think leading the league in penalties is "humming along just fine"? Sure, it is when you are winning. How about that stretch when we played...


Giants
Steelers
Panthers

...yeah...

[quote=NC_Skins;974021]Let's be honest here. We are 2 lucky fumbles away from being 5-8 right now. How often are you going to have a ball bounce like it did to Morgan for a score? Six more inches on the Paul recovery and the Ravens seal that game. Luck has played a huge part in use being 7-6. Mind you, skill, talent, and coaching put them in the position to be here.[/quote]

That can be said for a fair amount of teams actually. Plus, we are a couple of bounces or a controlling of a temper or two from being 9-4. The replacement refs make a good call and we are tied with Seattle. That entire argument can go both ways and doesnt prove much of anything. You are what your record says you are.

Your rite our offense sucks. Were lucky to be where were at. Because lucky bounces (like the one in the first quarter of sundays game for instance - never ever go the other way). Come on man!

You said that scoring 30 doesnt matter if the other teams score a lot on us. I say scoring 30 matters regardless of whether the defense sucks or not. A good offense will bring more wins than a bad one. So yes, scoring 30 matters, even if you lose some while doing so.

You are clearly the only other person on here rite now who is not half in the bag. Lmao.

I consider being ranked in the top 1-3 of almost every offensive category and 7 in points scored HUMMING along - yes. Absolutely. Also you do realize that the defense is responsible for some flags too rite? After 20 year of almost pure unadulterated trash on offense we are suddenly one of the best youngest and brightest offenses in the league.

Well ... 3rd down conversions are about sustaining drives and eating clock.

Don't get me wrong... I love the quick strike nature of our offense. At the same time a long drive or three keeps our D off the field and that's got to be a good thing.

Sometimes I don't even know why I bother. They take something you say, twist it into something it's not and completely miss the point.

We've had a few bounces go against us as well. Those things tend to even themselves out so no I don't think luck has played a huge part in our record.

So you did not say our offense is not humming along?
Just like this morning you didnt say that we were all giving up except for you.
Just like you didnt say you cant see the sun set on the east coast?
I suppose you didnt say we are lucky to be 7-6 either?
Im seeing a pattern here.
Nobody is twisting anything. I asked why all this negativity about our offense when we are in the midst of a four game win streak against big time opponents and our offense is one of the top in the league? Have third and longs been an issue? Sure. Is it losing games for us and do you need to harp on it all day? No.
Edit: it is your rite to do so in an open forum but you should know its going to draw rebuttle rite?

Re: Ravens at Redskins Post Game Thread (RG3 MRI Result-Sprained Knee)
 

Everyday base in the NFL can bring some negative out of all o the countless stats and complain.

We are 7-6. Period. We do have a path to win the division.

We win our final three. The Giants win this week against Atlanta, lose at Baltimore, and beat Philly. Bang NFC east crown. 3-6 to that. That would be amazing. All of the bad things we do wrong I could care less about right now. As long as we keep winning I am happy.

10-6 I believe will also get the Giants in as they or us or someone else will jump the Bears. They are on a downward spiral and I believe will finish with either a 10-6 record or worse. The Pack will beat them whenever they play them I the coming weeks.

Two weeks ago i thought a wildcard was out of the question. Thank you Chi-town.
