8-8 will almost certainly win the NFC North; and if a team won it at 7-9, I would not be shocked. That's why it MIGHT be a bit early for our trash-talk to be aimed at Mr. Smoot. I would REALLY be shocked if 8-8 or 7-9 would win the NFC East so he is probably still more likely to be on a division winner than any of the Redskins' players are. And division winners go to the playoffs no matter what their record...

The loss of Randy Moss is a big loss in Mnnny.

So is the loss of Matt Birk at center and having to play a rookie at guard next to the back-up center.

And so is the lack of ANY pass rush from the front four in the first two games. Remember how the Skins learned the lesson about what happens when the front four could not rush the passer back when Lionel Daulton and Jermaine Haley and that crowd were pretending to be NFL defensive linemen? Well, that lesson is now being taught to the fans in Minnesota. They'd be no worse off if Jesse "the Body" Ventura suited up and played some DT for them.
