I read this article this morning and I just thought it confirmed the media bias against the Skins. We've got to go out and beat the crap out of the 49ers before anyone starts giving us any credit, all the talk about the Cowboys-Seattle game being for supremacy in the NFC doesn't take into account that we beat both of those teams! I think most of these guys wrote the Skins, Brunell and Gibbs off at the beginning of the year and are afraid to change course now.

In the end, it doesn't matter. I would like to see Santana Moss get more pub, I'd like to see Brunell get the respect that Bledsoe was getting in Dallas, and I'd like to see all those who said the game has passed Gibbs by come out and make a full retraction. But none of those things help you win football games and at the end of the day I know that we're a better football team than the so-called analysts give us credit for. As long as we keep winning games I don't care if they "rank" us 32nd. I don't want us to be paper champs and I'd rather us get slighted than to lose any of the edge and focus that has brought us this far. Not that Gibbs will allow anyone to become complacent, but I just really how we're playing right now especially considering we've still got room for improvement (red zone scoring, David Patten, and getting Portis free for those big runs we know he is capable of).
