We got into this discussion last week with thread on how this team would most likely get to 11-5 if they were able to reach that record. Now we're projecting differently, as I think most (but not all) who believed we could get to 11-5 had us beating Dallas.

Regardless, my own opinion is that it is virtually impossible to predict a record for the Redskins, because this is truly a one-game-at-a-time team. The fact is that every game they play is close. After 10 games, they've scored 181 points and given up 182. They have proven that they cannot be blown out even if they are outplayed, but also cannot win without a nail-biter of a game. Seriously, given the way this team plays, I don't think a single game remaining on their schedule--even possibly the Giants game--can be guaranteed as a win or a loss.

By the way, if it hasn't already been posted, Yahoo sports is currently running a front page story on the Redskins' recent struggles.
