3) We are getting a lot of hype right now.
4) Every year theres a sports weekend or 2, where the NFL teams, and college teams that I root for to win, all lose. If the redskins lose tomorrow it'll complete that dreadful Losing weekend.
5) Redskins haven't been good on MNF in a while and they haven't won at home on MNF since 96. Why would we break the streak tomorrow?

I 100% agree with you but..... the Skins won Thanksgiving Day which is a Prime Time game in front of millions of viewers. Dallas had not lost a Thanksgiving Day game in many of years. The Redskins never won a game on Thanksgiving Day since what 1951 or something?

I feel tides are a turning. The Giants didn't have their best WR on the field the first go around but neither did the Skins (Garcon). Although the Skins have many starters on IR now the team is playing well with what we do have and most of the players that played the first game will be back as opposed to the Giants who might have several players out this go around. With the Skins run game playing well and now Garcon back into the fold with Robinson and Hankerson I think the Giants will have their hands full.

The Skins win this one and there is a 3 way tie for the division....right?

No, WHEN we win this one, we'll be 6-6 with Dallas. New Jersey will still have a slim lead at 7-6.

Not for long.

Their schedule:

Loss to us.
Tough one against the Saints.
Loss on the road in Atlanta
Tough game at Baltimore
Finally a break against the Eagles


The Giants could easily lose 3 of their last 5 games, which will allow us to win the division even if we lose another game.

Our schedule:
WIN vs. Vagiants
Tough game home against Baltimore, could be our one loss
Win in Cleveland
Another blowout in Philly
Clinch at home vs. Cowgirls.

Yes your right. The Giants are 2 games up right now, if we win we are within 1 game tied with Dallas still. If we lose we are 3 games back and 1 game behind Dallas.

I too think the Giants will have a harder end of the season. Ours is not easy because it's mostly division rivals but Dallas can be beat again especially at home and the Eagles were dreadful. I'm worried about the Browns and Ravens but the Ravens are up and down. I'm not as scared about them and have been thinking we might be able to take them now.
