Redskins vs. Eagles round II game thread

Of course everyone wants to beat Dallas and make the playoffs, but we have all the intangibles against us. All of the folks in here are making valid points about different aspects as to why this team is failing. Coaching and discipline is in question. More importantly, their heart is coming into question. The injuries alone by themselves would be enough to bury most teams. To be a playoff team you need to beat the teams you are supposed to beat. We barely did it against the lowly Jets and got spanked in the end by the Eagles. OF course every Sunday is different and nothing is written in stone til the game is played, but I just think the tide of recent events is going against us bigtime

well the eagles bitch slapped the skins so hard today,all their grandkids are gonna come out the womb rehabilated.i can't believe they let that piss poor team beat them!what a bunch of bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Oh yeah and Gus - Minnesota will be a tough game and a probably loss?
AP just went down with an injury, they just got blanked by Green Bay.
Without All-Day is Brooks Bollinger gonna tear us a new one?
I'm looking at that game as a W.


How serious is his injury? If it is not an ACL tear type thing or broken leg he should be ready to go against us in December. The attrition rate of our team is horrid, so you might have us lose a few more players also.

And for all the Thrash haters on here, how bout now??? He's one of the hardest working guys on the team!

Yeah, I have been dogging thrash all season, but I have to admit, he looked good. He doesn't create good separation, lack of speed I guess, but he makes good routes and has reliable hands.
Hopefully he won't be out for long.

Is it not being a fan that allows us to BELIEVE these things can happen?
Cowboys game is not a gimme for them, we had the Giants on the ropes and let them off the hook - if we have aspirations of being a good to great team we need to be able to beat the likes of the Cowboys/Giants, not just the Dolphins/Lions.
This team is a lot closer than a lot of people would have you believe, we may have lost today but we saw progression in the passing game, Portis is hitting form just when we need him - we MAY lose to the Cowboys, but we MAY win and it'll be a cold day in hell before I say we WILL lose to them!!!!

Damn straight...good post.

Damn straight...good post.

it's been pretty friggin' cold up here last week,and supposed to get colder next week.
face it,we have as much of a chance to beat dallas in dallas,as we did new england!i hate those jamfs worse than anybody,but the truth is we are gonna get lambasted next week.

Theres no way we can make the playoffs playing like this. I just wish we could put teams away.



That is why we are in such dire straights!!!!!

there should be a separate thread, but what the hell is wrong with the defense??? they lost the game today... the offense has overcome alot of things to put a couple of games together and start to meld together, and our D gives up over 30 at home to a struggling 3n win team???

Injuries and the ever lack of a pass rush have done them in finally

Yeah this is the first game that our defense lost for us. I thought our offense looked great.
