Time to move the F on, let's talk about the Lions

As a show of faith im starting Kelly this week on my fantasy team :)
dont let me down MK

Pointing out that last season, we put 25 on the Lions...and Samuels didn't play.

We gave up two TDs, but Horton didn't play either.

Hopefully this young lady won't be there! Look out Skin's fans!

They are a better team this year tho' don't you think Tripp? Being in their media area, I imagine you hear more about their progress than the national media does.

The water mark for the Redskins is 21 points. If the Skins score more than 21 points, chances are they win. If they score less than 21 points, most likely it's a lost. Red Zone offense is still a work in progress.

Redskins 23
Lions 17

this is exactly it- its virtually a lose lose situation...yet the skins organization put themselves in this position. They price, market and sell themselves as an ELITE team with ELITE talent. Why is it unreasonable for us (as fans) to expect to see elite results? For over a decade now, they've paraded mediocre team after mediocre team in front of us all while trumpeting the same song and dance "we have the talent! we just need to execute!" When is enough, enough? when will it be acceptable for fans to demand progress? Do you get what I'm saying? Its not that we aren't patient, its just that after a decade of treading water, we are tired- how long before we drown?

They are a young team. One of these days, they'll wake up and be a much improved team. If they are similar to the Falcons, that could be this week. If they are more like the Chiefs, then that will be next year.

Well duh, isn't that what all teams do? What are they supposed to do? Draft horrible players and then go "hey, we're a horrible team, come cheer us on"

I don't think anyone has ever pegged us as "elite". Fans or otherwise. We have the potential to be good as soon as we work out the kinks in the system. How long will that take? Well. 18 years apparently. I think everyone is frustrated and wants to win. Including the players.
