Now who thinks we're winning 9+ games...?

You are correct to a point Mattyk72, but our inability to perform offensively has been the problem now for several seasons & no one has resolved this yet.

I'm just tired of watching poor execution & pathetic production. An offense begins with a stable line & it's abvious that our o-line is not stable. With Jansen things would have been much better, but I'm not sure that it would have constituted into 10 wins...?

This team just needs time, like all great teams this year they are built with time & not in 1 season with a great coach fresh out of retirement.

I just hope Gibbs stays for 4 years....

Very good comment on the O-line. We have, arguably one of the best O-line coaches ever. With Brunell in there, Jansen's absence is a huge weakness for us.

We don't have O-linemen who play with any attitude, though. Buges tried to fire them up for the year by giving them the name Dirtbags, but they're not living up to that smashmouth name. Randy Thomas is smashmouth, and he's the only one on the line with any attitude. What good are Dockery's 340 pounds if he's as tame as a blind man's labrador. Samuels? Yea, he's pass blocking a lot better this year, but he's not tearing it up like Ogden. I suspect Mark Wilson has more attitude than Kenyatta & Ray - put him in at RT.

Jamaican'Skin:
No doubt we will win a ton in the upcoming year. Our defense is strong even without Lavar, Barrow... I never said we wouldn't win more than 9 games in two seasons but I know we won't win less!!!

I could still see us winning 8 games, just because or defense is rediculous. Our offense couldnt score a touchdown on a Varisty Football Team. No points = No wins. If somehow we just start clicking on offense, which I doubt is going to happen, I think anythings possible. Right now, with our offense, I'll be happy with 2 wins, cause thats all we deserve if we play like that.

Remember this: In '98, the Skins started 0-7 and ended up 7-9 (I think)....and won the division the following year. And we all remember starting 0-5 and finishing 8-8 under Marty. Hall Of Fame coach Joe Gibbs is better than both Marty and Norv, so 9 or 10 wins are still possible. Yeah, at this point, 7-9 or 8-8 is more of a realistic thought, but I'm still hoping....

Yeah I still say 8-8 maybe 7-9...which isn't that bad...Gibbs went 7-9 before...he's been 8-8 before too...Schottenheimer was 8-8 in his first (and stupidly only) year here.

The Skins need that one big play, like the LaVar INT return for a touchdown against Carolina in 2001

If one of those interceptions yesterday had been returned for a TD that would have been huge.

I really wanted to make the playoffs this year more than anything. Honestly all I can hope for now, is for us to hit that stride and start winning alot of football games and be at least respectable. How you finsih one season, defintley carries over to your play the next season.
