A loss is a loss but getting hammered is much different then being in the game and having a chance at the end.
If we were 1-4 and getting trounced I think we would have an even worse view of things right now.
Exactly. Look at Carolina: In 2002 they lost a lot of close games and went 7-9 (I think), and last year, they found a way to win most of the close ones and went to the SB. As soon as the Skins find a way to win the close games, they will be on the right track....not to mention the fact that they have been beating themselves more than actually getting beat by the other teams...
All of the best teams find a way to "win ugly" when needed....look at the Pats. Gibbs WILL get us there....hopefully sooner rather than later!
Oh, and for the division record: 3-3 I think the Eagles peaked too early and will be much more vulnerable later in the year....just when our offense is really getting going.
