I'm waking up today pinching myself. 2 big wins in 5 days and we're right back in the hunt. Just gotta keep it going. At the very least, we appear to be salvaging what seemed to be a lost season just a few weeks ago. Hats off to the players and the coaches, they're not giving up.
It's amazing that literally 7 days ago we were debating firing the coach, starting over, how untalented the roster was, how hope was lost and now it's unbridled enthusiasm.
I had a strange feeling watching the game Sunday and again yesterday. Optimism. It seemed that we had the younger, faster, more physical football team on the field for the first time in seemingly ages. That 2nd quarter was magical, simply put. Even in the midst of the comeback, I felt confident we would make the plays to win. It's been forever, probably since '91, that I felt that confident that we would do what we needed in order to close out a big win. The future is indeed bright in Redskins-land.
