I really like that the players are sticking up for RG3. I'm sure that it will help him. Desean Jackson may be the best free agent acquisition I have seen the Redskins get.

I hope this helps Roberts confidence and translates into him playing well and leading this team to some W's.

Fed Ex is not a home field advantage so I could see us losing this game.

If an average team like this can go into the home of one of the NFL's best teams and take care of business I don't think home field advantage should matter. Only way we lose this game is if things hit rock bottom over the bye, I honestly don't feel like this game should be close.

We just lost to a team with a rookie QB, with no wr's, no TE and no rb. I think this will be a close game that can go either way. But I hope you're right, a Jacksonville type of game would be nice.

None...

For all the doubters, these team is at it's healthiest since week week 1 (missing Orakpo and Hall). Got Bowen, Thomas and Hankerson back. If they play D and RGIII starts to play like his old self, I say
Watch out. They are not as bad a team as some of you claim.

Thomas really hasnt proven anything, but hopefully he does. We could certainly use a boost in the secondary. I am a huge fan of Hank because he is a Hurriskin, but Lets be honest he hasnt exactly set the world on fire. Many even questioned his making the team in the offseason.
I dont know, maybe my koolaid is just old, but even if we blow the barn doors off of TB I see 2-4 more "winnable" (a close relative of "losable"), games left on our schedule imo. Leaving us at best 7-9.
I really just want to know that we have a QB, and a HC that I can rely on going into next year. We have cap room, and our full compliment of draft picks to add some oline/defense in the offseason. This upcoming free agency/draft is one of the more crucial in recent history imo.

Yup. We're better than some think.

Then again, sadly it is often safer to presume the worst and then be pleasantly surprised.

Yes, I think you are correct.....let's just throw in the towel now....probably cannot win
Maybe we just just turn tail and....rabbit now!
F...THAT! That's why they play the games.....
HTTR!

Re: Expectations for the rest of the season...
 

It's the NFL. We have 7 winnable games left on the schedule.

Re: Expectations for the rest of the season...
 

I can acceptt losing to a bum ass team like the Bucs......but I can't accept the Redskins not showing up to play.

Uh-oh...
