[QUOTE=jsarno;397294]The Redskins have rewarded our faith with an intensely important game in week 17. There have not been many of us that remained faithful and believed in the 07 Skins, but those that have...pat yourselves on the back. You are a solid reason why the Skins have been successful lately. Faith is a powerful thing.
[B]I'm going to take the high road here. I could write a list of people (a long list mind you) that gave up on this team, and some that made threads about our demise, but instead of dwelling on that, I am inviting everyone to enjoy where we are RIGHT NOW[/B]. We have a chance to make the playoffs with only 1 more win. Win and you're in. It doesn't get much better than this. For as corny as this sounds, let's all join together and enjoy this as a whole as only we can do as the best fans on the planet.
I forgo any grudges I have on posters here that have been less than optimistic, and I look forward to ALL OF US enjoying a victory over hated Dallas to get into the playoffs. Who's with me?[/QUOTE]

Nothing says "taking the high road" like a passive-aggressive "I told you so, nah nah nah" thread.

:rolleyes:

Re: For everyone that didn't give up!
 

Well I have said several times in the past weeks how I could not understand how people could come here, post all week, talk about being a big fan, etc... etc... then when we have the "Pick the Winner thread" they pick the other team to win. I just will never get that because I have enough faith even when we are really playing poor that we can win the game.

[quote=saden1;397300]You don't have to name names, everyone knows who they are. I'm not much of a homer so I guess I'm in the list of unfaithful.

Yeah, a 9-7 [I]playoff[/I] team.

That's nothing to be ashamed about. Anything can happen in the playoffs and this team appears to be peaking at the right time.

Didn't the Steelers win the SB as the 6th seed?

That has not been talked about to much (that I have heard or read), this team is getting healthier, peaking at just the right time. I heard the boys on ESPN saying that nobody will want to play the Skins in the first round, as they Hot.
True or not, it made me feel good, and I am damn proud of my Skins regardless of the outcome of the Dallas game.

Re: For everyone that didn't give up!
 

Have you guys ever wondered why teams from lower seeds often make it to the conference championship game if not the Super Bowl? It's often because their teams are having to finish strong just to make it into the playoffs, while the upper seeds usually clinch playoff spots by week 11, and kind of start drifting toward the finish line. In the case of the Redskins, if they can beat Dallas this weekend and make it in, they might have the advantage over the other teams. They are finishing strong and are red hot right now. In fact, everything seems to be working exactly the way it was meant to be. We can probably credit a lot of that to Todd Collins, but the team as a whole appears to have stepped it up a couple of notches.

Back ups or not, can you just imagine what this team will feel like if they dominate Dallas like they did Minnesota?

I hate to say it, but I'm very nervous about this game. Man if we come out flat, we're done. I don't care who Dallas lines up. We've got to set the tone from the kick-off.

Yup, but I can't imagine this team being unprepared. Gibbs and the players know what the rivarly means and that this game will decide our season. But, the Dallas players know that too. I expect a hard-fought battle, not some cakewalk.

I just wish the fact the Dallas will be "resting" some of it's starters never came up. I hope Gibbs is preparing this team like Romo and T.O. will be playing for four quarters.

I'm nervous about it too! Make no mistake, Gibbs will have them mentality prepared for the game. I'm just wondering who you game plan for? There is no guarantee Wade will not play his starters (with the exception of TO.) Either way though, the 'Skins need to make this game out to be as if this is the Super Bowl!

Re: For everyone that didn't give up!
 

Even if Dallas comes on the field with the mindset to win, which I would expect them to do, if the Skins can just get up early, the Cowboys will really let down. Deep down they know they don't need this game. Football is really about heart, will and desire as much as talent and execution. The Cowboys won't have as much desire as the Skins will this week. No one can tell me otherwise.
