6-2 is terrific!

I think the guys are fatigued. They had an intense training camp, an extra preseason game, and then 5 games against difficult opponents to start the regular season. I think this team badly needs the bye week not just for injury issues but also for emotional health. I predict bigger margins of victory after the bye week. Let's hope that they play Pittsburgh tough and then enjoy a well-deserved rest.

HTT 6-2 R!

Re: Redskins vs. Lions Gameday thread
 

Game was awesome!!!!!! Boy the Skins away crowd was just stupendous!!!!! They were loud and proud and it is a great testament to the classiness of Skins fans in general. Lots of burgundy and yellow in the stands today. I even met a Skins fan that came all the way from Toronto!! I was lucky enough to sit by a big bunch of Skins fans in the upper section in the one end zone(cheap seats). Still a very nice view of the game though. Skins are solid all around, but we do need to get a much needed pass rush scheme soon. Also, we need to quit the formations with no back to help protect Jason. 2 sacks=2 fumbles by Jason, and he didin't have any backs to help out with the rush.

I think that stupidstition involves the 'Skins last home game before an election, which by a matter of hours would be the Pittsburgh game this year.

DEION LAUNCHES THE IRONIC NICKNAME CLUB

So we’re watching this weekend the highlight show on NFL Network. And Rich Eisen is narrating clips from the Redskins-Lions game (which was played in windy Ford Field).

And Eisen mentions Redskins running back Shaun Alexander, the 2005 NFL MVP. And then Deion Sanders barks out his pet name for Alexander.

Deion calls Alexander the “Tiptoe Burglar.”

It’s funny. And it’s arguably right on the money.

But Deion is the last guy who should be poking fun at anyone for being averse to physical contact.

In Deion’s world, “run support” means possible procedures for controlling diarrhea.

:lol: Right on target. On both counts.

There had to be a better RB available than the Tiptoe Burglar. When is Betts back?

I haven't caught anything on Betts the last two weeks but, it would be nice to think OR hope he will be ready after the well needed bye week.

I hope we get a lot of these nicked guys on the o-line and defense back after the break. The bye this year is coming at the perfect time, just after the half way point.
