Re: Root hard for Philly tonight
 

[QUOTE=5RINGS]Exactly!!
We won a game that the Eagles couldn't - wouldn't? - close out. We learned the hard way that the game is 60 mins long. Actually we had to be taught that lesson two or three times.

I still see the Redskins as the Team in the drivers seat. Great Div record. Home games against Dallas and NYG, when it is cold. Maybe if the Cowboys and Giants can get more people close to them to pass away before those games......
I for one would gladly sacrifice Jerry Jones for a victory in DC. I'd sacrifice him for a close game in DC actually.[/QUOTE]
We'd sacrifice him for lower humidity. ;)

I'm not sure I can agree with us being in the driver's seat. I'd certainly rather be 6-3 than 5-4. But, a game out of first with our toughest games a home isn't so bad.

The Skins are still in good shape with 3 division games still on the schedule, and two of them at home.

That being said it's still going to be a heck of a battle and the Skins better get things figured out on D with giving up the big plays and find a way to cut down the turnovers on offense.
