No time to game plan, no time to heal up from the previous game. It most definitely affected the Redskins.

The NFL dropped the ball on this one. But anyway, what's done is done.
Yeah, Gruden said they tried to install some Dallas game plan during the bye .. 3 weeks before the Dallas game and before we played the Vikings and Packers.

While I hated the short turn around, Dallas beat us twice and without our defense showing me that they are capable of stopping the Dallas offense, Dallas is the better team. Dallas scoring drives last game were long consecutive drives.

Go Boys tonight though! Really need a vikings loss.
