The 2 most important games of the season :
(1) Dallas - got us over the cowboys curse (which got us over the nfc east curse) and helped build the confidence to able to win any game no matter how terrible the performance or how many points down.
(2) San Francisco - helped to convince us that we are on another level offensively and also helped to attain a comfort level between the players and the coaches' play calling.
Having said that - in New York - the first few plays and possessions are key to the game and maybe the next big step we take. If we get on a roll (like I know we can offensively), the teams' confidence level will be sky high, and despite "the fly under the radar" theory, I think the redskins confidence this sesason is what is sparking the redskins' success.
