Normally, I'd be scared of a Cincinnati team that historically plays the NFC East VERY tough, but I think they are catching us at a really bad time from an emotional standpoint. We have a lot to prove with Heyer and Fabini at the tackles, and they don't have a nose tackle who can move Rabach all over the place, which is a must have if you want to stop the Redskins offense.
Philly is another story, but like I said, one win over a bad team and the ridiculously inaccurate pessimism on this site becomes ridiculously inaccurate optimism. I don't think you will in any way be part of this trend, but you have to agree with me that it exists, right??

Here is what I think. When a team scores 10 points a game there is no way you can say we'll beat anyone. We should beat Cinn but it won't surprise me if we lose. I would be willing to bet that we split Philly and SF. So we'll end up 9-7 or 8-8. Not good enough to get in the playoffs.
