Let's face it, this is not your father's NFL, its more NBA anymore with tons of points being scored every week. The 17-10 games don't happen much any more. There are more 35-31 type games. A bend but don't break Defense that can get turnovers is really all you need. Keep winning the turnover battle, which gives your offense more possesions than their offense and you have a better chance to win. Come up big on 3rd down a few more times than they do to force a FG, and you can win. Do we all lose our hair while we watch? Absolutley, but it can work!

I agree. I sometimes think the Redskins are just not used to playing with a big lead. They just need to start getting used to it. Eventually, they will learn how to snuff out all hope.
