That's a far cry from 31st, kudos to the defense and G-Will for making it happen.

Very nice season by the D, and a great turnaround from last year.

I am proud of the defense. Ranking #8 in the league is an accomplishment. That can really take us somewhere because they have stepped up their game tremendously.

Offense finished 15th I think, kind of middle of the pack. However scoring the past 4 games has been much better, The Skins put up 24 on the Bears, 22 on the G-men, 32 on the Vikings, and 27 on the Cowboys. A good trend.

Nice but if you look............

#7 New York Giants

#8Washington Redskins

#9 Dallas Cowboys

#10 Eagles

.................this and the fact we have 3 teams from our divison in the playoffs says we are the tuffest divison in the league.

Not so fast, every team in the NFC east lost to New England and some team got it really bad (no names). So until a member of the east can beat the beast of the NFL than the east is not back to me.

Except for the forget-about-it game the Pats were really pushed to their limits in three games.

I'm super-duper impressed, even in awe, of our defense this year. With two season ending injuries to starters (very good starters) and the tragedy of ST's death I think this defense showed more grit, character, and heart than any other in the NFL. I think most of us would agree that we even lost our best player in ST, and how many teams do you suppose would excel in that kind of situation? When B. Sanders is missing from the Indy lineup their d is mediocre.

Anyway, i think what's happened is pretty awesome. Our d is leading us into the playoffs and I don't think it's going to let up.

The NFC East is one of, or the, best division in football, regardless of just how good the Pats are. As for the Redskins taking one on the chin against the Pats, I believe your boys took a nice beating the other night.
