Stats Cowboy Fan Sent Me

Cowboy fan emailed me this,I think he got it off his msn homepage,those stats dont look good for the skins,hopefully we can break the string

Rk Team W-L Last Wk 2005 Only Offense Rk Defense Rk Sp. Tms Rk
17. COWBOYS 2-2 16 17 12 19 18
Yes, the Cowboys rank ahead of the Redskins despite a head-to-head loss. The Redskins have nothing in their portfolio like Dallas' victory over the Chargers, the Cowboys outplayed the Skins in the Monday Night game, and the rating system likes many of the things that the Cowboys do on offense. Scoring, for example. NEXT: vs. PHI — The Eagles will put an end to any Cowboys-Redskins debate.
18. REDSKINS 3-0 18 21 16 16 29
What do the 2004 Jaguars and 1999 Patriots have in common? Like Washington, each team started off the season with three straight wins of three points or less. Neither team made the playoffs. Other teams that won three straight games by three points or less include the 8-8 Raiders of 1998 and the 9-7 Dolphins of 1999. Both teams went 2-6 over the second half of the season. That Dolphins team did make the playoffs, though, where they were pummeled 62-7 by Jacksonville. NEXT: at DEN
19. RAIDERS 1-3 22 15 8 26 24
If Drew Bledsoe checked down to his secondary receivers against the Raiders, he would have found them wide open. The Raiders still cannot defend the pass, and most quarterbacks won't obligingly stand in the pocket the whole afternoon like Bledsoe did. NEXT: Bye, then vs. SD.
20. BEARS 1-2 21 11 27 1 6
Cedric Benson will play a bigger role in the offense in the weeks to come, and the Bears are experimenting with some shotgun formations. Offensive coordinator Ron Turner was very specific in the Chicago Sun Times about how he planned to improve the offense: "We all have to do a better job." Thanks, coach. NEXT: at CLE

Or we could end up winning 10 games without a whole lotta upsets. Don't start believing that just because teams were good last year that they are still that good this year. The Rams, Raiders, Cardinal, 9ers, Cowgirlls are not unbeatable right now. If we pick up a Giants game and one of our next two....

CooleyAsCanBe · 10-06-2005, 09:49 PM

These rankings are from FoxSports.com. Their system is based on a computer program that uses last year's rankings and a bunch of formulas to come up with blind ranking. It is a bunch of bull. Worse than the BCS computer. It has us ranked 16th in defense. I mean, come on, 16th????

I really don't care about rankings, but common sense has to mean something.

The link to the full rankings and explanation about the computer system is:

Heres a stat that I think does bode well.....

Do you remember the last time the Redskins went 3-0 period? What happend then?

skinsguy · 10-06-2005, 10:47 PM

*Yawn*

Admit Cowboys fans...you lost in big D!

Redskins8588 · 10-06-2005, 11:28 PM

All it tells me is that the 1999 Dolphins that loss to Jacksonville 62-7 must have been playing over there heads...

All it tells me is these are the kind of stats that mean shit. Are those the only teams to ever win their first 3 games? No of course not. In fact I'd bet the vast majority of teams that win their first three games make the playoffs. I think the number is like 70%. Are those the only teams to win their first three games by less than 3 points? I bet not. So who were the others and what did they end up doing? Selective use of stats to make a point is stupidity and puts you solidly in the "hack" column in my book.

You should tell the Cowboys fan to go crawl in bed with his girl and tell her how the Cowboys shouldacoulda beat us on Monday night.

Oh, don't let us forget the infamous post on the Cowboys.com how no matter what the scoreboard said, the Cowboys won that game....

CooleyAsCanBe · 10-07-2005, 09:12 AM

Cowboys 2-2*

How many times in this series over the last 10 years could we have said that. what about last years game in dallas. we owend them all game and lose it in the end. time for them to get over it, and stop rationalizing it away.

SKINSnCANES · 10-07-2005, 10:28 AM

I think we can win this game against Denver, espcially is Bailey doesnt play. That should make for a big game for Moss. And you know Portis is going to try and bust his ass this week. We should be able to stop their run and Plummer cant lead his team to victory without a running game. I hope Lavar plays and gets four sacks on plummer

With his "girl"? That's being generous...

memphisskin · 10-07-2005, 11:55 AM

Rankings suck and pro football ratings suck even more. Foxsports DOVA must stand for Dumb Obsolete & Very Asinine. We're the 5th best against the run, yet DOVA has us 10th and 16th against the pass and DOVA has us 21st.

Good thing we'll get to prove it on the field. No wonder everyone is picking the Broncos to beat us, they are the 10th ranked team and we're only 18. If we had to depend on rankings, we'd never get a BCS bid.

I can't wait until our offense starts to really click, then let's see how the hatas spin that.
