Any "Day After" Regrets for Beating Saints?

Me too I was thinking that last night!

The goal is to win every game, no matter what the circumstances.

Everything else such as draft position, team morale, etc., is just crap for us fans to pick apart and over-analyze during the offseason.

[724Skinsfan]

The perennial playoff teams seem to do just fine with the position they are given. Actually an argument can be made comparing the top ten teams versus the bottom ten teams over the course of, say, ten years. I've never looked into it but I would be willing to bet the teams that draft later in the first round have a better overall record than the teams that regularly draft in the first ten spots.

I can think of one team that is doing something with their early round draft picks: the Bengals, maybe the 49er's but this is their first year of achieving a modicum of success, as it relates to wins and losses, with their draft picks in quite a while.

What is with some people's hardon for a GM? One more person making decisions and steering this team in a different direction makes no sense to me. We already have enough cooks in the kitchen.

i agree with you. i think the way it is now, with gibbs, vinny and snyder's money is fine. they've made some bad choices, some (verdict still out) choices and some great choices.

You habe to be kidding right? The current front office setup is one of the worst in football according to many GM's around the league (See Wilbon Article). As Wilbon wrote you can't win in this league with a coach/GM as Gibbs is now because he can't devote the necessary time to do the GM job correctly. He did well in Gibbs I because he devoted all his time to coaching.
My idea of adding a GM is not to have another cook in the kitchen but to have an experienced, professional front office person making the right decisions so the Redskins stop getting fleeced with giving up their draft picks. Look at Holmgren in Seattle - he is a great coach but when he was also the GM when he first took the job the Seahawks were terrible. You can look at the Redskins and say the same thing here.
And Vinny Cerrato - I think the majority of posters on this board would disagree with your viewpoint that he is a good player personnel director.

If we got Matt Millen I would be asking what did Skins fans do to deserve this?

[Pocket$ $traight]

If you pull for them to lose you aren't a fan.

This is what happens when kids don't get to play dodgeball.

[GiantsSuck703]

As much as I wanted us to get Gaines Adams, I would still take a win over a loss, look at Detroit, how many times have they secured there high draft position? And dont worry about high draft picks, we will be able to get Pat Willis or Paul Posluzny in the teens any ways, its a great year for us in the draft beings that we need defensive help

[dmek25]

i would never want the skins to lose. we can bitch and moan and over analyze all thats happened this season in the off season. now lets just cheer for as many wins as possible

[gabe1984]

I think it's important they keep winning so that it build's JC's confidence going into next season. I think that is way more important than getting a little bit higher draft pick.

good point, and if we keep winning it shows JC that the vets haven't given up, very important for off season morale. These guys do have to work together in the spring.

Exactly. As a whole the team is playing much better and it's nice for them to be rewarded with a strong win against a top team

[BDBohnzie]

sorry if this offends anyone, but the subject of regrets after winning, and tanking the season for a higher draft pick has been debated and discussed to death. Does this mean after the Rams game, when we beat their collective asses in, we're going to get the same damn threads about draft picks?!?!?
