Yes.

You can't get those picks back. You're forced to develop RG3 into the kind of star that three top picks cannot replace. That is really hard to do. But it is what the Redskins signed up for.

I honestly do not believe the Redskins are very talented compared to the rest of the NFL.

I just think the Redskins really have nothing to be proud of at this point and time. They really do nothing well. They are almost the Jaguars. Even the Jaguars made the Denver game competitive for a half and they picked of Manning and he only had two touchdown passes. I'm not sure the Redskins could accomplish any of that.

When RG3 isn't great, like he was last year... you are seeing the results.

We have talent , we won 10 games just a season ago

We have some talent thats all I'll say.

Yeah I could totally see the Jags putting together a 7 game win streak.

Griffin was great last year but he didn't do it alone.

So you can see this Redskins team putting together a 7 game winning streak?

Why not, it's basically the same team from last year.

Since you made the comparison, could the Jags?

The cap penalty took away a number of opportunities to get better. But at 1-4, the problem is that we have done a poor job taking advantage of the opportunities we get every Sunday. If your argument is really that our dealt hand was so crappy that it can not be overcome, you're probably an excuse-maker.

They key word here is "opportunity" ...there is no guarantee that if we were able to bring in free agents our record would be any different. The roster is already loaded with free agents on both sides of the ball.

Seriously though Matty, jokes aside, you realllly think we could go on a 7 game winning streak?

Next thing you're going to say is that we'll beat Denver.

I am talking about only this year.

To me bringing up last year's run is like bringing up the Giants run at the Superbowl.

Right now the Giants are in the Jaguar's ballpark for worst team in the NFL right now, what happened the past two years to those team means little to nothing to me when comparing them strictly based on their performance this year.

Did we think they could do it last year when they were 3-6?

Yes.

RG3 is main reason we suck compared to last year, and he should be getting better as he gets his legs back and learns how to play in the pocket and against the blitz. Hopefully he also finds his accuracy. The running game is nonexistent but should also improve as RG3 gets back. I can see us continue to struggle for a few more games.

But if we rattle off a win-streak by the end of the season, it could save a lot of people's jobs, serve as a confidence boost going into next year, and allow us to recruit good FAs who want to play for us.

Matt are you taking the side of optimism just for giggles? Surely the schedule and outcome of games has given you a more accurate guage of what to expect.

The difference with last year was dumb luck and momentum of a superhuman talent in Robert that won regular season games at the expense of the playoffs a d 2013 season.
