It has always been that way. Even when the Skins were winning Super Bowls, the national media consistently picked our opponents to win. We get no respect.

"No respect, I tell ya! My wife sent me out to buy a dozen condoms. When I got back, she took four of them and went out!"

One time, the national media nearly unanimously picked the Bears, with Doug Flutie at QB, to beat us in a playoff game. No way was Doug Flutie going to beat the Redskins! The Skins simply put eight men in the box, daring Doug to beat us by passing. Of course, he couldn't do it and we beat them handily.

BTW, I suppose that these prognosticators who were mentioned in the article haven't noticed that we're undefeated at home this season despite our supposedly lukewarm fans. Well, the fans will come through in this game. You can count on it!

Sorry to remind you but we lost the opener at home to the lowly Dolphins.

I agree with your sentiment, but we're 6-2 at home this year.
We're undefeated, if you don't count the Miami and Dall-ass games.

But, I think your point is valid...we've proved to be a tough opponent, but we're especially dangerous at home.

Not sure if this is surprising really.



@MikeKlis

Peyton Manning will be Broncos starting QB in playoffs, Gary Kubiak told his team today. #9news #9sports

Re: Wilcard/Playoffs weekend

I think the playoffs won't have the top seeds make it like the last couple seasons. Denver is good but manning just doesnt play well in the playoffs for some reason. Carolina is inexperienced and that makes a difference

Re: Wilcard/Playoffs weekend

It's one thing to pick Green Bay, but the arguments made in that article are obviously coming from someone who doesn't watch much of the 'Skins.....

"You keep waiting for the bad Cousins to show up; turnover traits are in play" Oh really? I was one of Kirk's biggest critics early in the season because of his turnovers, but those "turnover traits" have all but gone away. It doesn't mean he will never throw a pick again, and if we were playing Seattle, a team I'd expect to produce a lot tighter coverage and perhaps be able to disguise their defense a lot better then yeah I could understand those comments, but what leads "experts" to think Kirk will be a turnover machine against this Packers defense?

I think when it comes down to it, a lot of these analysts are just defaulting to Aaron Rodgers in the Wildcard game as being reason enough to pick the packers. They think Aaron Rodgers alone can make up for the rest of the Packers's deficiencies regardless of how any of the other matchups go.

In a QB league, most will do that. I assume just about every pundit will pick GB just because of Rodgers. But we are good at home and GB is struggling right now. Their OL and receivers are not what they have had in the past so I dont think it will be as easy as a lot think it will. Their defense has a good pass rush but not much else. If our OL can keep KC clean, I think we have a good chance of extending our season.
