So, is there freedom of speech here or what?

Personally, I find the following were also good acquisitions ( in no particular order):

1. Chris Cooley
2. London Fletcher
3. Laron Landry.
4. Shaun Suisham
5. Sean Taylor
6. James Thrash, and I'll even throw in
7. Stephon Heyer ( a diamond in the rough).



I think the Redskins have been snake-bit this year by injuries. Some years that happens.

IMHO.

Other factors as well but injuries are a major one.

I remember YEARS ago listening to Ken Beatriz ("You're next, on Sports talk!") and someone asked him why the skins were so good that year and he said something to the effect that one of the biggest determinants is which team had the fewest injuries at critical positions.

We were not that fortunate this year. A new QB with a (albeit decent) patchwork O-line, Rogers an Taylor both going out at the same time, Moss playing hurt ('every step is excruciating').

I think ole Kenny had it right.

Not the only reason, but a big one.

Lots of reasons for where we are now, but can anybody remind me how it felt in 05 when we had the identical record. I can't seem to recall if it was as bad a situation as it is now. I guess the six wins in a row helped with my amnesia. The Cowvomits sucking also helped. Finally, as a matter of free speech...J-Dawg, please remove the Longley quote. The painful memories! Oh the pain! I'm going fetal.
