I don't think that's true. I think we wouldn't have deserved it if we lost to Dallas backups. Seattle is a decent team. I don't think they're great. But our offensive line is absolutely inexcusably bad. And the Redskins have to address that this offseason by getting some depth.

I mean the front 4 of Seattle absolutely bent us over all game. And that was the problem with the whole game. I think if TC had more time back there, we would have done better. If the O-line had blocked better Portis might have been able to run more than just 2-3 ypc.

I think the team did great coming back from 5-7 not a lot of teams could do that. I believe the Redskins are still RIGHT on the cusp of blossoming into something great and hopefully they can put the pieces together over the offseason.

Gotta humbly disagree. They have 4 defensive players in the Pro Bowl and Kerney has played great his whole career. Kerney and Peterson are studs and they played a great game. Rabach is great at making line adjustments and is a really good center. Samuels and Kendall are better than average. Fabini should not even be a backup at this point of his career (unless it is in the AFL). And Heyer, well, he went undrafted for a reason. Give him some time but he's in no way capable of blocking Kerney even w/ help.
So yes, their front 4 dominated (with help from Lofi and Peterson) but they are better.

Thanks for making something of a season that seemed lost. Let's make this strong finish a stepping stone for a great season next year.

There are 4 games this week, so every team that loses didn't deserve the chance to play in the playoffs?????? Not a logical comment buddy.
