Romo out 4 Weeks

Too bad for the Boys. This really opens things up for the Skins. They need to win the next 2.

Next 3

Yeah Felix Jones with a hamstring tear, and Matt McBriar who is a very good punter, has multiple fractures in his punting foot and will be put on IR.

Wow. This is really bad. I hate injuries so I'm certainly not cheering, but this could cost them games.

My responses to your post:

1) Can we trade them Durant Brooks for a bucket of chicken and 10 minutes with the Cowboy cheerleaders? (Ok - 2 minutes)

2) Karma is a beee-atch! Hiring a team of criminals to win is bad karma in my book.

Karma is a beeotch. Kinda like that thug D-tackle (Ricky Jean-Francois) for LSU who said early lat week they were going to try to injure Tim Tebow. How'd that work out? Jean-Francois hurt his groin and couldn't play, and the Gators dropped half a hundred on the defending champs. Sorry, had to plug my Gators.

Anyway, looks like their 4th WR Sam Hurd will miss the rest of the season too.

Forgot to mention that they also lost Sam Hurd WR for the season (ankle injury).

Is that per cheerleader or overall? After the first couple i could go a little longer....

If the Browns play us like they're playing the Giants right now, next week's game will be tough, too.

I wouldn't worry about that. There were 15 days between their last game and this game to prepare for, and they will only have 6 days to prepare for us.

Also, as much as the G-men were off their game, understand that -- much like the Rams vs. us -- the Browns don't win that game unless they finish +3 in the turnover margin (sound familiar?). If we simply protect the football better next week, the Browns won't touch us.

Is it really though?

The Skins had 1 turnover through 5 games, and 1 game with 3. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt for now on the last game.

I think so,I think it was a fluke we went 5 games without a turnover,that just doesnt happen,as a matter of fact it had never happenned before in nfl history,so to think were going to stay on that same path IMO is very wishful thinking.Now hopefully there wont be anymore 3 turnover games,a more manageable 1 turnover game.

Is it just me or does it seem like over the yrs when we have turnovers they usually turn into HUGE plays for the other team.Cant we just fumble the ball and somebody fall on it instead of running for a td? It seems like over the yrs theres been a few times where we would just dominate a team but the turnovers would kill us because they werent just fumbles or ints,they were fumbles or ints that were returned for TDS!!
I can remember a game againts the eagles in the 80's I think,Gerald Riggs was carving up the eagles,had over 200 yrds rushing,was going in for a score to put the game away and fumbled and it was returned for an eagles td,eagles win. That kinda shit always seems to happen to us,or maybe i just think that cause Im a skin fan,maybe other fans feel the same way about their teams

5 games without a turnover is rare, but I also think coughing it up 3 times in a game is almost as much of a fluke for this team.
