We have the talent to do so, and we're flying under everyone's radar right now. I think going 2-0 in the next two games would set up nicely for the bye week. I would like for once to see us win a game decisively. While it is better to win ugly than lose pretty, eventually those mistakes and missed opportunity bite you in the a$$ when you play a very good team like the Colts.

Well for what it's worth, so far your claim had not come true. But my initial point was don't complain about no respect from the media when our own fans give up on them just a few minutes into the game

who seemed upset? Other than the comcast crew? We all know AH has conditioning issues, if he had been on the field on those long drives of indy he may have had a heart attack!

I'm pretty sure the 06 team would sack Cutler at least 7 times. He's the most sacked player in the league and there really isn't a no. 2.

Nope. If you paid attention, I was correcting an eariler poster. But, you were obviously too busy being negative, so stop harboring so much attention on me. Its not flattering.

I don't get what defensive plan AH missed that justifies him being inactive. I get that you have a particular plan, but I think our interior d-linemen were terrible today. I would think that AH is talented enough to have been able to push that offensive line.

If the Redskins improve in the following areas, they will be a playoff team:

Stop stupid penalties on returns by the special teams

Stop the runs up the middle, haven't all season long

Stop biting on play action plays (not so much last 2 games)

Start using Haynesworth more

This. There's no Pittsburgh, NY Jets or Ravens in the NFC... how can anyone say we're any worse than the top NFC teams right now? The only game I'd really like back is that Rams game- but they're actually not the worst team in the league anymore. The conference is still wide open. And there's tons of football to play.

Big words from the knight. I think it's been pretty well established that you pay no real attention to what people post

Again, outside of Rak and maybe AH, who on this team can be considered a good and consistent pass rusher?

Truth. Honestly I feel we could run the table on the NFC teams left on our schedule. Now of course we won't, and there's probably equal chance we could get shut out too, but too ma ny people forget just how bad we were last year. That we won 4 games is a minor miracle.

The players didn't say anything but it was the hesitation along with the body demeanor. Buchannon seemed to have issues with it along with Alexander just now.

Of course not

On another note, with Cooley perhaps out next week maybe we'll finally get FD more involved
