That sounds about right to me.

Didn't see say we would easily beat STL last season too?

I'm in the same boat as you. I don't think this is going to be a blowout by any means, though a blowout would be nice. I'll let the week continue on, see how the coaches and players talk during the week and make a prediction later on.

Good idea cause there is no easy game for our lame ducks. Every game game they play this year are going to be hard ones concedering the way the team already looks. But as the saying goes there's always hope. RIGHT

The only way to easily beat a team or surely win a game vs. a bad team is to have solid D & O lines. If you consistently win the battles at the line of scrimmage then you can confidently say you can beat a lesser talented team.

After our performance I highly doubt you can say for sure that we can go about beating teams worse than us.


Save your hopes and dreams for your next trip to Disneyworld...it's a real world we live in. Let's witness these things first before we believe they will happen.

Take a deep breath, it's like AH said the DF needs time to jell i'm mad has hell to but since i've had time to sleep and cry it out of my system it's only one game and it will be a measureing stick.

I saw a "game within a game" during Redskins-Giants yesterday.

Third and 7 at thier own 10, the coaching staff showed a tremendous amount of "no-faith" in Campbell when they ran the ball with Portis. Not taking anything away from CP, but those are the situations where you simply must trust your QB to get it done. And they did not do that.

That was my first reaction, but thinking about it more, I have a feeling that Zorn basically outsmarted himself. Remember CP had pulled a 20+ yard run only a few plays ago, and I am sure Zorn felt everyone would be playing pass, so, lets run again. I don't agree at all, and think a play action on first would have been a far better call, but c'est la guerre

Play action would have been a good call. But as far as the run, if I am not mistaken, the offense was set up in a 2 TE set with 1 WR and a 2 back set. If I am on defense looking at that offense, I am thinking run first and keeping my LB's at home.

The least they could have done was allow JC the "luxury" of an audible if he counted too many Giants jerseys in the box.

I think that is was Campbell was thinking on the play that he audibled to.

You are the only other person besides myself that I've ever known who actively uses the phrase "c'est la guerre." Outstanding job!

I say just let JC throw it deep at some point he will get lucky and hit his man.
