The 2005 OT win over Jacksonville, the win against the Bears just days after burying Sean Taylor, the Troy Vincent block against the Cowboys...none of those as exciting?

Hey Smoot, those were some great games. You played in all of those games. But the game in 1997 was more exciting simply because it was the first game ever played at Jack Kent Cooke Stadium/Fed Ex Field and it went into overtime.

that'd be cool if they had a couple of 'em and tied them to the ball's motion, so you would go flying down on kickoffs or fg's. Just don't tell me how they handle bathroom breaks.

We're close to breaking the streak. I wouldn't worry.
Yupp. Lets try not to blow this stat out of proportion. Sample size is small and we've just been a bad team.

Ceratto's negative shadow still looms. I guess it's going to take one or two more drafts and a free agent signing or two for Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan to completely undo the mess that Cerrato left behind.
