Just remember this, "there are two types of people, those who talk about doing and, those who do." Just win football games and the negativity will stop.

Re: Stop The Negative

The good news about those teams is that there are a few of them who have misleading records. Buccaneers will be bad without Simms. Falcons are as inconsistent as we are. Saints and Rams aren't what their records say they are. If we can beat the remaining teams in our division at home, steal one at Philly, we should be able to handle the rest of the NFC.

Re: Stop The Negative

Anytime, and seriously, if we can take care of our business at home, I feel totally confident in us being able to HOPEFULLY steal one in Philly, and hopefully pull off wins against NO, St. Louis and Tampa Bay away. If the conditions are right for us to upset them, they most definitely are now barring injury to our guys.

***Bad Fan Alert*** Do Not Read if You Have Unrelenting Optimism

I agree that Washington is superior to some of the 4-1 teams on paper, but the problem is Washington played far better football last season, and only managed to go 10-6. They even lost to the hapless Raiders and tried to give another one away to the Cardinals. There has not been one season since 1992, where Washington has beaten every team they should beat. They've already lost one of the games they should've won this year. So while they should be able to beat Tampa Bay, St. Louis, New Orleans, Atlanta, and the Giants and Cowboys at home, at least a couple of those games will result in a loss.

Someone didn't pay attention to my disclaimer.

And if half of my posts consisted of "I have Faith, HAIL Gibbs!!!" my post count would probably be a lot higher too. :tongue

That's why they play the game

Re: Stop The Negative

Our toughest game this year is going to be away against Philly. We win that one, we're going to take HUGE momentum going down the stretch. Remember, Philly always has people injured and McNabb seems to be the only constant for them right now. If we can get totally healthy on both sides of the ball, they're prime for the plucking up in Philly.

Re: Stop The Negative

Parity is Here! The only team I look at and think we are POSSIBLY outmatched is Indy, and they are not the same with the exodus of EJ to AZ. Our secondary, at the moment may be our achilles with them. To a man, we hang our heads to NO ONE on that list. To date, however, we have obviously not played like it consistently. We'll see how much heart the team has. They did last year

Re: Stop The Negative

Oh, I don't deny that at all. I'm just saying that if both teams play up to their potential in each one of those games, there's only a couple of those that might result in a loss. If I'm looking at losses realistically, I'm thinking we lose to the Colts, Eagles away and Rams away for the rest of the year.

Re: Stop The Negative

Why do we even talk about games we will probably lose? This team can not afford another lose! If you guys haven't noticed, our record is not looking very good right now, compared to other teams. If they want to go the playoffs, they need to win their division. The wild card looks to be out of the question.
