I have nagging suspicion that the football gods will arrange us with an excellent reunion with AH next year. It just has to happen.

Good. Bring it on.

As long as its not with the Lions. Oh dear god the sight of Suh commanding a double team while Lich is blown up or Dock is holding/false starting is too much to bear.

I would say do what other teams have done, trade away aging yet still talented veterans in order to get draft picks and rebuild. However I would be remiss if I didn't say we don't have a lot of those on the team to trade away.

[quote=sportscurmudgeon;766182]No question the Cowboys are playing better football now than the Skins are. [B]What the Skins did yesterday in NY/NJ was about as embarrassing a performance as a team can put out there.[/B]Reality is harsh.


It was only a month ago that we had a thread going about what was going to fall in place to assure that the Skins would win the NFC East and get to the playoffs. That was fun while it lasted.


Now comes reality - - harsh reality.


The good news? There is no way that the Skins will have a worse record in 2010 than they did in 2009. You can take that bit of reality to the bank.[/quote]

gotta disagree on that,that primetime beatdown by philly was much more embarassing than yesterday

Actually its Dallas anyway you want to look at it. It was Dallas that was suppose to make the run for the SB and they are struggling just to have a 50/50 season at best. The best we were hoping for was to see the skins improve some and maybe get a lucky wild card spot. So when you look at the picks before the season started Dallas ranks #1 as having the worse season.

[quote=SouperMeister;766245]Tampa has also competed hard against good teams - they gave Atlanta all they could handle yesterday. What really depresses me is that cellar dwellers like Detroit, St. Louis, and Tampa have gotten younger and faster, and will probably be perennial playoff contenders before we will.[/quote]

The Bucs have had 15 rookies on their roster for most of this season and have started 6 of them.

Two of them came off the scrap heap of "undrafted free agents".

Whoever planned their draft last year and kept an eye on what happened to players as they were cut from other training camps did a pretty good job.

Bucs' wins this year have not come at the expense of any very good teams, but the team is indeed young and it has shown that it is a lot better than the 3-13 team the Bucs put out there last year.
