Five positives against the Rams:

Clinton Portis: 6.1 ypc? He should be in the running for MVP and if the Skins finish over .750 he should win it.

Carlos Rogers: Holt? Who's that? Johnny Unitas couldn't have completed passes to him the way Rogers was shutting him down.

Cowboys lost: I root for two teams...

Jason Campbell: Okay, so he lost a fumble because he didn't fall on a horrible snap. He also still hasn't thrown an interception and he's finding second and third options like Montana. With JC at the helm you just knew that he would lead a TD drive in the 4th quarter. Torrence covers on a deep 4 and we are praising JC's poise under pressure.

Durant Brooks Quadriceps: Oh, so a promising rookie has a possible season ending injury when he's struggling? Cut him? No way. Stash him on IR and let his phenomenally strong leg learn the NFL game for a year. Why couldn't have pulled a hammie in August?

I agree with everything but the Brooks part.

On Extremeskins there are some folks ripping Carlos Rogers. Yeah, the guy who shut down Holt, T.O., etc., over consecutive weeks.

As a positive I would add that we dominated the stats. I know that the score is the only relevant stat in the end. But still, it is not like we bombed. There were little, correctable errors in several places and some bizarre bad luck, that's all. The boys played hard, if without focus at crucial times.
