[QUOTE=Twilbert07]With this 2-6 run, this season definitely feels like a repeat of last season and the season before that and the season before that ...[/QUOTE]

I try to give each year's team a fresh slate. While it's understandable that people would compare this year's team to last year's, in my opinion we are better than last year's team by leaps and bounds.

Does anyone remember just how bad our offense was last year? Apparently, a lot is forgotten in one year.

i feel that i am somewhat homerish and i believe in this team but someone on the radio said something, even though i disagreed with it, it made me think

Had we lost any one of the first three we wouldn't think that we are a good team, after those first 3 i was so high and at 5-3 people were talking HOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i feel that we have been riding some of those first victories to influence our thoughts on how good this team really is, we have played some really close games but i think most of us agree they have been pretty bad. Nothing can convince me that we are a BAD team but after losing 6 out of 8 why do we still think we are good, its because of the first 3, had we just lost one of those three i think our perception about this team would be a lot different

The offense has improved, but it has shut down in the fourth quarter of the past two weeks, when we desperately needed a score. And we've only scored more than 21 points twice this year, I believe.

any way the way we are playing and still did not get W
We would need another season to be a contender

the ups and downs are pretty frustrating to say the least. but the truly horrific times weren't that far back... keep hope alive!

Yup, but barely. I was a wee little youngster during Gibbs' first tenure. I remember my first Redskins game at RFK in 1987 (I was just 8 years old). My older brother was (and is) a diehard Redskins fan. So, I remember the glory days.

I also remember the god-awful days. Trust me, as bad as we are, we're nowhere near as bad as we have been in the not to distant past.
