Are We Jinxed?
 
Since gibbs left I've never seen a team find more ways to lose a ballgame than the skins,they snatch defeat out of a victory more than any team I've ever seen,the way we find ways to lose games are just beyond description,I've never seen anything like it

I agree...we are jinxed...seems like nothing good ever happens to this team no matter who we bring in. The fact that everyone we've let go has a field day when they play us just furthers that thought - can't believe we let Deion get the better of us on two key plays!

Maybe it's Jack Kent Cooke's way of speaking from the grave and telling Snyder to sell the team back to the Cooke family.

rickmmrr 10-11-2004 12:28 AM

It does seem that way lately.

wolfeskins 10-11-2004 12:45 AM

seems like if theres a way to lose a game,the redskins will find it

Maybe it's punishment for Jack Kent Cooke not giving his son the team in the first place, not that John was any good while he was in charge anyway

But I'm not about to say we're cursed or jinxed. I don't want to be like those Red Sox fans who conveniently use "the curse" as a crutch for every loss

illdefined 10-11-2004 01:28 AM

c'mon. GIBBS is BACK and we're still losing all CLOSE ones by one or two unlucky plays. its gotta be a curse. either change the name of the stadium back to JKC or move back to RFK...

That Guy 10-11-2004 04:02 AM

really? a curse? it couldn't be more easily explained by an extended period of roster and staffing overhauls and continued piss poor performances?

sorry, server said too busy, guess it posted anyways though :(

Luxorreb 10-11-2004 04:51 AM

Nice way to rack up the posts thatguy.

We are not jinxed. We just don't have much to offer on offense presently. Along with a short run with a long list of coaches and a roster full of different coaches players....
Gibbs will turn this thing around.

LRT 10-11-2004 04:59 AM

I don 't believe in jinxes, but a "jinx" would be a nice excuse to change the name of the stadium back to Jack Kent Cooke Memorial Stadium...

Although it seems like years since the glory days, it is too early to call this team jinxed. When it turns to about 30 years of this s**t then we can call it a jinx. I hope we dont have to suffer through it though.

Bozzy 10-11-2004 10:46 AM

there is no fucking curse, the offense just sucks right now.

JoeRedskin 10-11-2004 11:45 AM

lol... didn't see this post when I posted my Patriots stole our mojo thread (not that there was much mojo to steal - but, hey, every little bit helps.

As a practical matter, I agree - we just aren't making plays b/c our team is still having lapses. That's the only reason the Ravens scored last night... A fake reverse punt return for a TD - come on, that's pure lane discipline and, literally, "staying on the ball".


With that said, it just seems that we have had a lot of bad bounces w/ few good ones in return. As JG said, we fumble and they don't just recover - they recover for a TD.

The only way to beat a jinx is to play through it. I hope they do and I hope their isn't a jinx.

MTK 10-11-2004 11:57 AM

We've jinxed ourselves with the constant turnover in personnel and coaching.

Just what I was thinking. Thank you.
So what do you really think??? ;)

illdefined 10-11-2004 01:13 PM

i think its a curse, cuz we always lose by one dumb play. for seasons now.

RedskinRat 10-11-2004 01:43 PM

I don't believe in curses but I do believe that I'm fed up with what I've seen for the past 12 years.

denim_monger 10-11-2004 01:45 PM

skins are the new bengals

lol

itvnetop 10-11-2004 04:58 PM

i tend to agree with the system changes causing much of this... suzy kolber asked arrington last night about having five different D coordinators in five years, to which he replied "it's tough."

we can say all we want about how professionals should be able to adjust, but i think any NFL team would have success with the turnover we've had.

la73hof 10-11-2004 05:23 PM

This year, its the curse of Eastern Motors:
