I don't know. I think it depends on how some key injuries play out. We do have a pretty easy schedule. We could end up with a decent record. Honestly, they looked better tonight then I thought they would, but the Seahawks were shooting themselves in the foot all game and still won decisively. Still there are some bright spots, DJax is certainly what we hoped he'd be, Breeland may be a decent player, Cousins can execute a no huddle drive (without the game on the line though). Kind of surprised by the lack of production by Alfmo.

Now for complete Homerism. I have seen the Redskins comeback from this kind of early season deficit to make the playoffs 3 TIMES in recent history. Don't count this team out yet. I could see them go into the bye at 4-5, then we have all the NFCE rematches. 9-7 isn't completely out of the realm of possibilities. 10-6 isn't impossible . . .

That said, I can't stop believing, and all it does is hurt me. As much as I want to keep hoping, it would be worse to have my hopes cut down at the end of the season, at least I could give up at 1-6.
