As a fan of the NFL and realism I can clearly see that our team is not competitive with the upper half of teams in the league.
For me, it has not been so much about the losing but the lack of a competitive franchise. Our last competitive win is probably the back to back games verse the cowboys and eagles last season and our late season win against the giants in 2007.
The Skins just aren't building teams that are competitive with the top ten teams in the league. The pittsburgh game last year clearly shows that. We were 6-2 going in to play a competitive NFL team at FedEx. We only scored off of two fumbles that took place on their side of the field. If we're never able to hang with these teams then we won't reasonalby go far in the playoffs.
When we're blown out our by competitive teams that means we'd last one game in the playoffs. Why am I going to root my team on to go to the playoffs when they are just going to one and done? Build a competitive team FIRST and then they won't need all the fans to ROOT HARD for the backdoor chance at the playoffs and The Pipe Dream Bowl.
AND I'm not even saying WIN...just be competitive...scare me...make it close...something...then you'll at least have a realistic shot beyond that.
