THIS is the best you have felt about the Skins since?

I got this from Doc, and Kevin on 980am, and thought it worthy.
I have not felt this positve about the Skins since Joe1. We are not there yet. BUT, it is the difference in hoping we can win , and knowing we can win.
Hoping we can contend with the Eagles, and knowing we can.
Hoping we can hang on to protect a lead, and knowing they can put up more!
Your thoughts?

Re: THIS is the best you have felt about the Skins since?

I'm only 25, so it's the best I've felt since 91. I was so youn then (8-9) that when they won the Super Bowl, I dug it, but not as much as I do now.

My older years, I have felt a lot of heartbreak and disappointment.

That could still come this year, but it certainly feels different.

Ever. I've only been following the team since 2001 though, so that might be the reason.

I'm with you on that. This is the most positive I've felt about our direction and roster though.

Totally agree with you... And yes if history holds true we have won the Superbowl following everytime the Giants have won theirs. It would be awesome and then Gibbs 2.0 was to set this team on the right path and Zorn gave us that offense we needed to be successful.

I agree Soup's. I think the only thing that could top that victory would be a Super Bowl.

Re: THIS is the best you have felt about the Skins since?

In '05, after the Skins beat the 49ers 52-17 and improved to 4-2, I thougth we were serious SB contenders. It felt as though Joe G. had found his old magic.

I feel about the same now as I did then.

Re: THIS is the best you have felt about the Skins since?

Last I felt this level of optimism was probably the Bucs game, season opener for Gibbs 2.0. After seeing CP rip a 64 yd TD run first touch and beating a good team with solid play I thought we were going to automatically start winning superbowls.

Re: THIS is the best you have felt about the Skins since?

since joe gibbs announced he was coming back to the skins in 2004.i don,t have that superbowl feeling as of yet but the feeling thus far thru 4 games feels great and i hope they can keep it going....if they return to form all the way then i will be tickled burgundy and gold for sure.

this is best i have felt since the last time we won the nfc east and maybe it to the second round of the playoffs...

This kind of Skins optimism is just asking for a smack down. I'm not ready to be so thrilled. Philly is only game 5... One day at a time.

I agree! This thread would be good if say we had clinched a playoff birth. This is still a young team at HC and QB there will be some growing pains coming up.
