Don't want to come down ...
Okay, we have been on cloud 9 for 2 days now - most of us just witnessed if not the best win in Skins history, a top three one at worst! We just won our first one point game in 15 years and we just beat our most hated rivals in their house.
BUT Could we be getting a little overwhelmed with all the emotion that this victory gave us? What I'm afraid of is another unrealistic view of the skins, much like what we had before Gibb's first game last year. This site had a ton 10-6 predictions - based purely on emotion. I still see a team that is 28th in scoring, a team that has only scored two touchdowns in 2 games, and team that commits way to many penalties, and turnovers. I also see a team that showed crazy guts and resolve, a team that would have NO DOUBT lost this game last year. Those two passes to Moss were gutsy calls, perfectly executed, and by no means a freaking miracle. We took that game away. I'm just real confused, there is no doubt I am still glowing from our win, but I'm wondering now about Seattle and if we are as good as we think we are? For the first 55 min of that game I thought the skins were done, season in jeopardy, and then 5 min later I'm thinking playoffs, is that crazy? thoughts?
