Period.

Losing faster today does not help us get a win quicker in a game to come.

Losing means you lost. Either because you fought hard and lost or GAVE UP.

Losing NEVER helps you win a season and I don't care what "knowlegable fans" think.

A loss add to yer losses...period

peace

I know it isn't ideal, but a loss can actually motivate a team to improve and work harder later (in practice and in a game). Don't get me wrong - the loss was a devastating loss and I never believe in giving up, but from this point on, it will be how the redskins respond to this adversity. That will be the true measure of what kind of team this is.
I have an example that's not really similar to this game, but it is an example of how losing can help to improve the team. A couple of years back a previous superbowl winner lost to one of weaker teams: 17-20 and the losing qb was so frustrated - he cried after the game. But after this game, the qb and the team improved so considerably that the rest of the team for the rest of the season were forced to take notice.
Who was this team that lost? ... the New England Patriots lost against the Redskins in week 4 in 2003. This team won every game the rest of the year and of course won the superbowl that year and also became the 2004 superbowl winners. The crying quarterback was a superbowl mvp and the team is now considered a dynasty. Do I think this one loss propelled them to greatness ? yes, I'd like to think so.
