Redskins 31 Browns 20 post game talk

[punch it in]

Right now I am up in the air about "the direction of this team". As well I should be. We are 2-2. We could be 3-1. We could be 0-4. That is reality. That is how we are playing. Depth, as Schneed pointed out, has seemingly improved. I mean in past years these injuries would have decimated us. Murphy, Dunbar, our O-line - there appears to be real solid depth there.
Cousins seems to be getting on track. Jones and CT, and more importantly Grudens decision not to take them out of the game , seems to have actually given us a credible run game. No doubt that our defense up the middle needs help. Probably not in the form of mid season pick ups but who knows. Most likely (pray to God) this is addressed with the utmost of importance during the offseason. If we get some guys back, continue to improve, and stay healthy otherwise, than this team can win 9-10 games and be in it at the end. Which is all you need to be - see the Giants last two championship teams. If you remember correctly they were calling for Coughlin, and Eli's heads midway through both of those seasons.
Now, if next year we are 5 weeks into the season and our defense still looks like this, and our redzone offense is struggling than I think the optimism police have a legitimate gripe. Let us remember what a complete disaster this roster was two years ago though. We have enough pieces right now to make some "unexpected" noise. With one more draft and free agency period we "should" be fielding a complete team.
