Where is the negativity???

well it is true that we have less people that come after a win. This is simply because we are insane.

I think I am just the opposite, I am so pissed after a loss, I have to keep clear of posting due to I will get into some serious controversy because the shit gets so negative. The Chicken Little the sky is falling shit drives me crazy especially how competitive and much improved this team is from last year. I have to admit I agree with the facts and that turnovers have killed us in most of our close games, and some other minor issues. Yeah it may be a long shot that we win out, but I be damn if I am a fan get on here and say my team sucks, the coaches suck, we will never win another game, etc... As long as the team plays smart football and continues to be aggressive they can win out. True it was only one game, but just have a feeling that we may surprise some people and keep those negative fans in a hole for a while or until an individual who messes up brings them out of hibernation and not a team loss where they bash the whole team and even find away to blame someone from the previous years for the loss or why the team is so horrible.

I think some of us just seek solace with others feeling as angry/frustrated as ourselves after a defeat. others just dwell in negativity and will find something wrong with everything that happens. It's hard for some of us after the past dozen years or so to really enjoy the moment when the team does something well cuz we might be afraid of getting too excited only to be dissapointed, but a majority of us keep coming back cuz it's our team no matter what even if it is just to vent.

I'm just happy to see progress. We had a hell of a schedule and may still very well end up with a winning record. Don't forget that every non-redskin fan predicted us to have an awful, dismal, losing record this year.

Worst game of the year for Brunell?

The Rams game?

He posted a QB rating of 104.5.

Nah, definitely his worst game was against the Giants. He truly looked like the Brunell of last year. Throwing the ball high. Throwing it behind the receivers. Throwing it in the dirt. That one was painful to watch.

Sounds like my chief complaint this year was the same as the veterans on the team--they were not going in for the kill. Too many 4th quarter leads were evaporating because they were playing not to lose rather than cranking up the score. Looks like they might have fixed that this week.

ALL the remaining games are winnable. Now it's on the coaches shoulders to have them as ready to play as they were against the Rams.
