You forgot about the radiers... they are just about as bad as the texans

...And we lost to them last year.
Assuming we don't lose to Texas, things could start coming together for us. It gives us more time for CP and Springs to get healthy. I think the offense will start to gel around week 7. (This is what a number of people said before all the hysteria.) Remember, Saunders uses a lot of timing routes, and they take some time to work out. But it's so bad right now, the defenders are in the middle of all our screens. Once Springs gets back, we should be able to hold on a lot more 3rd downs. That means we won't always have to go a long way to get points. In addition, Saunders will have a better idea of what does and doesn't work with this team.

(I also want to say thanks to the Cowboys fans for their posts. They seem to be more (cautiously) optimistic for our team than some of the Redskins fans!)
