Reason for (Cautious) Optimism

Unless Washington's defense steps it up a few notches, this is going to be a very lopsided game.

On the other hand, I think they can beat the Giants and Titans, so if they're 3-3, three weeks from now, that'll be better than I expected initially.

Tell me where logic and fanatical fit together. That's what doesn't make much sense.

The glass is half empty people will try to say they're just being realistic... I say what's the fun in that? The Redskins are one of my few escapes in life, I try to be as positive and optimistic as possible because the alternative of being "realistic" wouldn't be worth it to me.

Just my view.
