Did our win in philly not count? Was that preseason? Did I miss something?

It's always fun watching Dallas lose regardless of what's going on with the Skins.

dallas D did not play well, don't pretend they did.
Did not force any interceptions while brady threw the ball a million times

Against the lions we seemed to play a lot better. The o-line was opening big holes and the running backs (esp. Sellers) were running really hard. Also, the receivers weren't dropping half the passes, which is what happened yesterday and in the second half of the giants game. Whether that was because we were playing well or because they sucked is beyond me. I know that in the second half we controlled the ball and really wore them out, so that played a huge role in the win.

You're right, the offense has not been playing that well but there could be a number of reasons for that. I guess the chief reason would be the overall health of the o-line. We've been missing our starting right guard and right tackle for almost the whole year, so our running game has suffered greatly. On top of that the receivers seem to be dropping more passes than normal but I'm not sure what's causing that.

The most frustrating thing about the Skins over the past few seasons, for me, has been the inconsistency. We'll have a great defense and almost no offense one year and then the next we'll have a top notch running game and a bottom feeding defense. I just hope that this year the D will keep it up and the offense will get healthy and start playing the way they appear to be capable of.

The reason why the skins offense played well against the lions and had a lot of mistakes against the packers was not being able to adjust to the weather.

And I'm not making any excuses for them or excusing their mistakes because of the weather. What I am saying is - they adjusted very poorly to the weather, to say the least. This is something they need to correct; to me, the most important thing they need to correct. If they adjust well to the weather conditions in that game, they would have cut down on the mistakes. If they cut down on the number of mistakes they made (especially late in the game), they win the game.

That's how you learn how to win games, correct your mistakes.

The Brady hating at this point is really ridiculous.

The guy put up good numbers with average WRs for years, now he has a great WR corps. and he's putting up great numbers. He has the rings, the wins, and now he's putting up the insane numbers that only Manning was doing previously.

Sean Taylor · 10-15-2007, 11:46 AM

Brady is the man.

Peyton I hate his personality but he's a great QB.

Brady is the man.

I'm with Skinsfan69 on this (I find myself agreeing with him more and more...next comes the swarm of locusts I suppose

). Brady is a good, tough QB and the hate is kind of ridiculous.

freddyg12 · 10-15-2007, 02:28 PM

Bit of a silly debate here. Tom Brady will have to start sponsoring dog fights AND bet on nfl games to not make the hall of fame at the rate he's going.

On a more positive, perhaps delusional note; Dallas has a bye after next week's Minnesota game. The vikes are no pushover, but it would be a pretty major upset if they beat the pokes. I'm dreaming of an upset!

And while they're at home on their bye week, they watch the Skins upset the Pats!

BleedBurgundy · 10-15-2007, 07:22 PM

What is this debate about? Brady is a HOF qb. End of story. Is he a bitch for not taking big shots or is he intelligent enough to know that his team needs him standing upright to be successful...? I'm putting my money on the latter...

GusFrerotte · 10-15-2007, 10:04 PM

All I have to say after watching the game is that we can count on 3 automatic losses between the two teams. With our decimated O line and Santana out to lunch this season, no way we beat NE and we will be swept by the Boys. It sucks but that is how it looks as of now.

That's the spirit, Gus! Way to focus that negative energy!

GusFrerotte · 10-15-2007, 10:14 PM

Do you actually think that in our present state that we can beat the Pats or Cowboys? I mean if we came out of GB relativey healthy even with the loss I could have some hope. But we took some losses there that might take a bit of time to heal and a bitch of a AFC road trip coming up. I just don't see it JW.
