When you are at this level your W-L will be ultimately be decided by how you do the "little things", and right now the Skins could not be worse in that department.

I really think if we can eliminate the turnovers and manage the clock a little better this team can go on a run and make the playoffs. But time is running out.

totally agree with you vs. the Giants and the Girls, but man, the Browns. they are bad and hurt, and our offense had no better defense to go up against and hone and gain some confidence. now we're going into Bmore's defense, and while i know we have the talent and the plays to win, im not sure we have the confidence or the juju. and if we lose ONE more game, even if its close, it will REALLY take a toll on the players and they wont truly WANT to execute. we need to show improvement N O W. get to the bye with some optimism.

Couldn't agree more. I think our 2004 fate will be decided in the next 2 games.

The team could be 4-0, but they are not. Were if's and but's candy and nuts oh what a Christmas there'd be.

They could also be 0-4, but they are not. Think about that possibility too...

The Redskins are what they are and that is a team that is not at the elite level of the NFL at this point and also not in the depths of the NFL either.

I'm not a fan of Vinny Cerato by any stretch of the imagination but this is not his fault.

I am frustrated by Matty's edict here that we use reason and logic in this thread:

I wanted to call for Don Breaux to be drawn and quartered and fed to the vultures just because it is obviously his white hair on the sidelines that is blinding the pass receivers and making them drop the ball.

I wanted to bash Bubba Tyrer for allowing Jon Jansen and LaVar Arrington to get hurt. What is he doing to to earn his keep here?

I wanted to suggest that the FO trade Sultan McCullough off the practice squad and cash in on his HoF potential and get Payton Manning, Marvin Harrison and next year's first and second round picks from Indy in return. And if they don't do that, then they should be boiled in mule snot. And they damned well better hurry up with that trade because the trade deadline is almost upon us.

I wanted to suggest that if the fans would just yell more everything would be just fine. Yeah, right...

I think that the Hogettes have to take some blame too. They are probably distracting to Joe Bugel because it reminds him about how a really talented offensive line can work and then he has to go and work with this bunch of no-account sorry-assed hominids.

And don't forget Danny Boy. He still looks like he has too much starch in his shorts and that has to be weighing on the players' minds as they go through their pregame stretching exercises.

Oh, did I mention the rumor that Joe Gibbs was actually kidnapped by space aliens and that his brain was replaced by Richie Kotite's? Yeah, well that too...
