Yeah, a 9-7 playoff team.

That's nothing to be ashamed about. Anything can happen in the playoffs and this team appears to be peaking at the right time.

Didn't the Steelers win the SB as the 6th seed?

That has not been talked about to much (that I have heard or read), this team is getting healthier, peaking at just the right time. I heard the boys on ESPN saying that nobody will want to play the Skins in the first round, as they Hot.
True or not, it made me feel good, and I am damn proud of my Skins regardless of the outcome of the Dallas game.

All I'm saying is the odds are stacked against the Skins. Got to win 3 road playoff games to get to The Promised Land and that isn't going to be easy.

The odds are definitely stacked against the Redskins this postseason. The team will be playing on the road without half of its starters in the secondary, McIntosh, the starters on the right side of the O-line, and their #1 QB. And that assumes that the team beats Dallas, which probably will not be as easy as some expect.

That said, I'll be happy with A playoff appearance. Perhaps my standards are too low, but after the playoff drought from 1992-1998 and 2000-2004 I just want to see our team play in January. Moreover, with all that this team has gone through this season, I think it's reasonable to hang our hats on a wildcard spot.
