The Skins had 1 turnover through 5 games, and 1 game with 3. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt for now on the last game.

I think so,I think it was a fluke we went 5 games without a turnover,that just doesnt happen,as a matter of fact it had never happenned before in nfl history,so to think were going to stay on that same path IMO is very wishful thinking.Now hopefully there wont be anymore 3 turnover games,a more manageable 1 turnover game.

Is it just me or does it seem like over the yrs when we have turnovers they usually turn into HUGE plays for the other team.Cant we just fumble the ball and somebody fall on it instead of running for a td? It seems like over the yrs theres been a few times where we would just dominate a team but the turnovers would kill us because they werent just fumbles or ints,they were fumbles or ints that were returned for TDS!!
I can remember a game againts the eagles in the 80's I think,Gerald Riggs was carving up the eagles,had over 200 yrds rushing,was going in for a score to put the game away and fumbled and it was returned for an eagles td,eagles win. That kinda shit always seems to happen to us,or maybe i just think that cause Im a skin fan,maybe other fans feel the same way about their teams

5 games without a turnover is rare, but I also think coughing it up 3 times in a game is almost as much of a fluke for this team.

Rare,and lucky. Because, instead of fumbling 4 times against the Rams, if we had fumbled say, once more against the Saints, twice against the Cowboys, and once vs. the Eagles (same ball security %), we'd be staring 2-4 in the face right now, and 0-3 in the division.

Even with the loss to the Rams, we're clearly better off the way things HAVE worked out as opposed to what could have been.
