Redskins vs. Giants Official Game Thread

Question.

IF (so I don't get called out for being a fairweather fan later) we lose this game, do we still have a shot at the playoffs? or is this a must win?

I don't think it's a must win yet.. it would help a great, great deal and essentially make the playoffs ours to lose, but we can still make the playoffs without this win

The magic number is 10 wins I think

I'm sorry but ur very naive. We're already out of the playoffs, and this loss will only put us further away from that last playoff spot. Although, given their showing, why even bother with even making it to the playoffs.

What are you talking about? Even with a lost, which we won't, we're still very much in the hunt.

We're far from not making the playoffs.

Hahah already out of the playoffs??? It's week 13 and a win here would put us securely in the 5th wild card spot with Dallas having a much harder schedule left than us...

But if the team keeps playing like they have so far then I completely agree with you, this season is over.

Dallas' win on Thursday put them in the 6th spot. Right now Tampa Bay or Carolina are going to pick up the 5th spot. So technically right now we're a half game away from the 6th spot, a loss would put us a game and a half away.

Agreed, id love to see us make the playoffs like every other redskin fan. But if we are going to go and choke id rather see us miss the playoffs rather then then breaking my heart again.

Of course we have a shot. But getting beat at home (AGAIN) to a division rival on Sean Taylor day to fall to 2-3 in the division is BAAAD.

Wow. We're just not very good.

This is not a must win game...in fact it is easily the most likely one to lose followed by the ravens and eagles...but if we lose today, we May have to win the rest..but it is entirely possible to lose 2 and still make it.
It would be better if any losses were not NFC losses though.

I had no realistic hope of winning todays game

I had hope, but nothing really concrete to base it on. I was at least hoping we'd keep it close, but that may be out of the question too.
