After the Skins beat the Eagles in the next-to-last game an honest assessment of the week would have been that it was a good win for a team that really needed a win AND it was a bad week because that week mathematically eliminated the Skins from playoff contention.

I really believe that real fans would be far more saddened by the second fact than they would be elated by the first one.

A lot of the fans of this team knew we were a long shot to make the playoffs after we lost to the Bengals. Yea we had a slim chance to get in but, its not like we were on the hot streaks that got us our last two trips to the playoffs. So even if we lucky got in, its not like we were going to make a run. Many fans of this team knew before the season we were a 500 team. So if your heart was broken during our "elimination" in week 16, then i don't know what team you were watching.
