3-2 against the remaining teams in contention...I think it just shows that we can play with the best of them, but not consistently...

3-0 against NFC championship teams
0-2 against AFC championship teams

In fact, 7-5 against NFC overall and 1-3 against AFC overall.
Maybe we could petition the NFL for no games against AFC?

Is there not a Giant board to go cry on. Seriously man. I don't know why you come here this is for Redskins fans. It would be like me hanging out in a gay bar, "oh I am not gay I just like the drink specials here".

GIANTONE is usually pretty cool, but that was funny. I got no problems with him. I say let him cry, we are all watching the rest of the playoffs from the couch. It's like having you very own pin cushion within a keyboards reach.

That has about as much meaning as the Pats bragging that they went 18 and 1 last year.

I think it shows how matchups are so important now (maybe more than ever). For whatever reason our D shut down the Eagles when nobody else was able to after Donovan's benching but Shaun Hill found open receivers. Are the Skins wildly inconsistent or just match up better against some teams than others?

As for the NFC champs, you are right, and that will be next week. Pats are still the AFC Champs. Neither team is repeating.

Re: Philly vs. Arizona-Good sign, bad sign or sign of danger?

The Redskins are 3-0 against the teams in the NFC Championship Game.

Let me ask a slightly different question:


A. Is it better to be 3-0 against the teams in the NFC Championship Game?
OR
B. Is it better to be in the NFC Championship Game?


I prefer B.

LOL, that's kinda lame. I'd argue your reign ended at about 4:45 yesterday afternoon when you were eliminated. C'mon Giantone, you're typically better than that.

Were those teams any good when you played them?

When we beat the Eagles in Philly they were good, and when we held them to 3 points (something you all couldnt do) they were raking in the points and we also held Arizona to 17 points, come on Giantone I know you guys lost and everything but its time to let it go and get over it. Now you are just whining
