Luck or no luck the bottom line is we suck! I love my REDSKINS whether they win or lose but we are a bad offensive football team and have an overrated defense. Next year, new coach, new quarterback, here we go again.................

Add this to a shotty offensive line, you're going to have the same problems.

Luck? What do you call 2-2 with this team if not lucky?

Well earned.

Seriously, we've completely deserved our 2 wins against the non-schedule we've played.

Expected W-L: 1.8-2.2. <--Per PFR.

Just an FYI, that's the football glossary you cut and pasted.
Also, Bill James theory has a flaw in it when it comes to football. He uses the points scored vs points against to dictate his numbers. He does not factor in luck (like how we beat the rams). The pythagorean theory doesn't work well in football like it does baseball.

No, we did not deserve our 2 wins (maybe the Tampa game...sort of...but no way the Rams). We are lucky to be 2-2, and we have very little to hold our heads up high on. We are not playing well enough to beat decent teams, and we are barely beating (or luckily beating) subpar teams...even lost to a subpar team and should have lost to another.

I'm not saying we deserved to lose those games but I'm not going to use some expected win stat to say that we earned those well.

How did the losses come about?
