All great wins. I just don't think this team does enough things well enough to be a playoff team.

I feel better about this team at 3-3 and then I did about the 6-2 Zorn start, last nights game would have been a blown out if Zorn was coaching.

Think about his prime time Steelers game last year I want to hide under my bed after that one.

The Redskins held their own against the Colts and had a chance to win it at the end not much more yo ucan ask of a team in it's first year under a new coach and playing with practice squad players.

I think this is a playoff making team. I don't see how we win a playoff game though. At the end of the day this team is better than last year. I'll take that for now.

Bingo. Pun intended.

And if there's anything that gets proven week after week, it's that the NFC is wide open, and there isn't a team in the conference that's gaining any sort of foothold.

This. There's no Pittsburgh, NY Jets or Ravens in the NFC... how can anyone say we're any worse than the top NFC teams right now? The only game I'd really like back is that Rams game- but they're actually not the worst team in the league anymore. The conference is still wide open. And there's tons of football to play.

Truth. Honestly I feel we could run the table on the NFC teams left on our schedule. Now of course we won't, and there's probably equal chance we could get shut out too, but too ma ny people forget just how bad we were last year. That we won 4 games is a minor miracle.

I honestly think we can and will win the NFC East. The only team really standing in the way of that is NY. We will beat Philly on MNF. I think we will take Dallas. Its just how we play NY cause they have had our number.

We have the talent to do so, and we're flying under everyone's radar right now. I think going 2-0 in the next two games would set up nicely for the bye week. I would like for once to see us win a game decisively. While it is better to win ugly than lose pretty, eventually those mistakes and missed opportunity bite you in the a$$ when you play a very good team like the Colts.

[SFREDSKIN]

If the Redskins improve in the following areas, they will be a playoff team:

Stop stupid penalties on returns by the special teams

Stop the runs up the middle, haven't all season long

Stop biting on play action plays (not so much last 2 games)

Start using Haynesworth more

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

I'm not upset at all over this loss. We faught tooth and nail with the SB runner-up from a year ago. I see us beating Chicago, Detroit, and Philly coming of the bye.

Why was the fumble forced by fletcher blown dead. I hate when they blow it too premature. with laRons speed, that could have been 6 or close to it

Watching the post game news conference. A few of the players seem upset that Haynesworth wasn't allowed to play. Shannahan better get this issue in check quick or there will be problems.

who seemed upset? Other than the comcast crew? We all know AH has conditioning issues, if he had been on the field on those long drives of indy he may have had a heart attack!

The players didn't say anything but it was the hesitation along with the body demeanor. Buchannon seemed to have issues with it along with Alexander just now.
