Re: This will fire everybody up ...
5-1 in the division.
5 straight wins to close out the season, with 3 of those wins coming in the division. I'd say that's earning a playoff berth. Sounds like a playoff team to me no matter what way you spin things. |

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
File it away and ignore it.
53 men take the field September 11 wearing burgundy and gold; that's when the real discussion begins.

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
10 wins and 2 losses in conference is a solid playoff team to me.
It matters not what these people think. The only way you can say the Redskins D is smoke and mirrors is if you haven't seen them play more than a couple of games in the last two years, which is probably the case here. In 34 games under Williams the defense has been OUTSTANDING in 29 or 30 of those. I'd say they were at least good enough to win in 33 of the 34, the one egg was in New York last year. You can't do that with gimmicks. I think experts like this will have to quickly re-evaluate once the obvious becomes... obvious.

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
If we have so little defensive talent then why do other teams keep cherrypicking our players every off season? (Pierce, Smoot, Arrington, Clark, etc...)

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
Saunders and Gibbs' offenses are hardly different. They're from the same coaching tree aren't they?
As for taking two years to fire up Saunders' offense, well even though technically he was the WR coach in St. Louis for all intents and purposes he co-ran that offense with Vermeil. And let's see, how did he do his first year in St. Louis? Oh yeah, #1 offense in the league, Rams finish 13-3 and win the Super Bowl.

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
I think this guy who wrote this, went with little facts, and the age old Skin's hate trail. All points mentioned above were good. Saunders did well in KC his first year, just their D sucked. With the Rams, they were ranked #1, and Saunders has been known to take low profile recievers and make them produce and significantly add to the offense. Let's see, the Skins already have a good D and we have a good reciever in Moss, and let's assume for all intents and purposes of this arguement, AR-E and Lloyd are bad recievers; doesn't that basically mean with Saunders we have all parts of the equation to succeed? If this writer is trying to facts about Saunders and our recievers, his exact points actually disprove his "theory".

Re: This will fire everybody up ...
Actually, I must admit, I am quite impressed by the author of the quote. I had no idea a Giant fan knew enough words to "make" a paragraph
