i was watching Dallas beat the sad Cardinals, and as I kept peeking over to the Redskins game it was the first time I have ever thought that the NFL was fixed. 36-0?!?!?! What!!!

Re: Season over?

How can it be over when we still got games to play?

We may have lost a terrible game....but there are 9 more games to play, that's plenty. Now, If we go on like a four or five game losing streak....then it may be time to call it quits for this season....

Re: Season over?

I voted no, but after how the team had seemed to come together since the last 4 minutes of the cowboy game, this game was extremely depressing and frustrating to watch. Why in the hell can't the defense stop the run outside the tackle box? All the missed tackles, the dropped passes, and the piss poor protection brought back frightening memories from the Turner/Schott./Spurrier regimes just when the team was making incredible strides to gaining respect again. The season is not lost if they rebound against the Eagles cuz this could and should ignite an inferno under the skins but it could also easily prove a crushing blow, the next couple weeks will show us which. All facets of the game were terrible today and they definitely have an ass load of tape to review, but I'm glad Ramsey didn't do much cuz if a qb controversy came out of a game like this then the season would definitely be screwed. I hope to high heaven that Gibbs and Co absolutely tear into every single player who saw action today and get them ready to exploit all of the weaknesses of the Eagles that the Broncos took advantage of today. I believe the team can bounce back from this and if this team finally plays with a bit of an attitude, we could see the team we've been hoping to see since Gibbs version 1.

Re: Season over?

If the season were over today, both wild card teams would come from the NFC South, where three teams are tied at 5-2.

I guess all that talk about how good the NFC East was premature.

Re: Season over?

Moss dropped passes and fumbled, Cooley fumbled, Brunell threw a pick, Arrington missed a TD saving tackle, Sean Taylor missed tackles, Betts fumble on KR, OL couldn't block all day run or pass. Everyone made mistakes and played horribly. No way I've given up. As redrock skins said niners beat the 5-2 Bucs today. Maybe the Bucs will trade us Rice for Ramsey??? Doubtful. Anything can happen on any Sunday. We have a good team that made mistakes from our stars all the way down.
The center of the OL seemed to collapse far too often today for any kind of offense to perpetuate itself. 1 positive of the game I thought was assuring everyone that Ramsey still enjoys spending way to much time on his back. Next week Prime Time against the failing Eagles @ home. Can't wait, GO SKINS!!!

I can't even comprehend how anyone can say the season is over.

Re: Season over?

The Giants looked as good as they are ever going to look yesterday. There were prepared to play, and inspired to do so.

The Redskins looked as bad as professionals can look. We gave up huge plays on the ground, our pass defense was below average, our offense was putrid. Everything that could go wrong, did.

This was "the Perfect Storm" of crappiness. We will never look as bad as we did yesterday.

This team is better than they looked. Maybe not as good as we'd all hoped, but certainly better than that.

BrudLee, I would highly suggest you taking a look at the ES article. I wonder if this was a COINCIDENCE... HMmmMMmm...

Re: Season over?

I voted no, it was the day before halloween I think Gardner was dressing up as Skins players and dropping everything that came his way. It was just a day that the Giants were fired up and the Skins just did not match their level of intensity. It had to be hard for an opposing them to watch all of the pregame stuff and get fired up to beat them. I think the stuff with all the family on the field before the game should have been done during half time. Its not realy fair to make the other team participate in the morning of the other teams owner. They should have just allowed a moment of silence before the game. I'm not making any excuses we played realy bad, but it has to be hard to get fired up as the grand daughter and all his other granchildren are out on the field morning their loss before the game.

Re: Season over?

There are three things you have to do right in the NFL to win.

1. Run the ball
2. Stop the run
3. Win the turnover battle

If you can do that consistently, you will have at least a 70% winning percentage.

WE DID NONE OF THE ABOVE YESTERDAY.

If we fix these problems, then the season is far from over. If not, look forward to the number 5 draft spot again. It is that simple.

Figure out what happened with our O-line yesterday, and half the problems go away. We will get back to our ball control game and protect our D-line' run defense by keeping them off the field.

Get some help on that D-line to stop the run outside. Skins do a good job clogging up the middle, but the outside is killing us. Fix that, and you can actually overcome a turnover or two.

But with all three things going wrong, no chance to win, ever. Yesterday was a very miserable day for skins fans. Hope there are no repeats in the future.

Unfortunately, we traded away this years draft spot to the Denver Broncos so we could get Jason Campbell. SO we couldnt even look forward to that.
