Re: Positives of this Game

Thats a great perspective CRedskinsRule. It hurts to lose any game but we got to put it behind us and get ready for the next game and take it out on them. We do get a chance to play the Giants at Home again. If we split it won't hurt as much.

Re: Positives of this Game

2 days later there is still plenty I am concerned about but I am looking forward to seeing our defense and offense against a team they are probably better than. I'd like to see a thorough ass-whipping on Sunday to dispel a lot of the doubts that surfaced vs. the Giants.

Re: Positives of this Game

What happens if they squeak by the Rams? Suppose it's another lackluster offensive effort?

I'm not sure about the viability of "another" lackluster effort. We played great situational football on Sunday, and were just beaten on a play-to-play basis by what most think is a better team.

The Rams team we saw last year was good enough to beat the Cowboys the next week, and nearly beat the Patriots the week after. It's imperative to point out that the Rams team that was around for three weeks last year is capable of rearing it's head again. In that case, any team would be lucky to squeak by that team.

If on the other hand, we see the Rams of last week, or most of last season, we'll probably win by three TDs. Our level of play is pretty consistent compared to other teams in the league.

I'll take the win and look to next week.

Re: Positives of this Game

With the exception of a few cornerbacks we played very physical football!

That is one thing we were built for and if we can keep punishing people good things will happen. There are a few Giants who are out for their next couple of games.

Re: Positives of this Game

Just some quick perspective:

"Stats of the Week No. 7: Seven of Jason Campbell's last 532 passes have been intercepted. Nine of Jake Delhomme's last 51 passes have been intercepted."

And which team made the play-offs last year?

Positives, HMMMMM.

Well my wings turned out great, beer was ice cold, and my annoying neighbor who seems to show up just about the time the wings are done stayed away. God he drives me crazy as he wants to steal some of my wings and strike up a conversation while I'm trying to watch the game.

I get more phone calls around gametime than the rest of the day combined. I'm going to start cutting my phone off.

Ditto, unless someone wants to give me money. That never happens.

When I cut mine back on Monday morning, I had 6 new text messages from 2 different sh*t talking giants fans. I obviously need new friends.

Haynesworth doesn't appear to be a bust. And contrary to what some others have said - I think the offensive line is playing very well.

Re: Positives of this Game

Lost in all the shuffle was this:

The Giants DID take away Moss, and the passing offense didn't suffer. Not one bit. We were actually better off NOT going to Moss.

When was the last time we could say that?
