I assume I'm like everyone else and watch football every Thursday, Sunday and Monday and never in my life have I seen a team where: some kind of record is broken, a rookie has a coming out party or a vet in a slump gets back on track.

The only Redskins NFL records I can think of in recent memory are the least yards gained in a playoff win (Yay.) and the Monday Night Miracle MAYBE. It's just SO GD frustrating. I mean my cynicism is growing to an all-time high... Randy Moss hasn't had that great of a season, maybe this week he gets back on track with 200 yards receiving and 3 TDs?

THAT, and the third down conversion was actually laughable last night. We apparently can run plays of 2-3 yards on the first two downs, but when it comes to third, it's no gain or worse...

OMG! You forgot McNabb's record this season of the least completions by a winning QB in the first Philly game.

I mean I bring that up every time someone tries to give me sh*t about McNabb. Shuts them right up.

I thought you were going to join the Pats fan site and drop the skins?

Man you are so spot on here! And it has been that way for so long. If we were to make a list it would be literally unbelievable. I share your frustration.

First two statements can apply the the loss to the 2009 Detroit Lions.

The skins have been whooped bad before. The last two teams to do it were the Patriots and Giants. It happens, I am not going to blow up over this one.

[firstdown]

One good thing about this game is that the finish was not a nail biter.

[SBXVII]

On a shorter note; People wanting to can Haslett.... why? This team has been in the whole for 10+ yrs. This team needs to get the right personel to run the 3-4 before we simply say it's not working.

Shocking news to me though was hearing Fri. that M.Shanahan is not in the offensive game planning. He leaves it to his son. I thought we bought into the M.Shanahan offense or combo not the Kyle Shanahan offense alone.

[12thMan]

As much shit as we gave Zorn and Blache around here, no one hung 59 points on his team. I don't care what you say, Shanahan, both of them, should be ashamed.

I don't know if you guys have heard some of the pre-game and post game back and forth between the teams, but appearantly before the start of the game D.Hall and Laron Landry were teasing Desean Jackson about getting concussions and not being a tough guy. Of course we know what happened shortly after kick-off. Then after the game, Philly's locker room was still beefing with Laron Landry accusing him of spitting in their center's face during the game. Of course Landry denied it, but it's been Tweeted about since last night.

Then a reporter interviewed Albert Haynesworth. I don't think I've ever heard a player so cavalier after getting their ass kicked so badly. He was actually joking around saying it looked like a BCS game the way they were rolling up points. I was like, huh? Then he jumped on Vick's jock talking about he's about to get paid and this and that. Unbelievable.

[over the mountain]

the D got torched early and often. im not going to defend haslett but on some plays the players were in position to make a plya but didnt.

d jacks td on the first play, d hall lets him go and d jack beat landry on pure speed.

later on landry had a clean shot at a sack on vick but came up empty handed and vick went on to scramble for a good chunk.

i think some of our players get to hyped up for home MNF games.

its alot of things that went wrong, anyone on here who breaks down game film, itd like to hear what was more at fault, the D scheme or players missing tackles/assignments.

most of us thought this was an 8-8 team give or take a game. we are right around where we thought we would be at 4-5.

with mcnabb next year, things can only get better.

True and i could swear i saw London and Rocky have a change to lay the wood and they backed off. It made me sick to my stomach and i turned it off. Im tired of being devoted to an embarassment. And im gona try to pretend i didnt see that game.

Acyually this game got so bad so quick it was actually funny. Not in the funny haha type way just funny as in strange.

I liken it to what I would assume having your femur snapped in half would feel like. So quick and shocking that it almost doesn't hurt.

It was sad funny...like watching a feeble kid try to play football (no offense to feeble kids). I've never seen our stands clear out so early.

I guess now we know how the Broncos felt in the SB in '87
