Yes they do, and they also have been in the playoffs the last two years.

It is a west coast team, he loves them

Nope you are wrong.

Outside of the 49ers, history says otherwise

How did I not see it? Got a handful of players from Cali on that team. Good call.
Lol

I actually think the Cards may be a more complete team than the Panthers, that game could come down to a lot of individual matchups.

We better beat this Eagles team on Saturday.

No one showed up to the Cinci v. S.F. game. That's what it looked like at kick-off.

I have seen sparsely attended games, but nothing like this at the pro level.

That's the difference between the 49ers vs Redskins fans, I know a lot of SF season ticket holders selling their tickets as soon as they lose (I'm sure many skins fans have too). The difference is after 23 years Redskins fans still show up win or lose.

[NoCalHail]

That is about what Oakland's stadium looked like the last time the 'Skins played here. It seemed like there was barely 10k.

I once got 'Skins vs. Niners tickets for $28

[KI Skins Fan]

My new signature. You like that?

Works out perfectly. We need them to lose to NYG, and than Beat the eagles.
Can he appeal or will Obscenely Dirty Bitch have to sit out vs Vikes?

It only matters if we lose to the eagles. If we were to lose to the eagles we would want NYG to beat the Vikings so they are playing with a chance against the Eagles.

At this point there are only 2 scenarios that get the Redskins in the playoffs, the first (and preferable) is

beat Philly. Then we are in.

The second, and much worse odds,
lose to philly,
then have NYG beat Philly and we beat Dallas.

NYG's Minnesota game has no direct bearing on us.

if Philly wins out they are in.

if we lose out, and the Giants beat Philly, the Giants are in.


on a side note,

I liked the change in tact at Gruden's press conference yesterday. Until now, all I had heard - and heard players repeating - is it's all out in front of them. Yesterday, he changed the mantra to we have a responsibility as a first place team to play sound solid football. It is a subtle shift, but if the team takes it on, then that shows that he really is leading the locker room and team, and that is a good sign.

Yes if we beat eagles its done but, if we lose than beat dallas wouldnt we need vikes to beat gints n gints to beat eagles? That would put us at 8-8, eagles at 7-9, gints at 7-9? Vikings beating giants has a huge impact on us?
Edit: or do we own tiebreaker over gints even if they go 8-8? Eithet way i want them to lose.

[CRedskinsRule]

no, we have the tie breaker with the Giants, so if we tie them at 8-8 we go in so if NYG loses to the Vikings, they are eliminated

The Giants have to win out and hope we lose both games.

So (if we lose to Philly) we in fact want the Giants to beat the Vikings so that they play the Eagles for a meaningful game.

Consider this: if we lose Saturday, then Fox has both the Skins/Cowboys, and the NYG/Philly game at 1pm on Sunday the 3rd, and the division champ could rest on the outcome of both games with the following scenario:
Philly wins, they win the division at 8-8 with a better division record then the Skins
NYG win, Redskins win, Skins win the division at 8-8 with a better div record then NYG
NYG win, Redskins lose, NYG win the division at 8-8 with Skins and Philly both at 7-9

edit: actually we own the conf. percentage tiebreaker with the Giants if we tie them at 8-8
