People seem to only play the "what if" game when it comes to negatively looking at the Skins. Fact is we can play the what if game all day from all angles, fact is the Skins are 2-0 and that's all that really matters.

True, but you have to admit that all 2-0 teams are not equal. You have to take into account the strength of the opponent, the score, just how the game played out. "What if" can certainly play both ways, and honestly I think it HELPS to play it both ways when it comes to analyzing an upcoming game.

On a separate but related note, I had a chance to watch the Miami - Dallas game last night and up until the end of the 3rd quarter, into the 4th, it was very close, with Miami leading I think into the 3rd. It was honestly a very similar game to when we played Miami. A defensive struggle with a few scoring plays here and there. The real difference it seemed was that in the 4th quarter Dallas had almost the same scoring / turnover opportunities that we had, except they capitalized on them when we did not.
