Like I've said, such collapses have plagued us for years, and have plagued us much more than they have plagued other teams, so the fact that all athletes today "are there for the prestige and money" does not explain why they are disproportionately playing for the Redskins.

But are they breaking down, losing concentration, etc or are they just getting outplayed?

If they are breaking down, why did we only lose to the Giants by 7 points, and to the Pack by 3 points? Shouldn't it have gotten ugly?

Thing is, there wasn't (and isn't) anything at issue with the psyche of this team. The Giants played really good football in the second half. Just give them credit and move on.

The Redskins did not play good football in the second half of the Packers game. It was the first time in three weeks this team had struggled. Why all the concern? Why must we expect it to happen again?
