There's alot of negative energy in here surrounding the playoffs well....

As far as the moment of silence goes, it's hard to keep 90,000 people quiet. However, it is quite tacky to hear the different cheers during it. The first one I heard was "We Love You Sean" from a male voice...and that kinda shot a few more. The buddy I went to the game with looked at me afterwards and said, "Some people just don't get it". I couldn't agree more.

As far as this team goes, I'm glad some are able to keep a level of optimism amongst themselves. I thank you for that, and wish I felt the same way.

However, this team is not a playoff team on several levels. Injuries have killed this team, and with a few more stemming from yesterday (Springs, Wade), it's going to be extremely difficult to go at such a pace.

The Skins have lost 4 straight, 2 of which they had leads well into the 4th quarter. While this team is a few plays away from being 8-4, the simple fact remains this team cannot finish games out.

Then you have the physical, mental and emotional exhaustion from last week's events. Playing yesterday, flying back and forth to Miami today, and playing the Bears on Thursday...while it's a noble feat, it's only going to lead to complete frustration once Friday morning rolls around, win or lose to the Bears.

As Smoot said earlier, all I can hope for is mistake free football from here on out. The playoffs are a pipe dream.
