Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

anything is possible but knowing us we'll probably choke against either Carolina Tampa Detroit or Kansas city. KC played baltimore very well, Detroit barely lost to us last year. Tampa played dallas well for 3 1/2 quarters, and carolina was a playoff team last year. so I dunno

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

Yes, we could. But we could also go 1-5. Seriously, with this team, you NEVER can tell. They've certainly got the talent to go 5-1, but they've got an amazing ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory--even, paradoxically, in a win!

One game at a time, fellas.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

Lets hope our offense use the next four games as an enimic person would use iron to strenghthen his blood. We are not bad we are on the verge of exploding on offense I no u guys felt it. I was loving the exacution, but our red zone was enimic, yes we all seen it. Im thinking we should start taking shots at the 25-30 yard line. We missed out on 21 pionts yes I know but in two months if the Rams are on some type of roll, then we will look back on this game as a good deffensive game which it was so I feel good about my Redskins but Im the type of fan that thought after CC47 TD catch last week. we still had a chance to win with an on side kick and quick TD strike. Well what i mean we have a very good chance at 5-1.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

This is a very important stretch for us.

We have to put away the awful teams.
Also, It's a key point in the year where it gives JC the opportunity to get in rhythm to we can go into the more difficult games with some momentum.

If JC can't come out of that stretch looking sharp, Then he probably shouldn't be on the team next year.
Same goes for Zorn.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

5-1 sounds about right. Just enough to get the fans in a frenzy right before our annual November collapse . Actually, looking at the schedules, there's a good chance that when we play each of our next four games, all four teams will be winless win they face us.

Seriously though, with the way our second half schedule looks, we're going to need that kind of start to have legit postseason ambitions.

Not only Zorn and Campbell as you have mention but alot of other players as well need to take a walk. As usual most fans always point to the teams failures as the QB and coach. How about the defense getting off the field on 3rd downs. How about the WR making plays and the O-line opening up some holes. It is a team effort win or lose.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

Personally the prospect of 5-1 is quite possible but we need to get the offense going. I think that winning the Philadelphia game is big and i would sacrifice a loss to one of the potential wins to beat them. I would guess we could be 5-2 or 6-1 but after a bye, how many wins are we going to get? Im still thinking we are a 9 or 10 win team IF we get the wins we should have during this stretch.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

The only game I have confidence of us winning is next week vs the Lions there is no guarantee we will win either. Delhomme sucks, but Carolina still is a solid team. TB is probably a win, unless we play like we just did. Chiefs are going to be much improved I think by the time we play them, maybe Carolina also. Bottom line is we get the red zone problem fixed ASAP and the issue is moot and we just still might take the division.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

It looks good now, but with our Offense, I say no. Detroit is alot better this season, and TB always plays us pretty good.. 4-3 at the break is what i'm saying..

I'm on board with that I was just telling my wife the same thing, I am worried about the Detroit game, we could realistically lose this game.

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

We only go 5-1 if we can score more than 9 points a game. Preferably at least three TDs a game. But, if we can mysteriously fix our red zone woes this week, who knows?

Re: Could the Redskins go 5-1?

We may still be the 2-6 team we hoped was left behind last year. After that 9-7 win, I'm going to be scared of Detroit. There are always upsets and we seem to be the one everybody picks on. The 'Skins just can't seem to play with much agression. DeAngelo Hall better get his act together or our secondary is going to blow up this season. So it's more than just the offensive line that needs help.

Luckily, the 2-6 last year lost to the Rams and this team beat them...although it was an ugly win, it's still a win.

This year's team is MUCH deeper on both sides of the ball.

I believe the offense will start clicking, although it's painful to watch until it does.

5-1 or 4-2 should be a reality.
