Skins feeling the pressure

The Skins have to beat the lions by at least 20 points to "win" this game and our offense isn't ready to put that much up on the board right now, so technically this game is not winnable.


All of this pressure is not going to get resolved after Sunday's game against the lions. People will just say you were supposed to beat them if we win on Sunday.

this is exactly it- its virtually a lose lose situation...yet the skins organization put themselves in this position. They price, market and sell themselves as an ELITE team with ELITE talent. Why is it unreasonable for us (as fans) to expect to see elite results? For over a decade now, they've paraded mediocre team after mediocre team in front of us all while trumpeting the same song and dance "we have the talent! we just need to execute!" When is enough, enough? when will it be acceptable for fans to demand progress? Do you get what I'm saying? Its not that we aren't patient, its just that after a decade of treading water, we are tired- how long before we drown?
