Mentioned special teams several times, they are executing and definitely not putting us in tough spots as has been the case for as long as i can remember. A huge reason we are 6-3.

Fuck them and the fucking horses they rode in on.

And I just heard Shawne Merriman on ESPN state the Cowboys still have the best chance to win the East.

Can you blame them for believing that? We're 6-3 with a two game lead within the division. But lets be real for a second. We don't have a good team. Our offense is trash. We was trash on offense before the injuries started piling up. Our defense is good, but definitely not great. Outside of the front three and our safeties. There is nothing special about our defense. Our coaches are average at best. The Cowboys and Eagles look like better teams.

A defense that shutdown one of the top offenses on the road last week? The defense you dismiss...the record, stats don't support support your argument. Swearinger, Zach Brown been playing at a all pro level...HaHa, who was shutdown last week, has been playing like probowler. The Dline forms like voltron and are one of the best units in the league. Kerrigan extremely solid as well as Dunbar. The corner play has been above average as a whole.

The offense for their struggles still have been able to move the ball on the ground. AP has been excellent. If we can get Trent, Crowder, and CT back for the stretch run...I feel confident.

The Eagles and Cowboys are better? Not so far this year...but we will find out. Both are about to get fucked with weekend with no Vaseline. bet on it.

Sorry but we do have a good team. Good enough to be 6-3. We don't have to apologize for that.

Getting tired of fans crapping on the coaches too. With all the injuries piling up and to be 6-3 you have to tip your hat to them for holding it together. Especially with the OL issues.

Mason Foster and ZB are 2 of the best LBers in football.

Maybe I am drinking too much kool-aid lately but when I look at the Dallas and Philly schedule I just don't see a for sure 9-7 record. Both have to go 5-2 in their last seven that is a tall order for any team. The Skins to get the same mark only have to go 3-4.

There are so many armchair GMs/fortune tellers that have these unreasonable expectations of the team, it's ridiculous.

[skinsfaninok]

Trent was at practice today doing drills, I bet he's back for Thanksgiving.

Update per Jay

Dunbar , TW and Hopkins are all Questionable.

Crowder and CT are out

Yeah it's ridiculous how under rated some of our guys are... Mason is one of them. Norman is another IMO. Take away the PI on Julio and he's been borderline perfect since the Saints game. Don't have a link cause I heard it on Cooley's podcast but against TB I think he gave up something like 1 completion on 4 targets and had the INT. ..

But yeah our defense is "not so good". So "not so good" that we are 6 and 3 with an offense that can't score 20 pts per game... this is ridiculous.

The reason why we are getting so much hate is because on national TV we were simply not competitive against the Saints. Not competitive against Atl and they just lost to the Browns. Loss at home against the Colts. We have 3 really bad losses. Tampa rolled up 500 yards and we were under 300 w/ 16 points, w/ the d getting 4 turnovers against a terrible defense. Sorry but these are legit reasons. We're a weak 6-3 team. It is what it is folks.

As far as the coaching, it's pretty average and we all know that. It's not news that this is not considered a top staff.

NFL is a passing/offense driven league, so they are not going to care about a strong defensive team that runs the ball well. Plain and simple.

The Redskins could have a good run and finish with a strong 11-5 or 10-6 record, and they would still not give the team any credit, because it is not a popular team.
