New rankings: Skins 14th in Dr Z's & 9th in Sportsline

CNNSI's NFL page even features a blurb about how Dr Z has come around to moving the skins up in his rankings. Seems as though someone was truly impressed with the win against Dallas.

I must admit I'm shocked at the recognition. As much as I try NOT to buy into the hype either good or bad, I still like the props

I wonder what impressed him, other than the last few minutes there wasn't much to be impressed about, unless we're talking about the D.

Granted, the Niners don't have a stellar defense. But maybe after seeing the Cowboys rack up 30 points on them (along with the 30 or so they scored on San Diego) Dr. Z is impressed with the way we basically shut that offense down.

Plus TheMalcolmConnection did Dr. Z some favors in the parking lot of the SI building....does anybody have some Scope? Giggity-Giggity!

I think that the barrage of hostile email just finally pushedhim over the edge. At the end of his description he writes, "As poor Uncle Don said in his famous final show for WEAF Radio about 65 years ago, "That ought to hold the little b- - - - - - s," and he wasn't talking about his e-mailers."

It looks like the crazy Redskin fans have finally gotten to the Dr. I've never gone that far (writing to him), but it's nice to know that we have some crazy, belligerent emailers among our ranks.

I like the graph showing ranking history (if you click on the team name).

That gives a much better perspective.

Possibly because they worked us for 56 minutes and 14 seconds. Still, 2-0 is better than 2-1.

Honestly, I'm suprised we've moved up that much. Honestly, looking at the Dallas game compared to the Chicago game, I actually thought we looked worse offensivley (obviously minus the ending). Hopefully that last couple mintues was an awaking of some kind and our offense will turn it around.

Our defense = Dominant!

Woo Hoo. We got some love.

I think that the real answer to the 49ers is that they have been a bit underestimated this season. Pasting ANY team with that many points is an achievement, let alone a great Dallas defense. It would be wise to keep an eye cocked in their general direction since we too will have to play them come Week 7.

Re: New rankings: Skins 14th in Dr Z's & 9th in Sportsline

Stupid son of a bitch.

What the hell is he doing, he is doing this on purpose, wtf. Look at the beggining, usually beginnings in power rankings are about why the number 1 team is one and what was good about the week his is 5 sentences long and all of it deals with redskins e-mails. "If your team got wasted in this column, please, no nasty e-mails. I feel worse about it than you do. Hold off for a week. I will straighten it out in a subsequent opus, as the folks in the D.C. area will learn, in a shocking surprise move guaranteed to quicken their senses." what is he talking about, i never understand what the hell this man is saying. Someone explain please. Is he saying that if a team got a bad rank that he will correct it soon as he gave the skins a bad rank and now has corrected it?

He is toying with us, how the hell is he impressed with our win over dallas. it was a win yes, but was it impressive? Why would a stupid son of a bitch like that say something like that? He is making us second guess our own team.

I am mad becaues he says good things about us-- i must have really lost it now but doesn't this just seem too wierd? No amount of e-mails could do that? I have ZERO respect for him if he did that just so people wouldn't e-mail him with death threats

Once a bitch always a bitch
