Had to be fixed

With a dead owner and playing in NY...of course the giants was gonna win. No team in the NFL has played as bad as the skins today. And everyone knows the skins are better than this. Hell a high school team would have played better. BUT if the suits in the NFL office tells you to blow a game I guess ya better comply.

Re: Had to be fixed

We don't suck, we just couldn't match the emotion and intensity of the G-men. It'll be a different story when we play them again around christmas time.

Our main problem is that we are not able to run the ball. The O-line played shitty today. The D-line stinks too...injuries have decimated the D-line. We can mask those deficiencies with good QB and LB play, but that didn't happen today.

If we win one of the next two, we'll be fine heading into the second half of the season. I look for us to be 5-4 after two weeks, which is right on target for a playoff run.

Re: Had to be fixed

It's just a Redskins fans way of getting through the most embarassing loss in recent history. It was clearly an emotional victory that the Giants used as the Saints used when there is a tragic loss. Other than that, the Giants are nothing. We will see this when they come to our house.

Re: Had to be fixed

Seriously? How could we NOT get up for this game? This was the biggest game our franchise has played in a good 5 years, and they came out and played like it was like a high school scrimmage. We are playing for our lives next week. If we fall to 4-4, were in trouble.

I'm sure some games are fixed, but this one wasn't. Fixed doesn't explain the shut out. I'm sure had the game been close, the refs would've made the necessary calls to put the game out of reach for us, but it didn't come to that.

Re: Had to be fixed

If we thought we were a great team after beating S F and needed a loss like this to show us were not, then we are in deep trouble.We are not a good team the giants proved that.No wait we proved that 124 yds against 31st ranked def.We have a long way to go.

Agreed! This is why I felt it was so important for us to have picked up a victory against either Denver or Kansas City when we had the chance. It is always tough for us to win in our division, and this game was a huge step backwards for us. Now, we have to prepare for the Eagles next week, and then division leading Tampa Bay the following week. I believe if we lose next week, we're in trouble.

Maybe we should be asking how could we have matched the Giants' emotion today.

Just wasn't possible, they were playing not only for the division, but for their beloved owner.

Tough task to expect the Skins to match that determination.
