Zguy28 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/9116677 On NFL.com's Sharpe Edge, Shannon claims the only team in the AFC playoffs that the NFC contenders can beat is Jacksonville. He does give kudos to the Skins though on turning things around and controlling their playoff chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking Deadman Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 No suprise there....Colts, Broncos and Bengals are all tough teams. Although, unless the Pats are in the Superbowl again.....I don't think anybody right now is guaranteed the trophy (especially with the Colts having issues at the moment.)

TD_washingtonredskins Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I agree with him...but anything could happen if it's down to one game. I think a team like Chicago could really frustrate the AFC's rep if they made it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifty Gut Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 considering we haven't beat an AFC team in two years, I gotta agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FBChick Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Personally I don't buy that. The AFC teams have just as many issues going on. Yes, the Broncos are good, BUT they only beat Washington by 2, Dallas by 3 and lost to the Giants. The Bengals are good, but they aren't play-off harden yet. Patroits and Steelers are doing better, but then so are the Skins. The mighty Colts still have to figure out how to deal with what they have going on right now, until they recover.. I'm not sure I see them making it anymore. I honestly think this will be one of the better/ closer Superbowls in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riggins44 Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I believe the Colts will be fired up with a new sense of purpose when Dungy returns. They'll be on a mission that takes them to the Lombardi Trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellGreenFan Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I think that's wrong, I think the NFC is a lot stronger this year. Both Seattle and Chicago(with Grossman now at QB) are capable of beating any AFC team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zguy28 Posted December 27, 2005 Author Share Posted December 27, 2005 considering we haven't beat an AFC team in two years, I gotta agree Yeah but consider how close just our games were with AFC opponents this year. Broncos 19-21 L Chiefs 21-28 L Raiders 13-16 L Chargers 17-23 L All pretty close and down to the wire. I think the skins have a real shot at it this year to at least make it to the second round. In all of our losses we have a combined point difference of 56 points. Minus the 36-0 shellacking by the giants, and we lost 5 games 20 points total. Add how great the Redskins have been clicking lately. Whew! I'm getting goosebumps here from the excitement! :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
