Warhead36 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Having a Bye in Week 3 really hurt us. Including the playoffs, we basically had to play 14 consecutive meaningful weeks of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truskinsfan18 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 very,very true. Did you see how our guys p;layed after a bye? Brunell lit seattle up. Imagine, if we can get a 1st round bye next year for the playoffs, we could do some damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfamily1 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 We also had the bye early in the season last year. I think all the bottom feaders from the year before have early byes and the playoff teams have byes later in the year. Hopefully that means we have a bye around the middle/end of next year.

airtime Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Funny... I was thinking the same thing this morning. Then, I began wondering when Seattle's by week was. Guess what? 10/30. So they basically played eight weeks, got another week off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimReefa Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 The timing of the bye is bad when you look at the schedule, but I was glad the bye was when it was. The fact is I don't think the Redskins would have beaten anybody after that win in Dallas. It would have been a short week coming off of an huge win on the road that had probably emotionally sapped the team. And obviously, looking back on the season, they couldn't have afforded another loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 This is true, we also had a high strength schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Paint Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Early byes suck bad. I hope our bye next year is in the middle of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
