Thirtyfive2seven Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I'd hate to say this but it looks real dumb to have San Diego, Jacksonville, and Tennessee ahead of us. Tennessee would get man handled by the skins right now. Fact. Look at their offensive production? Give me a break! Jacksonville: good team, solid defense, but I think we're ranked higher. San Diego: They have one good game and they're tops? Let go of last season, the Redskins have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr1 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Hell is starting to freeze over...but seriously, #9? Our defense puts us in the top five... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydean Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 SAN DIEGO CHARGERS IN FRONT OF US? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? a norv turner coached team that is struggling, shouldn't even make the top 15 even though they rolled over denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 hey, who cares. What matters more are the W's, making the Paloffs, and the W's in the Paloffs. I don't care if they rank us 32 all season as long as we win. So far we are looking good, hopefully the injuries yesterday were not serious. HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

jschlesi Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Why do so many feel the need to blast a ranking's credibility when it ranks the Skins low but applaud it as accurate and insightful when it ranks the Skins high??? Knives are only sharp on one side for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Anyone else continue onto the next page?: "Offensive Players of the Week Washington QB Jason Campbell, who is rounding into one of the best 10 or 12 quarterbacks in the league. Playing without his top receiver, Santana Moss, against a Detroit team that came in with a 3-1 record, Campbell completed 23 of 29 passes for 248 yards, with two touchdowns and no interceptions. The most noticeable thing about him is his presence, confidence and total command of the Gibbs/Saunders combo platter of an offense. "As an offense,'' Campbell said postgame via the cellular, "we're doing a good job of not forcing things right now.'' There's a lot more than that going on in Washington. If the 'Skins hadn't gone somnambulant in the second half against the Giants in Week 3, they'd be 4-0." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEANDWARF Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Should we be surprized with S.I. ranked Chargers ahead of us? Remember last spring when one of their writers responded to a question about who he was going to elect to the Hall Of Fame? He responded by saying despite all the stats Redskins fans e-mail him, he was still going to vote Andre Reed over Monk. Granted it was Dr Z that said this, but you know "Birds of the Feather".

terpskins Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 How can GB, SD, and Tennessee be ranked ahead of us. SD straight up sucks. GB is, much like the Lions, a one trick pony. And Tennessee. Well, I kind of like them, but they are painful to watch. Though, they do figure out a way to win. Still, SD and GB. That's BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpskins Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 The cool thing is, JC is really coming together. The running game is obviously there. And the Defense is back. This could be a great team. Just want Coach Gibbs to have these guys ready to play each and every week. Hopefully, a win against GB propels us into the top 5. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkabong82 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 LMAO at his write up of the Colts. RB is the easiest position to fill in the NFL? Tell that to the Packers. Just another line to add to the bogus "RBs are a dime a dozen" myth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuong9 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Still, SD and GB. That's BS. I'm pretty sure very few people besides us fans think that we have much of a chance at beating the Packers or the Chargers. It's kind of like the Philly game earlier this year. The next few weeks could change that though. And those rankings have never meant anything to me anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of like the Philly game earlier this year. The next few weeks could change that though.And those rankings have never meant anything to me anyways. The rankings are meaningless from a football sense. But, I do like the positive pub. As for our ranking, I actually agree with it. If we had one the NYG game, I would have wanted us in the top 5, but losing that game, and the way we lost that game, was pretty unacceptable. I'm pretty sure the Redskins will beat the Packers. Have watched two Packer games so far and they are decent. But do not run AT ALL. And Favre still makes some really stupid decisions at times. Hopefully, it'll be like yesterdays game. I was just surprised at those three teams being ranked ahead of us because SD actually has a losing record, we are far more balanced than GB, and more more explosive than Tennessee (Vince Young, notwithstanding).

McMetal Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well, as a longtime Skins fan, I'm excited about JC but still apprehensive. We've been burned so many times before, and consistently quality QB's are so difficult to find. He does seem to be growing before our eyes though, and so far they've brought him along at just the right pace, it seems. King has always liked JC...he raved about the pick at the time, as I recall.

[[ghost]] Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 #9 is way too high. I wish he would have ranked the Gints higher than us, and had us at #15 with a comment like "A lucky win against a hapless Lions team, the Skins were fortunate to come off of a bye week against a strugglign team."
