HA...let's see us string together a few good games before we decide. I think what the Oakland game proved is that we have the horses to be good. We have a long ways to go before we will have proved if we are a good enough team to play consistently over a 4-month stretch to get to the playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's time some of us take a step back. We looked bad Week 1, and everybody was saying we'd win 3 games. We looked dominate on Sunday, so now we're definitely going to the playoffs. The overreaction and emotional swings need to simmer down. The truth is somewhere in between. We aren't as sloppy as the Eagles game made us look, nor we as dominant as the Raiders game made us look. It's a long season, and we have 13 games left. Let's just take it one game at a time and see what happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just pointing that out and nothing more. That just caught my eye. I'm not saying we are going to the playoffs, after all; I am one of the doom and gloomers who predicted 5-11. I also predicted a close loss on Monday. I hope they prove me wrong, they have the last 2 weeks. Maybe I should pick against them all season and they will do the opposite and win. That would take us to 18-1 and Superbowl Champs. If we want to make the paloffs; we need to win early as much as we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToaCommander Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Not sure if the playoff chant is sarcasm but if its not, guys need to stop guzzling the kool aid. Its those same people who will flood this message board with 'I'm done with this team...' threads should the team stumble in the coming weeks. If we lose, don't get too down and want to cut everyone and if we win like on Sunday, don't get too high and start booking our playoff spots. Seen it too often... Even during the 3rd and 4th quarter on Sunday, I was holding back my excitement on how well we were ballin' because in the past, all it takes is a mistake or series of mistakes for our fortunes to change and our excitement to disappointment. I know I sound like a negative ninny but I guess that comes with the experience we've had in the past +20 years. I'm excited about the defense, our young players we drafted and how they are starting to step up BUT the season is still young and we have a lot of good teams coming our way. As Zorn said, stay medium (in terms of expectations). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Slamming Butcher Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I was a doom and gloomer after week one as well. I would be thrilled beyond belief to eat crow at a Redskins paloff party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 It would be nice for once, to have a playoff birth wrapped up early. If this team can surprise and actually do that; that would be a welcome helping of crow I will eat. This team needs to win and win early often. If we do that, then we can say we have finally made some real progress. That means we need to finish with double digit wins. Going into the final stretch, say we are 9-3 or 10-2. Then you know, maybe we have something different this year. If my gloom and doom 5-11 prediction comes true; then we need to clean house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilco_holland Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 This is crazy talk. But I love that we play the Chiefs next week. It would be typical Redskins to play against a cupcake team like the Browns and just lose. Go in with to much convidence, look us beeing great. Chiefs are real threat. We need to play top notch to beat them. This is a game that shows if last week was a lucky shot or of we are really good. I do wonder if at the end of the season teams figure out how to handle our moving o-lineman. Now we suprices people but that wont last long in the NFL. The most analyzed sport in the world after baseball (I think). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) I really want to get on the media folks that "need to see more" prior to giving us any credit and the folks that are full of excuses about how we won on Sunday night. Unfortunately, I can't though. We've seen this show a hundred times before, where the team follows up a head scratching, dominating win with an all out dud. Those are the Redskins I know and they all know as well. I gotta admit that as much as I love Josh and DJ's passion, I get queezy anytime I hear Redskins players talking trash after a big win. Probably because of the above. What they will get is an opportunity Monday night to show the world that it isn't all talk. If they put the clamps down on the Chiefs and leave Arrowhead with a win, the bandwagon will be at full capacity and I'll be driving it.

zoony Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Nevermind media critics, I want to see more too. This team looked like fidos ass against philly, and middle of the road against the rams. Glad for the great win on Sunday and hope there are more, but playoff talk and acting like this team has done something at this point in the season is ridamdiculous. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hate after week one was way dam early, and the celebrations after week 3 are the same as well... Still think it's too early to bet on our team winning a 4th Lombardi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went from a certain 0-4 with people wanting jay g fired and the entire team replaced to winning The SB in 3 gms. I wonder how many will be making hotel reservations for the SB if we somehow manage to beat KC? I like this with manusky, swearinger, and the rest. Guys are making each other better. They played well enough to beat philly. Hopefully kirk and the off have found themselves. Will need to play an almost perfect game to compete with KC much less beat them.

Voices of Reaspn {aside from the member with that handle}?? HERE!?! This is where rational and logical thought comes to drop a little acid one last time, just like the old days. And I admit to being one of the worst offenders out there. I can haz mood swings and krazee ideas dat go all which ways? Why yes. Yes I can.

88Comrade2000 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 We are in 6th place again, pending the result of tonight's game. If we want Paloffs to be for real, we need to win. We may even move up from 6th place with a win. Lose and we are with a bunch of 3 win teams. http://www.espn.com/nfl/standings/_/view/playoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
