They get Portis back and not coincidentally blow out a much-ballyhooed JAX D that held us to 17 points, 14 1st downs, and 88 rushing yards. WAS beat the Jags which we couldn't do when they had Marcus Stroud limping around.
Funny how people were saying it was understandable that we lost to JAX as they were one of the better teams in the league, then when WAS beats them, JAX is described as actually overrated. WAS gets no credit at all. Such homerism and blatant hypocrisy is pathetic. I'll believe we're that much better than the Skins are if while healthy we play better than they do when they're healthy and especially if/when we empty the Skins of their souls on Nov. 5.
you're talking to the wrong guy, I'm not minimizing the Skins victory today, just saying I'm glad we beat them already so we don't have to hear the common opponent factor, the rest of the season will take care of itself, but right now, we own the Skins, and our loss against a team they beat means squat right now
