Ive told u guys already, it's gonna be the Skins game...

[Jimz31]

No, we dont

OK...Dallas doesn't....but the Cowboys do.

Worst collapse in team history.

 

[kdog]

I've told you guys already, If we took care of our business we would not be worrying about other teams helping us to get in! BP and his coaches attitude throughout this seasons was play not to lose and it cost us.

Realistically we should have dominated this division. Our defense was excellent and we never put teams away, because of parcells stubborn ego and quite frankly poor playcalling at crucial times in those closes losses we suffered! PLease don't tell me that bp and his coaching staff is not to blame!

That being said, we are at the mercy of a iggles team in disarray. I want this team to make it to the playoffs but it does'nt look good right now!

 

[scottsp]

No, we dont

Me made our own bed. We can wish for help all day but at the end of the day, where we currently find ourselves is our own doing. This team has only itself to blame.

And we were talking about homefield before the denver game...

 

[Jimz31]

Are you really comparing the Skins and Colts?

yea... okay.

My point is Washington is playing better than they actually are right now, that's why they're due.
The Colts are playing as good as they are.

That's the difference.

No, I'm comparing a winning "streak". One NFL team to another. Forget about the names of the teams....it's irrelevant.

This whole thing about "due to lose" is whack. One of the most over-rated sayings as far as any truth being in it.

 

[jimmy40]

interesting you say that right after Carolina scores.

A lot of I told you so threads today.

"Eagles coach Andy Reid apparently doesn't see his team standing in the Commanders' way, saying, 'You guys are going to be in the playoffs, fired up and ready to go. You won't have to worry about me.'"

 

[scottsp]

And always after the fact.

 

[Jimz31]

And we were talking about homefield before the denver game...

Yeah...that was the Thanksgiving game....the game that BP said before the season he would be able to "know" what kind of team we were. I still don't think he has figured it out.

Sorry, I thought you were saying we deserve to have a team help us into the playoffs

Some teams have longer win streaks than others.
Because some teams are better than others.
Therefor, the team in question is very relevant.

 

[DoomsDayD]

Sorry but there is no way in the world the skins lose to the eagles today. I live right near the stadium and to actually no have my street filled with cars looking for parking spots and fans shouting that FREAKING E-A-G-L-E-S song is just a tell tale sign that the fans and team have packed it in. We blew it..lets face facts. Tonights game will be meaningless..i dont even know if it has draft order implications.

since we are doing homework:

yeah Atlanta will play strong, but I don't think their D is going to be able to stop a Panther's offense who will be knowing the playoffs are on the line. Plus the Panthers are almost designed specifically to stop Michael Vick. So there's going to be a lot of if's for them to win that game.

My money is actually on the Philadelphia Eagles... the Eagles played the Giants very strongly with pretty much the same circumstances.. The HFA will be strong, we've seen a very good Washington team, but you have to keep this in mind:

They played STL and Arizona as part of their "4 game win streak" and got two home games to really play for the crowd and their own emotion.. going on the road is going to atleast make them have to work for it.. the Philly crowd ain't exactly Arizona lol..

I posted that before Christmas, I had a feeling that the Panthers Defense would neutralize Mike Vick. That whole friggen team is designed to stop the Falcons, which is why they are having so much success against them and not so dominant against say the Cowboys.

I still think we have a much better shot vs. Philly, although part of me hoped the athleticism of Vick/Dunn/Crumpler could do it, we got to pray that the Commanders are overlooking the Eagles.. that's our only hope. If the Eagles stop Cooley and Moss I'll be happy with Portis running because that means the score is not getting out of hand like 35 point defecits...

the only thing I couldn't predict was the fickle Eagle fans, not having a packed stadium booing is going to hurt... but maybe the Eagles will play better with less harshness from the crowd? lol

 

[Vman]

Personally, I believe the Commanders have been playing with wreckless abandon the last 4 weeks.

And why not? They had to run the table over the last five games.

But this week is different, in my opinion. Their season rides on this game.

They won't be going for close 4th downs and will probably be over-joyed to settle for FGs.

I believe that will be to their undoing this afternoon. All of the pressure is on them.

I say they choke.

Philly 17 Washington 6

Best "scoop" Ive heard in a while.


But all would take is a little "knee effusion" to sideline Santana Moss and the whole table could turn quickly.

 

[Gaede]

Eagles can't win. Only chance they have is a quick turnover/TD and getting some momentum

Not gonna happen, I think.

 

[Qwickdraw]

interesting you say that right after Carolina scores.

interesting how I said it a week ago on numerous occasions.

interesting how you never responded until you saw the opportunity to be a smart***.

 

[Sweep]

I am surprised that Atlanta is not giving the Panthers much of a game. I am a little worried about my Skins at the Linc today. I think they will win, but I have a feeling it will be closer than most think.

 

[Jimz31]

I think we are all hoping that the Commanders lose, but most of us are realists.

 

[The30YardSlant]

I'm afraid to root for Pgilly, because if they win we'll have listen to the nonsensical ramblings of Qwickdraw for months, telling us how he "told us so".
