GO SKINS!!!</div>How many of those Dome Games were before Gibbs retired? Keeping in mind as he has changed his style of play over the years, I wouldnt read much into that. Plus, I could say the same thing with the Colts about Washington's Defense having Injuries. If you don't think Peyton to Harrison will burn Mike Rumph or whoever you throw out there, you got another thing coming. :whistling: It will probably be a good shootout with the Colts winning IMO.
Yay Redskin fans! Lets blame more on the refs. Can't you just be men and handle the fact that you have a bunch of overpaid players on your team?
Other then the low-hit Penalty on Washington and the Touchdown call that was reversed, I've actually thought the Refs have done a pretty damn good job.
Brooksie, you have no idea what you just said...On defense, we need to clone Washington and Taylor.On offense, duh...Plus, having Portis, Moss, Patten, Fauria, Rogers, Springs, Vincent, Jimoh, Marshall, Salave'a, Daniels, Griffin injured doesn't help.
Actually I know what I said.But anyways, that injury thing was dumb. I'm not sure on this but i'm pretty sure all of them (at least most) played still. So pretty much what you're saying is every player on every other team in the league is 100% and the Redskins are the only team with players playing hurt.
Injuries do have somewhat to do with where the Redskins are. BUT(!), that is why you don't spend all of your money on the likes of Randle El, Carter, Lloyd, Archuleta, etc, etc, etc...You spend your money wisely for players can be productive (more than what they have now) and most importantly, use your money on depth. So there would be no excuse when you have players that are injured. But when you put all of your eggs in one basket this is what you get. There is no depth on the Redskins and it's hurrying them.Like Parcells said numerous times with the Cowboys, you are what you are.. And at this point and time the Redskins are a 2-5 team.
Brooksie, CB Carlos Rogers, DL Cornelius Griffin, WR David Patten, QB Jason Campbell, LB Lemar Marshall, DL Ryan Boschetti, were inactive and then CB Ade Jimoh got hurt and left, CB Shawn Springs was playing "80%", RB Clinton Portis was playing hurt, DL Joe Salave'a was playing hurt, QB Mark Brunell was playing hurt.CipherCowboy are you kidding me? Randle El had his best game of the year this Sunday, same with Lloyd. Archuleta is leading safeties in tackling and Carter is a major upgrade over Wynn.We are not a 2-5 team... Brunell is. We are not.
I can't edit for some reason.......Brooksie, CB Carlos Rogers, DB Pierson Prioleau, DL Cornelius Griffin, WR David Patten, QB Jason Campbell, LB Lemar Marshall, DL Ryan Boschetti, were inactive and then CB Ade Jimoh got hurt and left, CB Shawn Springs was playing "80%", RB Clinton Portis was playing hurt, DL Joe Salave'a was playing hurt, DB Troy Vincent was hurt of course, QB Mark Brunell was playing hurt.I highlighted the defensive players (notice the coverage guys)... 6 of them start
Can you seriously blame no one but your team on your loss? It was the refs fault.. we're too injured..Lots of teams in the NFL have injuries right now. The vikings are missing their starting defensive end, starting linebacker, and starting safety right now to season ending injuries, lost our nickelback to a season ending injury, and lost our #1 wide receiver because he was drunk driving and needed to be cut, yet we payed for depth. So, in place of Erasmus james come Darrion Scott and Ray Edwards. In place of Chad Greenway comes Ben Leber. In place of Tank Williams comes dwight Smith and so on. You need depth to compete in the NFL. Maybe not so much at the impact positions but when you have multiple players that can start you are going to be much better off in the longrun. Clearly the skins haven't learned that..And the ref thing? Please.. You guys are worse than seahawks fans.

You already have Cartwright who's doing a pretty good job in the special teams. And don't ever mention Lloyd again because you wasted a lot of money on someone who WILL NOT contribute to that team. As for Archuleta, so what if he has a lot of tackle. That doen't defind if a player is any good or not. If anything he's probably tackling running backs who has broken through your DL, which bring up Carter, and there's nothing really to say about him. All those big names sound good on paper but they fact is that your defense is ranked 22nd. There's really no excuse. The Redskins are a 2 -5 team. You are what your record say you are. And if I'm not mistaken, Mark Brunell is the quarterback for the Redskins, so therefore he's a Redskin...I'm I right?

I'm pretty much leagally retarded. :drool:
Cipher, as long as we are well under the cap, we don't overpay. Don't ever bring that up. I'm not syaing we lost because of the injuries, but it sure affected our DBs (who are all injured...) We suck because of Gibbs/Brunell.
No point to honestly panic when you lost against the Colts. Sure, you're 2-5 but you played some good teams and lost a few gimme games.
