im saying how we can get in. Sure, if we win 3 we get in, but we might not have to.
I am saying if you can’t beat the giants , 49ers or boys why bother ? It’s fools gold

We are a better team than the Giants. Hell, if we would have focused on containing Jones, we would have won easily. Unfortunately, we have a bad habit of making mediocre QBs look like the next coming of Otto Graham. Time and time again.

doesnt matter how you get in. As long as you get in
it isnt about how dean , its about whether you can do something while you are in and if you cant beat contenders then why lose draft position ?

you dont know what could happen in the playoffs. the whole point of the regular season is to get into the playoffs. If you are mathematically eliminated from playoff contention then draft position matters.

Good grief. Don't you have any desire whatsoever for the Skins to get better? I've ever seen another fan embrace mediocrity the way that you do.

If the Skins lose to all those teams dad mentioned they won't make the playoffs, but if they somehow did. You know what that would mean? It'll be the 2nd time in a row that they make the playoffs with a losing record and the 2nd time in a row they only beat 1 team in the reg season with a winning record. Each time the Skins have made the playoffs in the Snyder Era not only do they lose that first game. The next year they end with a worse record a worse finish in their division. That's 1 step forward, 2 steps back every damn time. You what that means. That every year the Skins have made the playoffs in the Snyder Era it was counterfeit.

A fan of a team should want better than that for ttheir favorite team. A whole lot better.

no fan routes against his team. no fan is going to turn down a ticket to the playoff dance.

I'm not saying to root against your team. I'm saying stop setting the bar so damn low. It's as if you have no expectation or even hope that the Skins get better. You're perfectly content with the Skins consistently losing to good teams. As long as they beat enough average and below average teams and make the playoffs. Even if its with a losing record. You say anything can happen once you get in the playoffs. So how many teams with a losing regular season record have won Super Bowls? None. Know why? Cuz that shit will never happen.

And if the Skins don't get any better, if they can't beat good teams on a consistent basis in the regular season. They damn sure aren't gonna do it in the playoffs. Sure, maybe they get lucky and catch a team on a given Sunday some day n win a wildcard game. That's as good as its gonna get. If they can't/don't get better and aren't able to play with and compete with good teams week in, week out. All the Skins really are right now if they make the playoffs is a steppingstone for the team they'll be facing. Just like the last 4 times they've made the playoffs.

Again, a fan should want more than that.

any fan would take making the playoffs every year. Sure, I want to get better. A losing record won't make it this year. The losing record made it in 2020 b/c the division was so bad. The point of the regular season is to make the playoffs. Then a new season starts. Just like the Bengals knocked off the Chiefs last year.

you have to beat teams like the bengals did (contenders ) to get that run dean

and part of making the playoffs is beating your competition expected to be in the playoffs

you can be the best of the JV teams but you still are a JV team

i want a real playoff team not a paper one

you can back in the playoffs during the regular season then beat a playoff team in the playoffs. It has happened but you have to make the playoffs first.

Not sure why y'all are so down on your team's chances in the playoffs.

They're 6-1-1 over the last 8 games, including a win in freaking Philadelphia, and the loss was a late field goal against Minnesota.

No one is down on them , what is being said is you have to beat the contenders to be legit .

You have to show you can beat the contenders . You sold this crap 2 yrs ago and we were sent packing , the other benefit you sold was some kind of boost . That didn’t happen either . We were worse the following year , attendance is still the worst in the NFL
