Winner.... Roger Godell and the NFL.

i dont think its a conspiracy but dallas sure can make us look bad

How did that abortion of a football game win for Goodell and the NFL. That was a terrible game and to think, one of the teams was leading a division in the Nat'l Football League.

 

[Sharkinva]

NOt saying the game was fixed, but this is exactly what the league wants. Take from that what you will. The best way to maintain a fan base is to have a Cinderella story. And right now this sets up for at least one of the NFE East week 17 games to be for all the marbles.

I think some folks have been sniffing the perfume bottle. dad told you over and over. This team was 5-6 and you are referring to them like they were 8-3. The team has 15 guys they picked up in the 7-11 parking lot. I know, all of us wanted to win but you have to consider we were light on talent to start the season and that has been depleted twice.

Breed... its a win for Godell because as it stands right now, you wont have Dallas, Philly, NY or Washington home games half empty because a team is "out of the picture". Week 17 right now will be for all the marbles in either the WASH/Dal game, or the Philly/NY game. As long as fans have hope, the stands stay filled. So for the league, this is exactly what they want.

Side note, Jackson should never return another punt, and next week becomes a win or go home game for every team in the NFC East.

You called it Shark, put my fingers in my ears and went La, la, la, la, la, la, la, cause I didn't want to hear what I too believed to be the case.

This. We were (are?) a division leader in name only. We may get to 7 or 8 wins on a weak schedule, but like dad has been saying all year - we really are about a 6 win team.

Easy there...expecting a win over a crap Dallas team with Matt Cassel at the helm @ home is not predicting some crazy event. Granted the Skins invent new ways to suck us in and blow it all the time so I guess we should have known better

Please don't take my mentioning of the Skins being division leaders as an endorsement that I think they were any good. I wasn't trying to imply the Skins were a good team. I was saying that the NFC East was a very shitty division. Quite frankly, after watching that train-wreck. I don't want the Skins to go to the playoffs. I wouldn't of wanted them to go with anything less than a 9=7 record and that's still a garbage record.

The only real reason I'm hoping the Skins don't lose the rest of their games. Is because it would anally r*pe the "Who's gonna be the Skins QB for next year and maybe beyond?" situation into a fill blown clusterfuck. Make no mistake, while I've teetered back n forth on Cuz pretty much from week to week. This game tonight, Cuz's performance, and what I perceive as Gruden trying to protect him possibly even at the expense of winning the game. I'm pretty much back to square one that Cousins really ain't shit. Even with playing at home, where he was 5-1 winning the last 5 in a row. Had some gaudy ass numbers his last 3 games, a golden opportunity to put a considerable dent in his "Crumbles in nat'l televised game" situations . And playing to solidify first place status the NFC East. He came out and with all that incentive he laid 2 eggs, a piano and a rotten grapefruit.

And while he didn't get much help from the OL, or the RBs. He had more than ample help from the defense. Who gave him the ball back three times in great position. What did he do with it though? Led the skins to 9 funky ass points. being unable or totally incapable of leading a TD scoring drive till the last funky ass minute of the game. I don't think he audible out of a single play even the called play that was going straight in the Cowboys blitzes. Today was a test, a big test, that imo Cousins clearly and most certainly failed.

No I think most if not everyone on here realizes we're still a ways away from being a true division champ.

My money is on this division being decided in Philly in week 16. The Cowboys season ends next week in Green Bay and the Giants still have the Panthers, Eagles, Vikings and a tough game with Miami Monday.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

shark is right i would go father and say the nfl is fixed. how come cam newton celebrite like that in the endzone i bet skins can not do what cam does

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

That would require actually getting in the end zone.

You know what man, going into this game I don't think that we could literally find one person that didn't believe that this was a big time opportunity for Kirk to step up his game. Maybe you're right when you say that Gruden may be keeping tight reins on him. At some point the young man is going to have to be let loose. How long can it be reasonable to keep using, "well he still has ( insert number here) games to prove himself? There are now only 4 of those left and if Gruden is indeed not allowing him to ball out he's at the point where one of two things are apparent.
1. He's doing an incredible disservice to the young man
.......................OR.................

2. There's nothing more to him than what's been shown.

Kind of hard for Cousins to do much when he has 2-3 defenders in his face on practically every play! This one was not about Cousins. This was about getting dominated by the Cowboys D line and LBs for most of the night. Part of that falls on the Redskins O line and part on the Dallas defense. Oh well - just means that the Redskins still need to rebuild some more on offense. BTW - it would help if a Skins RB would actually block every now and then.

Skins are an awful team, not that my Giants are any better

Last night was a Christmas gift to all NFL Fans, no one should have to see that team in the playoffs

All of the teams in the NFC-E have strengths and weaknesses and honestly don't belong in the playoffs but somebody has to go.

 

[SoCalWizFan]

BTW buddy - give it a year or two. The Redskins will surpass the Giants while we continue to witness an aging Manning put up more picks. The Skins are built for the future - not now.
