Designated "Season's Over!" Thread (MERGED x10)

[TheLongshot]

If I remember correctly, we do have six games to play.

Yes, we probably aren't going to the playoffs. That being said, we are not eliminated from the playoffs, and we still have stuff to play for. While this is disappointing, I have accepted weeks ago that this isn't a playoff team, and that we'd be fortunate to be in the playoffs.

So, let's be thankful that we are 5-5 at this point, and that we only need a couple of victories to improve from last year.

I wouldn't be shocked if the Skins run the table, but it would be hard for us to get into the playoffs the way Dallas and NY are playing. Not giving up on them just yet but being realistic.

Big difference between us an Dallas/NY is that they step up when they need a win...we don't.

[PA Skin Fan]

This team is mired in mediocrity. The best we can hope for at this point is a few more wins - like you said probably 8-8 at best.

The big problems? Too many turnovers (every game they abound), the pass rush is among the worst I've seen as a Skin fan - it's amazing the defense is as good as it is when the rush is SOOOOO bad, and the playing not to lose mentality - the scared mentality that seems to come from the top down unfortunately.

the way I see it is that we need to win 5 or 6 of our last 6 games to have any chance to get in to the playoffs. I will hope for the best but the losses this week and last really hurt our chances of getting in.

See ya. Don't let the door hit your a** on the way out. And you better not be back if the Skins turn it around, otherwise you're going to get called out big time.

I don't understand the point of your post. Are you standing up and proclaiming yourself a fair-weather fan? Generally that's seen as a bad thing...

[Califan007]

Want some more sobering stats??...Over the last four games:

Brunell:
69/124
56% completion rate
670 yds
167.5 ypg
2 TDs
3 INTs
4 Fumbles

Moss:
19 receptions
245 yds
61 ypg
12.89 ypc
0 TDs

Offense:
263 ypg

Defense:
350 ypg

The defense is giving up close to 100 yards per game more than the offense...

[IONTOP]

Until next year guys

I wouldn't mind if you didn't come back, I mean if you are just going to give up on "Your team" give me a break...

[Sarge]

Please don't come back

This is so sickening to watch. The Raiders have a horrible defense and all we can do is muster up 13 points!! I agree. The way the Cowboys and Giants are playing we're finished. I don't see us running the table. I think we'll finish 9-7 but that won't get us in. We had to beat the Raiders, there's no excuse.

[bbuzz1962]

This was a joke. I cannot believe this is the same team we have watched all year. Oh yeah, the Giants. Well, we blew it. The Giants and Cowboys have won today which have basically shut us out of the playoffs. Clinton Portis had the nerve to chastise the turnovers last week, and was the biggest problem today.

No offensive touchdown. How in the hell do you not score a touchdown against the f'n Raiders?? We have seen the real Redskins, I do not believe that Brunell is going to make it from hear on out. Trust me. He looked horrible, the defensive line was embarrased and the secondary was scorched again. Do we even have a defensive line? They are pittifull as well. Don't tell me the Raiders were a good football team Joe, they aren't. Your team sucks, they didn't show up, this was the biggest game of the season due to your other losses that shouldn't have happened.

I think the worst thing is, we have enlightend all the neysayers that didn't believe we were for real and we would falter. We are faltered, and bad. When a 3-6 football team can figure out how to beat you and do, well the season is over.

I look forward to everyone of you scorching me for this post, saying I am not a real fan, boo hoo boo hoo. I call it like I see it, and we were beat by a losing team who has no respect in the NFL. So you can kiss my rear end, this team now sucks, and there will be no team respecting the Redskins from this day on. The Chargers will kick this teams ass, and if anyone wants to wager this, email me.

We're two games out of the wildcard spot with 6 games left. That's a HUGE load to overcome. We'll need to win five of the last six and tell me which five we win? Especially the way we played today. I've lived and died with this team for 27 seasons and have never lost the hunger to see them play each Sunday no matter how bad they were. I'm afraid I've finnaly maxed out my nine lives. I can't bear to watch this ship sink any longer. I avoided sports channels on the radio and TV all week over being SO bitter from last week. I wanted to watch today thinking we could redeem ourselves. We lost to a bad team today and it seems like every team we play now has to have a sidebar storyline "Giants win for Mara", "Chris Simms breaks out", "Norv beats his old team", blah, blah, blah. Now next week we have to deal with the Marty love fest from the annuncers. I hate what this team makes me feel like. I almost enjoy the offseason and the anticipation even more than the regular season.

I feel exactly the same way.

[NAILBOMB9]

You gotta believe though...haha...the only thing you can believe is that the Skins are WAY overrated and have no idea how to execute on either side of the ball. Funny how everyone was on the Brunell bandwagon when most new he wasn't going to keep it up, and how everyone was saying that LaVar was a selfish player. Well, I think now we can agree that LaVar is definately LaVar and Brunell is done and so is LaVar's stay in Washington due to paying "BOO" nell that stupid ***** contract. Oh, you can thank Brunell for Smoot being in Minny and Pierce being in NY too. Can't sign your "core" Skins when you're overpaying a has-been QB

[redskins0213@comcast.net]

Lets just hope that Walt Harris DIES and the Offensive and Defensive lines get in a car accident! They are all terrible! Maybe next year (but hey i live near Philly)

[KillaCam21]

I say we just dedicate our season to injuring as many NFC Easy opponents as possible. Because we wont be in the playoffs, we might as well not let them do anything when they get in the playoffs. Sean Taylor needs to start going for the kill shot on every tackle.
