Okay, I get it, I get it. Sure those Lions weren’t the 0-16 Lions of last year.
Sure those Lions were only 0-2 this year.
Yes those Lions had 16 new starters, and a new head coach, but is that the best excuse we can come up with for why we lost?
“Well, they were a good team; better than people give them credit for.” That’s our response?
How are we ever supposed to beat “good teams” if we console ourselves after a loss…if we justify a loss by saying “oh, well, they were a good team.”

Congratulations go out to our back-to-back winner emoses14 with a hognostication of 12-4 for week 2. TincoSkin, VetSkinsFan, jeremyroyce and DesertSkin all came out with a respectable score of 11-5. Well done guys! This past week had many surprises and it just goes to show that on any given Sunday any team in the NFL could win.
I wish I could say I knew what Jim Zorn was doing. I wish I could tell you that I see some sort of wonderful master-plan being hatched in the background; but I can’t.
Jim has lost me entirely.
Now before you get to thinking that I think Zorn is a complete idiot; he is not. However there were some things that happened this weekend that have me really worried about his coaching and leadership ability.
The Bartender asks; “Why the long face?”
How many of you realize that the Redskins actually won the game yesterday? Show of hands?
No seriously, they did.
Yes…they did. I wouldn’t lie to you, they won.
Yes, I know they only scored nine points, but nine is greater than seven.
Oh sure, they naysayers are saying “same old Redskins; only scored nine points. That won’t be enough to beat our tougher opponents.”

HogWire’s Injury Report Week Two
The St. Louis Rams versus the Washington Redskins
Offensive Tackle Chris Samuels and Defensive Tackle Anthony Montgomery were both limited in practice this week and both were dealing with knee problems. The Washington Redskins have said they have to manage Samuels’s knee throughout the season, because Chris had knee surgery in the offseason and experienced some minor knee problems in the preseason. Coach Jim Zorn said Anthony Montgomery “has a little roughness on his knee”, and is limited in practice because of patellar tendinitis.
