I don't care what our ranking is for the "full year". How this team is playing "now" is what counts!

ESPN has them at 12th, just below the Giants? Just goes to show how much ESPN hates the Redskins.

I love what ESPN did with the rankings. It's food for thought, to be ranked below the team you just laid waste to.
Should tick somebody off.

As usual, the only rankings I am really interested on are the current standings. Sorry.

You all know by now that the rankings and opinions are a pet peeve of mine because, as has been shown by many here, there is in my opinion, a big time bias against our team and anyone associated with it from the owner on down and including the coaching staff. ("Gibbs should never have returned to coaching"!!)

I know that the sports talk people, the media and the press, are encouraged by their bosses to be provocative and aggressively controversial but it tees me off when they have to be "creative" and biased. Most of these guys cannot report they distort!

It's that time of year when the players and the teams establish where they "stand" (rank?) and that is decided on the field.

We are so lucky to have made the progress we have the last 2 years and should be very grateful for being able to watch the last game of the season and have it mean so much. It does not matter where we are ranked by anyone else, we are an improved team and most of us are proud to be Redskins fans again. I am!

We are not a great team by any means, yet, but we are getting there. We are a lot better than most and almost as good as some. I have a feeling we will be a little better next year and at this time next year we might even be good enough to be ranked in the top 5! I don't care where any of these bozos ranks the Redskins - to me they are #1!

Hail to the Redskins and hail to Joe Gibbs.

While this ranking is probably the most accurate, I still don't put too much credence in them. Rankings cannot include passion, drive, and motivation to make the playoffs. These are the intangibles that are making this team incredible right now.

Can't butter both sides of the bread people, be careful.

These rankings have no relevence the rest of the year, let's remember that REGARDLESS of where they finally move our Skins to.

We could beat the Seahawks again and more decisively right now. Those guys haven't played anybody.

ummm. the colts, even though they pulled peyton in the 2 qtr., Tennesee 28-24 because titans had the best game of there year, Nov. 27, 24-21 vs. NYG. So i wouldn't say they had it easy! But I can see where you are coming from there division is THE WORST in the NFL. Seattle 13-2, St. Louis 5-10, Arizona 5-10, San Fran 3-12. Not a fierce company i shall say.

you and i feel the sameway towards this power ranking stuff.
i look at the racing side of it too and say who cares about power rankings as long as our team(s)or driver(s) are doing well at the right times of the season.

the way they are playin now is all that matters your right about that JH. :wink:

i dont care what are ranking is at all. I dont want people that have been hating us now loving us.... its about the fans and the team. We need a win in Philly, and thats all that counts. Weve all seen how rankings have not been true for many weeks now.
