This is the funniest thing I've ever read. Nice, UK.

Thanks tc. I had the "pleasure" of a taking a train to London today. To be honest, if I saw a bearded man with an accent and a rucksack, kneeling on the floor of the carriage and facing Mecca, I'd just assume that he was hoping to get to London Bridge in time for a meeting.

I believe the key to us winning the division and being in contention for the wild card is to win our home games within the divison. We've already got the cowboys in their building, we have to beat the giants and the cowboys at home. Winning in Philly i think will be a gift last game of the year. We should clinch the playoff birth before that game.
We have a couple of trap games I think on the road in the next couple of weeks. We go to Arizona and we go to St. Louis. Rams will be a tough one to beat in there house but we can beat arizona.
We should take oakland at home but I'm saying we will lose to the Chargers. Winning home games in the divison against the giants and the cowboys and losing to the eagles at home this will have us finish at 10-6. Easily a wild card possibly winning the divison. I think in the NFC a 9-7 record should get you a wild card also.

Some interesting observations OSF.
I think the Rams and Chargers are capable of winning, but feel we still have an edge over both teams. After tomorrow's game, I will a better take on these 2 games.
I do not think, however, that 9-7 will get an NFC team in the playoffs this year. IMO you will have to have at least a 10-6 record.
All that said...keep the faith!

I just think the chargers are coming along. They fold in the close games though. If we can keep it close like we have been all year, (with the exception of the Giants), we can beat them.
Heres what I feel about the Rams. Martz is done for the year and they have a new coach. This coach is doing something that Martz was not doing. Running the football. They have a talented young back in Steven Jackson. Good WR. With a solid running game and that talent on the turf i think they will exploit us.
Our defense has been giving up big plays every week and i just have a bad feeling about that rams game. Probably going to be the hardest win the rest of the year. With the exception of maybe the Giants game or the Cowboys game but I think we got those games cause we are tough at home!
HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!
