I think I disagree. Remember to put those two catches in the context of the Redskins-Cowboys rivalry...and how the Cowboys have been handing it to the Redskins for years and years and years.

Those two catches, in one night, brought back that rivalry.

Significant? I certainly think so. I think any NFL fan worth his salt would also think so.

You would think, but all my friends said it was a stupid lucky game that the Skins won because Roy Williams is a moron.

I mean, everytime I bring it up, they just blame the game on Roy Williams stupidity, which I can't really argue.

I don't know that he's a moron. I think it's just too much time in the Dallas sun without a hat.

If they're going to just blame the first game on Roy Williams, ask 'em how they explain that 12/18 beatdown!

Good point air_hog! I love it when the puke fans find a "reason" for a loss!! Hey puke fans - you scored 13 points in the game and we scored 14! Your pathetic team lost because they did not score enough points to win, not because Williams is a moron (which he is).

A team loses and a team wins - not any one play or any one player (or coach). Sure they outplayed us for almost the entire game but that means nothing. Last year in the first game against the Giants everyone is saying it was because of some ghost! Give me a break - we lost because we did not score enough points - we outplayed them but we lost.

Funny how many times the team that played better loses because of one play or a player. Gibbs will ensure that we have the best chance to win because he wants players who play better as a team not just players who play better.

I think you are the only person on the planet that thinks we outplayed the G-strings that day. It's not like we lost 35-34.
