Despite RGIII making the most of them, I'm still "anti" on prime time games. I guess I need more than one year of re-education to undo decades of misery training.

Let the intensive therapy towards full rehabilitation begin!

They don't scare me the way they used to. RGIII seems to thrive on the national stage. That last game, excepted.

My thoughts re the schedule? Bugger.

So many games kicking off after midnight UK time, I may need to take up some kind of drug habit to stay awake through the season.

This is no longer a team that we have to hope/wish/pray will win games. They're good enough to beat people, handily.


Though in general I agree, I still think this schedule looks a bit scary.

The best thing about it is we'll be "tried by fire" all year. Not that we aren't already a tough team, but we'll get a lot wiser a lot faster, etc.

I'm just hoping for 10-6 again this year. Seems quite reasonable, but deep down I'm thinking if we truly pull together like we did last year, we're facing a 12-4 season.

Gonna be a hard year, but the young team needs it for maximum development. Just hope we avoid injuries all around.

Part of me is a little disappointed we're not playing Dallas last again this year. However, having just come out of the cap situation, I think playing the Giants last this year has its own sentiments :)

Week 17 for us will be my Super Bowl this year, just as it was last year. No matter what happens this season, I want to see us completely devistate these guys. Just completely overtake them.

Good omen for the skins?


I'm assuming you mean their home opener. Bummer if that follows through though because it means that San Diego will win the Super Bowl this year.
