The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

We all know the Redskins have had a brutally difficult schedule. I was just playing around looking at the numbers hoping to find an optimistic way of looking at things. If you discount, throw away, the 49'ers victory (because this team is just horrible) then the Redskins have a record of 4-6...winning just 44% of their games. If you take the combined record of the rest of the Redskin opponents, excluding their games versus the Redskins, you'll find they have a cumulative record of 56-33. Ouch! That is, these teams have won 59% of their (other) games. So, the Redskin's losing percentage of 56% is actually 3% less than that of every other team their opponents have played. This demonstrates (to me at least) that the Redskins are somewhere around a slightly above average team in the NFL. These numbers also demonstrate that the Redskins have only lost to ONE team that has an otherwise losing record - The Oakland Raiders, who have won 42% of their other games.

Note - These numbers use the NFL's "official" standings which have the Redskins losing in week 10.

yackity smackity. The skins talent is there. We have a solid defense a good running game. That is the formula of success in the nfl. Only thing that held us back this year was turnovers at inopertune times. We are a good solid team once the discipline doubles with our players. This is a powerhouse team ready to happen. A duckling ready to bloom into a dove {a lack of a better analogy} but hey you get the picture. If u are another undercover cowboy fan trying to bring down the house sorry its never ever ever......... gonna happen so shoo fly dont bother me.........

Yes, but lest you forget the apex of the lunar excursion module that would have been in posistion to render the 4995 distributer chassy valve useless, would have embedded our optics and marginalized our profits. mmm kay'

^ ^ ^

what he said....

ok....i think i got it

Somebody run this one by me again, but this time do it in English?

OK, I do understand this, because I'm amazingly clever. I'm also a complete tosspot, so I'm not going to explain it to any of you.

Now, that just ain't right, UK. And you being a tosspot, well, uh, you know, that is to say, uh... well, the "don't ask, don't tell" thing seems to have worked for the military, so I guess it'd be okay for this board, too.

This is really confusing.... once you bring the lunar excursion module into operation the profits should shoot to the Moon

Wait ... did you guys remember to carry the "1" ??

Also is this standard or metric measurements we're talking about here? Remember what happened with the Mars lander when they weren't converted? I'd hate for that to happen to our beloved Redskins.

Whoa! those were some big words. Anyone got a thesaurus? but yeah I think Im gonna need a bigger pot of coffee before I even begin to think about what that means!!
