My redskins (little r this morning) really know how to build me up and send me crashing down… it appears that the close wins against the Saints and Lions, and that real stinker against the Rams are more what the 2008 Skins are about than the two close but stout road efforts earlier this year against the Cowboys and Eagles.
Last night the Cowboys practically gave the game away with two first half interceptions thrown by Romo after a dominant first drive by the Skin’s resulted in a touchdown… I was exultant after DeAngelo Hall (go hokies! – also lower case after last Thursday) picked off a horrible Romo pass to T.O. in his first game as a Skin but the offense never got going again and instead I sat there the rest of the game hoping they would pull it out despite the lack of offense.
Also it seems like someone had been starving Marion Barber all week and then dangled a snickers bar in front of him for the start of an impressive 6 min drive by the Cowboys to finish us off in the 4th quarter… which if you remember is exactly the way we closed out some of those impressive games earlier this season.
I’m not giving them up for dead, but my enthusiasm is officially tempered… go skins
