I won't complain about that win.

Did the Rams give that away? Yes, just like we've given away double digit leads for inexplicable losses far too often too.

So I'll just be happy we were the team on the other end of a debacle for once.

So while the Rams gave us a hand, we still had to score on the other end to capitalize, and we did just that.

Not about the game that just ended, just observing that we'll have to do better to beat teams that aren't so bad.
Well yeah. You can't keep having a first quarter fumble from Murray costing us points and a pick 6 by Romo. Those are things that cost you games against top shelf team. Hell any time you go down by 21 the game is basically over against a top shelf team.

The Rams didn't give it away any more then the Cowboys attempted to give it away to the Rams. I think we were clearly the better team but we made some boneheaded mistakes early that made it look like more of a challenge then it should have.

The Rams stink but they had a big lead and all the momentum in the world in the first half so it was a good comeback, even against a bad team. Shoot, it's a win and I'll take it considering we're 25% of the way to my best case scenario for wins this season. Who knows, we may even improve. Not that I'll hold my breath waiting for it to happen.

You play them one at a time. If you win that's great. If you win and still aren't satisfied, then nothing will ever be good enough. Enjoy the victory.

We did not make them pay in a loss. Meanwhile, we had an alltimer of a comeback, we still emphasized the run...which has been a criticism.
Seeing them stick with the run wad a huge surprise. Even though we weren't gashing them we kept them honest.

Maybe they really have turned the corner and are truly committed to running the ball.

After all the slobbering over Seattle in week 1, a 1-2 start with an end to their home winning streak would be sweet.

Feel like there were more opportunities to burn them through the air because they basically had 8 in the box all day.

ESPN - Redskins CB DeAngelo Hall told reporters that he tore his Achilles, will undergo MRI on Monday

Couldn't happen to a better fuckstick.

I would agree but I'd rather Seattle outpace the 49ers in the NFC West.

Maybe, but that's the kind of team we have.

This team isn't good so I don't expect them to impress much this season.
