Week 7 Blessings

I have said it before, and I will say it again. It is agonizing being a Redskins fan. It is difficult to believe the special teams played that bad. If our punting was better, we win that game. Punting.

Check this series of plays. 4:36 to go in the 3rd quarter. The Skins are punting on their own 7. Our sub-human punter kicks it 26 yards to our own 33. Then our defense forces a 3 and out, and the Rams kick a 44 yard field goal on 4th down. Let me ax you this, let me ax you this, how in the motherfuck does a team go 3 and out and still score points? All other things being equal, if Durrant Brooks can just kick an average punt, we win that game. And lets not forget that he has had 2 punts run back for TDs this year too. Someone should cut that guys limbs off and leave him in a horrible existence as a living torso. Thank Jesus they acted and got a new punter this week.

The stupid turnovers have to end also. Shit is going to happen, but Pete Kendall should know better than to try to run after catching the ball like that. Fall down. I did not get to see the game because they obviously played the Bears game out here, but I heard that they dropped a couple of interceptions also. I have been saying this for a while, the Redskins need to work on ball handling. They need to accept the gifts they are given, and minimize the gifts they give away. I knew that the only way the Rams were going to win was if they won the turnover battle big, and they did 3 to 1.

I have heard a lot of talk this week about the Redskins did not come ready to play. I also saw the highlights where the Rams were going nuts after the game like they just won the Super Bowl or some shit. Calm the fuck down idiots, you had 8 first downs. We almost had triple that number. You didn't deserve to win that game. You got lucky. I could not agree with Mike more. The Skins dominated that game on offense and defense. Don't think so? Look at the fucking stat sheet bitch. It's all Skins. It just shows how important turnovers are. And also, special teams, even punting, matters. If they play the same way they did on Sunday, they win that game 9 out of 10 times. That was a fluke. I am not worried about this team or necessarily disappointed in their overall performance last week. I am just fucking angry as hell at certain parts of the team. I hope the team takes this loss as hard as the fans are and get angry themselves. They need to go out there on Sunday and give the Browns (still the fraud of the AFC) the motherfucking beatdown.

Here is some more solid gold for you turd burglars.

Chicago (-3) vs. Minnesota
Division game. The Bears coming off a heart breaking loss last week to the Falcons. And the Vikings put up 12 points against the worst defense in the league. Again, Gus Frerotte is not the answer. Put your rubber-banded roll on the Bears this week.

Dallas (-7) at St. Louis
After a bye and the Skins game, I can finally get back to picking automatic winners against the Rams.

New Orleans (+3) at Carolina
Game of the week in a big NFC South matchup. The Saints could get back in the hunt for the division with a win on the road, and the Panthers need to get a win after playing like shit and ass in Tampa. I give the edge to the Saints because they have the momentum going in, and the Panthers running game is stalling. That probably has something to do with the injury situation on their line. Only one starting O-lineman has played every game this year. I can see this one going down to the final possession, which also favors a Saints pick.

Houston (-9 1/2) vs. Detroit
The Lions have the worst D in the league, and the Texans actually have a respectable offense. What's more, the Lions just traded away their most talented receiver, although he was clamoring to get the fuck out of there forever. The Lions are so bad, I am willing to take a 1-4 team laying the wood against them.

Last week
3-1

For the year
18-5
