Just seen one headline 'Case Keenum, yes, Case Keenum, dominates the Redskins defence.'

Says it all really. Isn't he their third choice QB?

Not one single sack tonight and Keenum prior to this had had just 7 touchdowns in 6 starts. Tonight he had 4 and he's with his 4th club in 4 years. Tonight we made him look like a star QB.

Hate these nightmare weekends where both the City and Skins lose. :(

I think Keenum is having a good year though, our defence did make him look better but they had a massive off day. I don't think we'll beat NO but I thought the Seahawks would annihilate us. I feel better about losses like this than ones like the Cowboys where we looked completely inept. Take out a crazy last 2 mins of the first half and and easy TD and the start of the 3rd and it's a W. I doubt our defence will be as bad next week.

Dallas losing helps us immensely. Had they have won that would have really left us chasing their tails.

I just noticed that Dallas are up against the Eagles next. If the Redskins could somehow overhaul the Saints and the Eagles game goes to form, we would be right there breathing down their necks.

Season's stats don't look good for the Skins either. Prediction now is that no receiver is likely to get past 700 yards this season. Last season we had two players go past 1,000.

Rushing stats are really poor too. The Redskins regularly used to have running backs notch up 1,000 a season. Top rusher this year is Chris Thompson on 277.

On the other side of the ball though apart from a few blown coverages and coming up against some hefty offences our defence has generally stood up well and is a definite improvement on last season. With Norman and Swearinger both on long term deals this is a real nice starting point to build around for the next couple of years.

To date we've played teams with a combined 52-30, the remaining 7 are 24-39 and after this weekend the remaining 6 are 17-37. Coming out of the game against the Saints healthy and with dignity in tact would be a result to have a real go at one of the easiest remaining schedules in football.

Cant see us catching the Eagles, they have a nailed on home game against the Bears and @ Giants which should see them to 10 wins meaning we would need 11, 10-6 should get you a playoff place, and you could squeeze through on 9-7

Would be very happy with 9-7. We do need to beat Dallas though.

Okay, predictions for your clubs and also any others you wish to predict, suprise or nailed on.

Washington at New Orleans. Cannot see anything past a Saints win on this one and that's my nailed on prediction too.

Surprise could be Baltimore at Green Bay.

So, Skins to lose.

Nailed on - The Saints in that same match up

Surprise - Baltimore at the Packers.

Toughest to call - Falcons at Seattle and Rams at the Vikings.
