I think the only part about the monday night pregame show I like from BSPN is the "C'mon Man!" segment.

How PC of you, Dave...
go team from the nation’s capital that wears burgundy and gold.
So OFFENSIVE!
Looks like the Skins are putting up a fight so far
a fight to stay in the basement
Give Eli some time
he’s going to help them win…
i saw one blatant hold that deon anderson had in the saints game
but that was the only one I saw by the boys in that whole game that wasnt called.
I saw no less than 3 blatant holds on that one giants drive alone, none of which were called… reminiscent of the last time we played them
I almost want the Giants to win
I know, we need to make sure they are out of the running. But I would much rather face a completely deflated Redskins team next week than a team with confidence playing with heart.
Troy,
I don’;t think it matters much who wins tonight. For Dallas to reach their goal, which is ultimately the Super Bowl, I think that they need to head into the playoffs with a head of steam. I want Dallas to win out .. and not rely on other teams to get in. They’ve played 14 games to get into the position of controling their own destiny.
Just win baby!! Just win!!

primary objective
…for Dallas is to get finally play off win…
Its like learning to ride a bike ..
once you start … you don’t ever want to stop

True
definitely true. I think winning out will be made easier if we face a deflated Deadskins team.

I am genuinely torn, I want to see the gints lose, but I hate the skins just as much.
I would rather both of these teams play sloppy dumb football and the less inept team wins. I would love to see the giants go up only to give up the game on a JC comeback; that should be pretty deflating.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
I want to see Eli
throw a couple of interceptions, get sacked three times, and start pouting on the sidelines…
i want to see the eart suddenly open up and swallow both teams...
but i’ll take a rough, hard-played loss by the giants even though they physically beat the snot out of the redskins
It's not that I'm saying we're due a playoff win, but I didn't have my license to drive when we won our last one...
I am praying for a focused meteor to take out fans and both teams. C'mon METEOR!!!!!
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
Man, the darn skins are going to quit by halftime if this keeps up.

hey guys
i think we will beat the eales next week

Good J-man I hope you give them the same treatment you gave to the giants. Just do not cough up the ball
their offense is depended on multiple possesions and short fields.

This is even more one-sided than the PHI @ WAS Monday night game in October...
who’s bright idea was it to put the crappy ass Redskins on Monday night twice? Epic fail.

In the 2nd half, you could have had yackity sacks playing in the background and it would have been fitting for the way the
skins played in that game.

Man I just got back from the hogs haven open game thread, they have already reserved themselves to their fate.
The giants have landed a head shot to the zombie skins that have been shambling around this season since around week 3. Only able to occasionally chase down the feeble team that could not crawl away fast enough.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
On a side note, man Folk getting cut just after he went with the team to a hospital for some charity function.
I guess he never left the hospital, he had a terminal case of the yips, I think he contracted it from Roy “clutchless-big talk, all hat no cattle” Williams.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
Manningham has skinny legs...
If you are going to be that lean for a wide receiver, you got to have Moss or Jackson-type speed.
They are numb to the losses, they are just happy to have cerrato fired and the prospect to have a real HC with maybe
danny boy backing down.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
Tis the season of giving, the skins should be called sugar, because they give it up sweet.

THANK YOU CAROLINA!!
By beating the Vikings, you may have helped the Cowboys immensely!
If the Boys & Eagles win next week, the Eagles would stay within a game of the Vikings. If the Eagles & Vikings are tied at the end of the season the Eagles win the tiebreaker, thus giving the Eagles the #2 seed & the Vikings would have to play the wild card game.
Perfect scenario is Cowboys-Eagles game in week 17 gets moved to Sunday night, meaning the Vikings will need to play the starters that Sunday afternoon at home against the Giants.
I don’t see the Giants losing tonight or next week at home. In the scenario above the Vikings could clinch a playoff berth for the Boys before we have to take the field against the Eagles.
Highly doubtful, but....
If we win out & the Vikings lose out, I believe we could sneak into the #2 seed ourselves.
Carolina will do us one more favor...
next week versus the Giants…
yep
So I had to establish the rules and regulations of the game...85!

Doggone it
I thought the Redskins were actually playing respectable football this year and were gonna beat the Gnats.
>: [
2009 Dallas Cowboys: 10-6
2009 New York Jets: not 11-5 :(
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25
Is that why they decided to sacrifice their starting QB.

Skins are laying down like the dogs they are
hopefully they continue to do so next week.
In Romo we Trust
They played well versus NO...
that loss must have taken all the “heart” they had…
The skins better becareful about laying down like that, Osi likes him a cleveland steamer.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
So, I'm thinking...
winning like this might lead to a let down versus Carolina next week. If Carolina plays like they did against Minnesota, Giants could be in for some trouble…
Giatns are ont winning out
Besides it doesn’t matter because we will.

So, who has turned out to be the better quarterback...
E. Manning or P. Rivers?
i guess i'd have to say rivers at this point
but if he didn’t have all those tall recievers i’m not sure how effective he’d be, i’ve never seen a QB consistently float a ball that much with so much success
by robolundgren on Dec 21, 2009 8:54 PM CST up reply actions
Campbell's hurt
like Dangerfield at the end of Caddyshack
hate to see a guy get hurt, dont have anything against campbell besides being a redskin
but if he’s gonna be hurt let’s hope he’s out next week, unless i’m mistaken he’s typically done pretty well against us
by robolundgren on Dec 21, 2009 8:57 PM CST up reply actions
At this rate, Randel-El will be the QB next week against us.
I saw a dog today. Have you seen a dog? You probably have. How was school? Was it fun? Did you get a lot of homework? Huh? Do you have any friends? Do you have a best friend? Does he have a big coat, too?
I can guarantee you this is not the wash team that will show up next week.
These guys gave the game away to the giants….they wont be that kind to us.
Agree
but it wont matter.

while he certainly hasnt done a good job this year (thats being nice), he has been disrespected by the upper management all year long. must be his way of giving them the finger

Great for JJ Coaches evaluation next week
With the way the Giants are dismantling the Skins, a lot more will be expected of Wade and the coaching staff next week, than a close game like 7-6. A loss will probably be unacceptable by JJ.
I think it's obvious the team is in total meltdown
Cowboys should go up and smash them next week. They’re done. The only guy that looks like he’s still trying is Fletcher.
Drago says, "We must break you!"
So...it seems we were fortunate in beating the Raiders.
They seem to beat good teams no matter who is at QB.

And, there's one more half
of this to come…
I wouldn't laugh.....
that’s the guy they hired to replace Suisham who happens to be our current kicker.
suisham is an 85% kicker
folk was around 65% i believe. i’m ok with the move

The skins will be up for next week.
it will be their super bowl.
in fact, it wouldnt shock me if they blew off preparing for this game to prepare for dallas a week early.
they’re obsesses with beating the cowboys. all they’ll talk about this week is dallas, they’ll mention this game maybe for an hour or two tomorrow.
they’re already talking about “dallas week.”
Perhaps, but bad teams don't play this badly one week
and light out the next… I think they are really winding down after a bad season…

It has to start with the game planning...
I really liked what JG did on the first series of the NO game… he called that deep ball on a double move. If they attack the Skins from the first play they will be good… They just can’t let the game happen to them…

Maybe a problem studying this game in prep for next week
This is like 60 minutes of all bad plays

the first game versus the Redskins. At least, that is what I would do.

I don't think they can get up after this game
Few teams can bounce back after a game like this. Even fewer when you know you aren’t in the playoffs anyway. Fewer still when you know your coach is likely gone next season. And still fewer if you don’t even know if you will be on the roster.
Granted, it is Dallas Week in DC, so everything I just said might be a load of bull.
by TroyHambrick on Dec 21, 2009 10:42 PM CST up reply actions
well that was an embarrassment... LOL foreskins...
i sure hope we can do the same thing to them next week… these division games always defy expectations, but we just beat an undefeated powerhouse, and they just looked lost and got totally humiliated… we better win this one!
I turned it off at 7-0. I watched three episodes of that LV pawnshop show. Did I miss anything.
Apparently not. I hope the Skins don’t play like a wounded grizzly bear next week. They must be completely demoralized. A good thing I think, as far as our chances go. Zorn’s eyes, what little I saw duing the lowlites, looked like two piss holes in the snow. I remember liking Zorn in his playing days, and was disappointed when he left Dallas for Sealttle. I don’t really remember what the circumstances were when he left. I hope he does well elsewhere. I don’t wish the skins any luck at all.
Family, Friends, Cowboys, Beer & BBQ. Life is good!
