I am not going to even look back to see when the Redskins were first in the NFC East because it has been TOO long. But with the win over the Browns and the HUGE Giants Loss, the Redskins are now in a three way tie for first place in the NFC East. This season is far from over and the Redskins still control there destiny. With two divisional games with the weeks to come there is still a lot to be decided in the NFC East. One thing though is for certain, Captain Kirk came to play this Sunday Putting up 329 Passing Yards, 2 TD's, with a minor blimp of 1 INT. Kirk not only got a win, but also showed why Coach Shannahan took Cousins when he did. This brings up an interested discussion now, seeing as though the Redskins are lacking first round draft picks for the years to come, Kirk now has some trade value if the need is there. I personally would like him to stay, not much really changed with the offense and I like having a solid backup rather than GROSSman.
All the skins came out to play, Morris having another monster game with two TD's and rushing again for over a 100 yards. Not to mention Leonard Hankerson had a career game posting TWO TD's for the first time ever. I think the one thing that has stood out in my mind for the past weeks is the discipline of the defense. I would have never imagined Haslett being able to put the pieces together and allowing this defense that didn't know what football was in the 4th quarter to now hunker down and play better in the latter half of the game. This isn't what the NFL is used to in years past, and is only the beginning!
Let's hope the RED HOT Washington Redskins can keep this up and steam-roll there way into the playoffs!
Hail to the Redskins!
