So...

I have compiled a comprehensive list of games you can expect the Redskins to be competitive in for the rest of the season. It is as follows:

  • Week 14: @ Oakland Raiders

About right, though I think they'll steal an irrational win somewhere, possibly vs. Dallas, Philly or San Diego.

Truly sad thing - they could finish 4-12 and wind up with the 7th pick...

True, but if they do end up with the 7th pick, hopefully that's far enough back that Tebow will be gone, and they won't be tempted.

As much as I like Orakpo, I'm still pissed that they passed on Michael Oher given the situation with the O-Line.

There's also the scenario where Sam Bradford is available when they pick -- which could be a political minefield considering he's Cherokee.

Well, clearly we're done with Campbell -- maybe not for the season, but after this season, no question. Honestly, with as bad as I think they're going to do the rest of the season, I'd love to see them trade him for picks, if possible. I only wish JaMarcus Russell hadn't done as not-horribly as he did today, because Al Davis gives out draft picks like it's going out of style.

I, too, like Orakpo. I do wish that they'd traded down to get some O-line help (Oher, like you say), but if they were going to stick at 13 (which... obviously they were) I don't have a problem with him. So, basically, I think he was as good a player-use of the 13 pick as we could have made, but I wish they hadn't used 13 for a player.

Dammit! I was desperately hoping my Rams had a shot at them - or the Titans.

Nope, we already barely managed to eke out a 2 point win against the Rams (9-7) and don't play Tennessee this year.

One small problem there: the Raiders managed to beat the Eagles today, and the Eagles are, quite frankly, a better team than the 'Skins right now.

This season's been weird for the whole league, though. It's been hard to know what to expect from anybody week-to-week. Your guys could surprise you.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply we'd *beat* the Raiders. Just that we'd be competitive. And honestly, the Eagles are better than the Raiders. They just had a really off day.

Also, we know what to expect from New Orleans: awesomeness. Basically.

I find your optimism amusing. Much like a fly with one wing stuck in a refrigerator door.

Side Note:
You need to find more free time dude, without your supervision I've made odd/disturbing icons. Like this one. Take a close look at where the lollipop is coming from (and you don't even want to see the texted versions of this pic). On the plus side, in January/February you shall fall in love with the gal in this icon.
