Happy 2008

I realize that it has been a long time since I have regularly updated this blog but in the tradition of New Year's resolutions, one of mine is to update this blog more frequently. But first things first, congrats to the Skins for making the playoffs despite the emotional and injury drains.

We get another shot at Seattle in the playoffs and considering where this team picked itself up from, we should be considered by everyone in the NFC as the scariest team in the playoffs. Excluding the loss to the Patriots, even when the Skins were down they managed to keep their other losses within 8 points.

It will take a lot to make the Super Bowl and it will take even more to beat the AFC rep, but I don't see any reason why Washington won't make it. Granted we beat a down Dallas team and we also lost to Green Bay and Tampa Bay during the regular season, but again, those were close games coming down to the final drive.

The postseason already got more exciting with Washington earning the final spot, but the fact that we actually have a shot at advancing makes it even better.
