Thanks Spence!!! it sure must be nice to write these articles after a game like yesterday . . . sure hope we have lots more moments of fun and optimism for a long long time!!

There is no way the team we saw play yesterday loses 9 games this year. Play at that level and we will be relevant in December for playoff talk. 3-0 on the turnover margin and score 40 points? That's going to win a lot of games.

lets just hope they can keep it up . . . they had a long time to game plan for this game . . . now only a week to game plan for the next opponent and they seem to give the Skins fits no matter how bad they are . . . AND they look much improved to me this year as they are much healthier and far better coached than last year . . .

Yeah, now we see what they will do with minimal time to game plan for an opponent, plus, STL now has film to use to prep their defense for what they will see, an advantage NO did not have.

I also hope we didn't see all the new wrinkles in this one game. Keep something in reserve for future opponents.

I agree, but how often will the Redskins look like that? Everyone was feeling pretty good after we beat the Giants by two touchdowns in last year's season opener. Rest of the season didn't go so well. To be sure, beating the Saints in New Orleans is a more impressive victory, but considering the history of the Redskins, I need to see more data before I let my optimism off the leash it's been on for the last 20 years.

The two victories are completely different, IMO. Rex had an INT in that game and the offense only scored 21 (other 7 came from Kerrigan). Additionally, the Giants are not the same level team, their playoff run not withstanding. Redskins scoring 40 against the Saints and still left points on the field.

If they play like they did against the Saints, they will win 9 games at a minimum. The question is can they duplicate it (as far as points scored and TO margin) and keep improving?
