Yet TJ has us as the surprise of the week for beating the Falcons. What does that say about us?

Whoa... wait.... someone on ESPN actually ranked us high? And said something good on top of it?

Start digging your bomb shelters now, a gigantic rock is bound to fall from the sky in the next few days.

It better be #1. I'm tired of his slighting the Skins week in and week out.

I'm gonna say 17. I'd like to see us higher, but I just can't find many teams we'd pass right now.

Just keep us off the SI cover and the media can build a neighbourhood on our so called bandwaggon for all I care.

Second week in and 2-0. There are only 9 other teams (if the NYG win tonight) without a lost, so I'd say NO LESS than #9.

I can't wait to see the Eagles on the SI power rankings, after Dr. Z's promise to bury them if they lost again.

Funny you should memtion the Eagles - I thought for sure their fans would burn down that new stadium. Damn it was fun looking at the faces of those fans on TV. I couldn't stop laughing.

Tom--remember, we will be seeing you Sunday. Take that as a threat!

Peter King of SI actually had a positive (i think) quote about the Skins:

"Washington has what I thought would be its death spiral coming up in the next five weeks -- Giants, Patriots, at Eagles, Bucs, at Bills. But now, at 2-0 and with Steve Spurrier managing quarterback Patrick Ramsey superbly, the Redskins are a threat to win any of those games."

That's strong for King when it comes to the Skins. I imagine typing the words was very dificult for him.

No Way! Redskins, mentioned. My god even at 6-2 in 2000 I never remember anything like that. These next five games are big though. No cupcakes there.
