I don't know. Seimien (or however the fuck you spell it) really wasn't that bad tonight. First start as a pro, starting against the defending NFC champs and an underdog to boot. He's a virtual rookie, but rose to the occasion showing a lot of poise along the way. First defending champ ever to win the opener after trailing by 10 in the fourth. All that being said, I don't think he's the long term answer and I've really seen nothing from Paxton to convince me he's a better choice. The team management screwed the pooch when they let Osweiller walk. Hopefully it won't bite us in the ass too hard.

Graham hit the first one when they called the time out, then over corrected and shanked it. Oooooops.

Football weekend! Somehow, it just isn't the same watching your team without their star quarterback. I can't put my finger on it.

I picked the Cowboys only because it was at home, glad they lost but, as a Skins fan, don't like facing them the next week after they lose. But one good thing is that it is in Washington. I don't however like what I see in their QB, same old same old, move the ball down the field at will, plus they picked up Morris our former RB. Playing the Cowboys has always been for the Skins like trying to catch a greased pig.

I absolutely bombed this week. I'm thinking somewhere around 30%.

At least the lions pulled one out of their ass for a win.
