Growing up, I was a Redskins fan. Afterall, D.C. is my birthplace. However, I have grown up in Southern Maryland my entire life, which officially makes me a native Marylander as far as I'm concerned. I have not been impressed with the Redskins for quite some time now, but the Ravens have given me a new hope, and I can proudly proclaim that I am a new Ravens fan. GO ALL THE WAY!!!

Not trying to be a Ravens martyr, but I do believe we had some really bad calls throughout this season that determined the outcome of three separate games. So, while our record is currently 10-5, we should have a couple/few more in the win column. Sure we could have eliminated any loss with more points on the board, but those calls hurt bad. It's hard to have any confidence in the integrity of the NFL and it's refs. Yes it's just a game, but one we invest a lot of heart and emotion in. Hopefully/Fortunately, the best will be calling the playoff games. Neither here nor there, we are proving to be a serious Superbowl contender. I am sad we wont get to watch the playoffs from our home field, but we play well on the road, so Go Ravens! Make your fans proud and stomp on Jacksonville this weekend!

"This is not to say John Harbaugh is a better coach than Jim Zorn, but the Ravens right now are a better team and a dangerous one." This is a pivotal sentence. It takes more than hype to win a football game and the Redskins have done little to show that they want to do it. Zorn can call the right plays, manage the clock and move people around but if all he has is deadweight, he is moving deck chairs on the Titanic for all it will get him. This year has been a disappointment. It is time for the team to clean house at key positions and forget about winning a Super Bowl for few season and focus instead on some good solid team building. Get rid of the showboats, the under performers and keep the coaches. Sadly, we all know that Zorn's days are numbered becuase that is the way the current Redskins administration does things.
