Skins Edge Bears

While it's great that the Skins were victorious, it's extremely disappointing that it barely happened against one of the weaker teams in the league starting a rookie quarterback. I'm sure we all hoped that the Skins would be able to force Orton into throwing 4 picks and that the Skins would win in a rout. The Bears were only able to score because of Antonio Brown fumbling so they got a very short field to work with.

The fact that Washington barely beat Chicago reveals what all Skins fans feared but hoped might not be true, that the Skins are also bottom dwellers. With the kinds of mistakes that they made on offense and special teams, they won't be able to compete with better teams, like Dallas on Monday night.
