I honestly agree with Norv Turner, I think we were heading toward having a team that was taking the next step up the latter. We barely lost a playoff game that could have gotten us into the NFC championship in that one playoff season...and like Turner said, I believe we had a good nucleus of young players. Sure, it took us forever it seemed to finally get the team winning again, but let us not forget that a couple years prior to that season, the Redskins were 8-1 before the defense collapsed. To this day, I will still believe that if Snyder had not went on that spending spree, Turner's team could have went further. Water under the bridge now though...but I will always respect Turner and think if Al Davis gives him a chance, he'll turn the Raiders around (even though I HATE the Raiders!)
