Tandler and El-Bashir debate whether or not the Redskins are Super Bowl contenders. I'm agreeing with Tandler here. Yes, the Redskins are contenders.

I think the Redskins are fringe SB contenders.. It will depend on health and matchups in the playoffs. I think they are the favorites to win the East and should win 10 games or so. From there, if they get a home game against a dome team vs. Atlanta or New Orleans that will help in the divisional round. If they get a tough draw like having to go to Seattle or GB, that'll make it tougher.

All roads go thru SF from how I see it, it would be nice for them to get knocked off in the divisional round.

IMO we are a Super Bowl contender. I've been watching the 49ers and Falcons more closely than usual this offseason for this reason. I see them as "the competition." I've gotta say, such beats the heck out of situations where "the competition" was for 3rd place in the NFCE.
