Can this team win out and take the Super Bowl? Absolutely. Will they though? I wouldn't bet any money on it.

And Tampa was 28th in pass defense. No team is perfect across the board, and our defense found ways to shut down teams in crunch time. Who knows how it will play out, but if Marshon and Sanristil are covering the back, that gives us a lot more strength to shut down runners.

I've been watching 1991 Redskins highlights all night. What Dan Snyder did to this franchise is beyond comprehension. Evil fucking troll.

But watching those highlights was awesome and Harris/Peters/Daniels are bringing us back. Life is short, I hope we're all here for it.

When I look back at that season and you compare the game now, it's like night and day. The game is so different today. But the same things still matter. In order to have a chance to win it all you need elite QB play, you need a strong o-line and you need a defense that can rush the passer, stop the run and create some turnovers.

We just aren't a complete enough team right now to make a SB run. I don't think Tampa is that kind of team either. We can win this one, I wouldn't be surprised either way if we won or lost.

We definitely aren't a complete team. But even with all the holes we have, still went 12-5. We have 3 very important pieces in place, Owner, GM, & QB. You could make a valid argument for 4, if you add Quinn.

We would have to go on an EPIC run to even make the Super Bowl this year. But starting next year, playing to make the Super Bowl is the expectation imo.
