Here's a little trivia for you. The number 6 team on this list is the 1981 San Diego Chargers coached by Don Coryell. Joe Gibbs helped build that team as O-coordinator up to the 1980 season. He was hired by the Redskins for the '81 season. For more on Gibbs' career, look here.

not exactly sure, but he was the WR coach of the 1999 Rams team. I think they ranked 2nd all time on this list

Re: 83 Skins Rank #4 All Time

I have been a skins fan since the mid 70's and the 1983 team is the best Redskins team I have ever seen. I have magazines from 1983 comparing the redskins to the 1970's Steelers leading up to Super Bowl XVIII. Had they not laid an egg that day in the super bowl we would be talking about one of the greatest teams in NFL History let alone Redskins history.

When You consider the 1983 teams greatness you also have to take into account that they played that year as defending champions which means that everyone was gunning for them. In spite of that they lost only 2 games by 1 point each and set a record for points scored that stood for 15 years. We saw how the pressure and complacency of a championship unraveled the other two Redskins title defenses. That was simply a great team...

You are right the league didn't start 25 years ago, but like someone stated earlier in this thread the game evolved and changed alot since it did start. Maybe they should have started from when the AFL and the NFL merged. Would that have ben better for you?

Also your example of Barry Bonds is just bad!! As to your half hearted attempt with Jim Brown. Again you need to be reminded that they are individuals not the whole offense or team. Againg if the list was top (insert individual contribution) then your examples of Jim Brown and Barry Bonds would fit.

As for "the Giants have never had a top five O....ever" I wouldn't know, but I would not be surprised if they didn't!!!!

But read the first line of the first post in this thread

"Actually CNN ranks 83 redskins offense fourth best in the last 25 years, NOT best of all time."

The creator of this thread lured us in with a sexy headline, so that here we are 6 pages later still talking about it.

Re: 83 Skins Rank #4 All Time

I'm so confused...I can slowly feel my brain cells ooze out of me as I try to grasp G-One's argument

Somebody throw me a lifeline, anyone....NY_Skinsfan, a little help.

Re: 83 Skins Rank #4 All Time

It's like what your sig says. "I like people just fine. It's the morons that I don't care for." Well, for someone to be arguing about 25 years vs. who the hell cares, that's just simply "moronic." Mr. Giantone, you are simply a moron. Bash me all you want, I won't respond because there is no point, to me you are wall, nothing sinks in, it just bounces right off.
