I'm not so sure about that. The '99 and 2000 teams were his most talented squads and he was a blocked field goal away from the NFC championship game. And if you remember, the '99 team still had major issues with the defense. The preceding years didn't come close to the makeup of those two rosters.

It's been a long time since 1994-1998. Time heals the wounded heart, and I think there's been some selective amnesia amongst Redskins fans as to how bad those teams really were.

Not saying Norv was flawless, and I'm not calling for his return or anything. But I'll go on record as saying that many in Washington will wonder what might have been once they see what the Chargers do this year.
