Redskins vs. Championship Teams over the last 10 Years

[skinsguy]

That's a hard reality, Longtimefan! But yet, it's fact! And since that last time the Redskins have made it to championship weekend, they have only had four playoff appearances. It's no wonder the younger fan has a short leash on coaches/players/team itself.... they don't know what it truly means to root for an elite/great team like the Redskins were in the 80's. They can't fathom the thought of looking forward to football on Sunday with the confidence knowing that more times than not, the Redskins are going to win.

And even for long time fans like us....we have tasted that, but have forgotten that feeling! Just for a short while, I had that feeling again when Joe Gibbs had came back. Even though he wasn't very successful in his second tenure, I had that faith in the team again. It's going to take Shanahan consecutive winning, playoff seasons for me to have that confidence in another Redskins coach.
