Anyone watch the game last night? I did not but read about it on NFL.com. Take the Oakland Raiders and replace it with the Washington Redskins, and it sounds like a Norv Turner Redskin team. I am a Skins fan and I hated having him as the head coach. I wonder if he still sounds whiney when he loses. The sports media in DC should send Oakland all the Norv Turner recordings, explaining the latest lose. They all sound the same!
Anyway, being a Skins fan, I am somewhat excited about this upcoming year. I think the Skins will surprise a lot of people. I think they will go 10-6 and make the playoffs as a wildcard. It will be interesting to see how they look in this weeks game.

"An anonymous wise man once said, "the only good preseason is a finished preseason...with, like, no major injuries.""
I wasn't at the Encino Mall during the mid-80's to hear that comment.

Is there a redskins fan pinglist? Fire up the Bandwagon!
Whatever that guy was drinking, pour me one! They will be better than last year but 10-6? no way. With the schedule we have, 8-8 will be major progress.

Great article...I'm buying the hype. Joe Gibbs was one of my favorite 'Skins' coaches. Even though he is a
retired Hall of Famer who has been asked to salvage and revitalize what is arguably the best franchise in pro sports...he has the support of fans around the country (world?) who love their Washington Redskins!
If someone starts a ping list please add this 52 year fan.

I like your optimism. Don't know about 10-6, but I'll take an improved offense and a few more wins.
I want to see Gibbs succeed. Some of my fondest childhood memories were those Championship years. Riggo up the middle and Monk on third down. Darrell Green hurdling into the end zone on a frozen playoff day in Chicago...
I also miss the look on Jack Kent Cooke's face when some reporter would ask if he thought the name "Redskin" was offensive!
