#1SkinsFan Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Just wondering. Looking at the PRESENT NFC, I feel that we can beat ANYBODY......right now. I look at the current NFC playoff race. The two 'highest rated' NFC teams both have lost to us. We have beat everyone in our division at least once. With Joe Gibbs getting a better handle on the current NFL and with our stellar defensive coaching staff (which I hope stays intact), are we actually primed for a 3, 4 or 5 year run at the playoffs (similar to what the Eagles have done lately).....or are we just having a good year THIS year, and are resigned to make our beds in the muck & mire of mediocrity??? I mean, we have all the tools, and have a future QB for the team in Jason Campbell. Most of our players are young, and have been able to handle business as of late and get us back into the playoff race. With a few picks in the draft to sure up our D-Line and Wr's, could we be the team of the future, that everybody will be scared to play? ( not to mention that we have one of the hardest stadiums to play in, in all of the NFL)! thoughts???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostic Hog Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I think to be that perennial power, we need a long term, franchise QB. Can you say Jason Campbell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactitle Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 It would be nice to have this turn into something special. After having my heart broke so much in the past I can only hope this is the return of the skins of old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsNeverDie Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I think we match up against Seattle very nicely...and we already beat them. But they look like they've gotten a lot better since we last played them. We beat the Bears, and the Giants. The 3 teams already guranteed a playoff spot.

#1SkinsFan Posted December 27, 2005 Author Share Posted December 27, 2005 i read this early this morning and it brought a smile to my face. Return of the Redskins Surely, it's a momentum that has been building for the Redskins all month long. Written off as regular-season fodder at the end of November, Washington has remade its image into one that looks like yet another dangerous NFC playoff team. And in a conference that seems to have only one clearly elite team in the Seahawks, there's no telling what the Redskins can pull off from this point on. "Guys are motivated," Gibbs said. "They are excited." This is exactly why i believe we are the soon to be "team to beat in the NFC!" HTTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :notworthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Playoff teams play the way we have the past two weeks, especially against division foes. The problem is that our division will only get better. Philly be be closer to form next year. Parity is rampant.....just look at Da Bears. We make the playoffs and the target on our back just grows bigger. It's hard to predict a team of the future in the NFC, especially with the salary cap.

onedrop Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 i want to be the team of right now. ill worry about the future in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Kenzo Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I think we have all the right players to make a run. However, I really want Jason Campbell needs to become our qb of the future because I do not think Brunell has that much left in him and Ramsey is a really big question mark. Everything else is in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1SkinsFan Posted December 27, 2005 Author Share Posted December 27, 2005 GUYS: The Skins are in good shape for the long haul. Contrary to popular believe they're fine cap-wise and should even be able to sign one or two top free agents. Don't expect the skins to lose any starters and they'll probably upgrade at one DE spot, WR, and LG. They also have one of the younger teams in the league. This team is built for a 4-5 year run, possibly longer because without any immediate needs they can make draft choices similar to Campbell where they can ride the pine for a few years before starting.

Westbrook36 Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Depends how your QB situation pans out. Period. You got good QB play this year and, surprise surprise, are a very good balanced offensive ballclub. If Campbell is great, you will be great. If he is a bust, you will not be the team of the future as you will waste a few years looking for the next diamond in the rough. This is why it's so great to know that Dallas is on borrowed time. Seriously, once Parcells quits on them and Bledsoe shortely thereafter, what does the future hold for them at the QB position? Henson? :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skins have been very balanced this year, mixing up the run and pass well, and despite the defense giving up some big plays, they have been solid. If Campbell is the QB we have been longing for, then we could be a very solid, and possibly great team in the NFC in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they'd be in for another asswhoopin if we do end up playing them again, but in the playoffs. BTW, in our sweep of Dallas, we outscored them 49-20! :laugh: :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atloldskin Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 I think we are the NFC team of the Present and the Future. We need a long-term QB that can garner a rating of 80 or better to extend this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli to Burress Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 The Skins could be a tough team for awhile. It's just a matter of getting Campbell some playing time and hoping it won't take long to mature. And then there's the fact that the NFC east looks like it'll be beating up on each other for the next few years which is a disadvantage compared to the schedules Seattle and Chicago end up with.

SkinsHokieFan Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Gibbs had a team to fear for pretty much the entire 80s, with several QB's I don't think it matters if JC is *the guy* If Gibbs can find a mistake free QB that is all its really going to take. He is going to ride Portis the rest of his time in Washington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabR Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 are we actually primed for a 3, 4 or 5 year run at the playoffs I can't see it with salaries at 113 million next year which is about 20 million over the cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
