Ancalagon the Black Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Isn't it fun to be winning again? Since we have several days to savor the anticipation, why not look back to see if we can wring any great memories out of the black hole that was the first decade of the 2000s? Let's take the opportunity to post our Team of the Decade—the Redskin players who were best at their positions from 2000 to 2009. (I know the decade officially started in 2001, but let's keep it simple.) So here are the rules: 1. For each position listed below, post ONE name of the Redskin you thought played the position best during the 2000–2009 period. 2. Only consider play that actually happened during that period. For example, if you're thinking of Stephen Davis, you can't include his performance in 1999 when you consider him. Simple, right? Here you go. (I'll post my personal team lower down so as not to bias anyone.)

Rpredskins Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Fortunately the '99 team played in the playoffs in the year 2000 so I can say Brad Johnson and Stephen Davis. That was the only other really good, balanced offense we have had in the past 20 years. RG3/Morris have already supplanted those guys for me though (Johnson and Davis basically only had one year as well so it's not like they had some kind of long legacy).

DogofWar1 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I'm pretty sure the answer is basically the 2005 team with a few changes on defenses (Champ Bailey, Landry,) Yeah, this is pretty much what I was thinking, though I'd like to pull in Fletcher, early career Arrington, get Bailey, Landry, and Taylor all together in the secondary with probably 04 Springs or maybe Smoot. Orakpo should be there, though he'd probably need a slightly different build to play 4-3 DE. Campbell and Brunell are close, which says alot about what we were working with, and I'd snag Coles for WR2, but other than WR2 it's all '05 on O. Also, for HC, most people probably pick Gibbs, and I won't argue that that's a solid pick, but I feel like Schottenheimer, if given more time, could have done some good.

2STaylor1 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 QB: Jason Campbell..i supported him and am still prob wrong for it but was a huge part for that time RB: Portis.. no question FB: Sellers WR1: Santana WR2: lavernarod gardcoles-el TE: Cooley OT1: Samuels OT2: Jansen (i like to pronounce it as yansen cuz its fun) OG1: Thomas OG2: Dockery C: do i have to say Rabach?

elkabong82 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I can't believe Darrell Green isn't making people's lists. Green has just 3 seasons that qualify and although he's obviously great it was at the tail end of his career. Bailey had 4 seasons, started off very well, and Springs had 5 seasons with us and 2 of those we made playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
