I had a discussion with a fellow Redskin fan about the 3-13 and 4-12 records in consecutive seasons. The fellow Redskin fan said that woulda coulda shoulda stuff. 3-13 could have easily been 9-7 or 8-8 in 2013 and 4-12 could have been 5-11 or 7-9 in 2014. HOF head coach Bill Parcells once said that a team is what it's record indicates but a lot of people don't necessarily agree with that. Looking at last year's games, were there any games that the Redskins lost that they should have won? Were they truly a 4-12 team or a potentially 8-8 team that concluded the season at 4-12? Outside of the first Philly game and maybe the second NYG game, were there any other games that the team was in a strong position to win that they ended up losing?
Plenty in my honest opinion. Including Seattle in primetime last season. That's one I can think of for sure.

There might have been a few games here and there we could have won and didn't, but the flipside is true as well. It may not even out exactly, but in the end, if you're a good team you'll have a good record.

Last year was the most depressing, soul crushing year I have ever had as a Skins' fan. I have wiped it from my memory.

The last two years have wiped me out as a fan. Hoping to at least see some progress this year of a team being built the right way and headed towards sustained success.

For me it's been the last 2 years. Honestly the only game I remember winning last year was the first Cowboys game. I remember getting blown out a few times too but other than that I don't care to revisit those memories.

To me the zorn era was the bleakest...but eff last year. McC is here and I sense a new energy around the team. Still hoping one of the young qb takes the next step this year.

I remember being sky high Griffs first year. I thought we had found a Franchise QB for at least the next ten years. The last two years are buried in the past as far as I'm concerned. Fortunately I think we have a GM that can build a team the way we did in the days of glory. Tough hardnosed FOOTBALL PLAYERS. My spirit has come back to life. All I know is our record the last two years and it doesn't lie. Simply put...we SUCKED.
