Proof This Team is Cursed

And let's not forget the injuries took place on a football field, with football players, wearing football equipment. Scary.

Don't forget, both plays happened on grass too, that's enough evidence for me to say we're cursed.

I don't want to give the wrong impression here.

Coincidence? Yes.
Cursed? No.

Outside of Gibbs 1.0. Jay has been the most successful coach we have had. Back to back winning seasons. Has the team fighting for a second divisional title in his tenure. I will take it for right now.

People can be so dramatic around here. Acting like the Vinny/Jim Zorn/Steve Spurrier years didn't happen and everything is SO horrible.



Things are pretty bad. How many playoff appearances since 93? How many playoff wins since 93? What’s our record since 93? How many embarrassing blunders has this team went through since 93? Compare us to the Browns over that tenure. You get my point.

What if all you knew was misery?

What if your best memory of an entire Redskins season was them going 10-6 (only due to a 5-0 run at the end of the year?).

What if all the times you had witnessed the Redskins make the playoffs in the last 15 years they had to scrape in by the skin of their teeth only to get bounced in the first or second round (in 2005)?

What if you had never really witnessed a true "build a team through the draft like all other yearly contenders in the NFL" and the one time you did, they fired one of the main architects and made up a lie to use as reasoning?

What if every time the team managed to get your hopes up, they found new ways to comically crush your dreams?

For years I didn't mind, dc sports misery was all I knew. But now I've gotten a taste of the good life, I've had the experience of seeing one of my teams compete at the highest levels and walk away champions. I want more for this team. If the Eagles can go from laughingstocks under Chip Kelly to SB champs in a few years why not us?

Exactly.

It's only because we focus on the Redskins and no one else. Would you guys rather make the playoffs every year only to shit the bed? Aside from this year, I wonder how Chiefs fans feel when Reid sucks ass in the playoffs year after year?

For me, all I ask is we're playing meaningful games for most of the year so I can stay invested. That's what 31 out of 32 teams get to deal with anyway when it's all said and done.

Exactly. I started following football the year after Gibbs retired. That was 25 years ago. What have fans like me witnessed since then? Let that sink in....it’s bad.

Since 1993 The skins have had 8 winning seasons, 5 playoff appearances, and 3 divisional titles.

The Browns have had 3 winning seasons, 2 playoff appearances and 1 divisional title.

We are much more similar to the Bears
8 winning seasons, 4 playoff appearances and 4 divisional titles (they did go to the Super Bowl with sexy Rexy)

First place with a HUGE division game coming up and people are crying about the past like we're 0-10 right now, talking about curses, etc. Get a grip folks.

How is a team cursed? Does someone wave a majic wan and put a cloud over the team? Is it the Indians doing it because they don't like the team name? Is it George Preston Marshall because the Redskins now have a lot of black players? Is Jack Kent Cooke doing this from his grave because he doesn't like Dan Snyder? GTFO w/ this cursed BS.

Yay we aren’t as cursed as the Browns. Lol.
