• the Redskins of the last five regular season games are different than of the first twelve games and then run the numbers to show why.
• The Redskins are on a mission having won its last six. At some point, this ceases to be a fluke.
• The Redskins don't need no offense, apparently. Mark Brunell throws for 41 yards and wins. Tiki Barber rushes for 41 yards and loses. The Bucs held the Redskins to 120 yards offense and still lost. The Bucs offense out gained the Redskins and still lost. By themselves, stats don't mean anything.

Does Joe Gibbs have to win the Super Bowl again before someone suspects his influence? :frusty:

M4C,

You should email that to Sean S. and Tom Jackson at ESPN.

Good facts.
