With the offseason mags coming out, the consensus seems to be the Redskins will be in last place in the NFC East with anywhere from 4-6 wins. For a playoff team that was one of the hottest teams entering the post season & returning 22 starters, what factors do you think national writers are using?

(Mods-Poll please)
New Coach/System Uncertainty
Everyone else in the division is simply better
We got lucky last year and weren't that good anyways
General disregard for all positive things Redskins
