just channel surfing and happened to see the 1982 superbowl team on the nfl network

gotta tell you, i still get goosebumps watching that story

got me fired up for this year because there are a lot of similarities. especially the disrespect that team got all throughout the year. the way they grew to depend upon each other as teammates and the respect and love they obviously had for each other.

clearly they were not the most talented team to reach the superbowl. and they won an awful lot of very close games to even get to the playoffs. but they had character, and characters, by the ton. their offense was the more highly rated unit, especially the o line, but the defense did enough to keep them in games and the special teams were the difference in a lot of games.

i could easily see the 2007 redskins following the same trajectory
