I'm getting that old feeling...

Back in the 80's when the Redskins were winning Super Bowls, I used to have a feeling about the team. This underlying belief and faith that the team would come to play and to beat the Redskins and Joe Gibbs, the opposition would have to bring their A game.
As this season has progressed, I have begun to sense a shift. For all of you too young to remember the first Gibbs tenure, this feeling about the Redskins that we all have now, was a constant, undeniable confidence. I am starting to see that indescribable, mysterious "energy" coming from Gibbs. He is focused, intense and has an enormous will to win and the team is feeding off of it. I did not sense this about the Redskins of '05. I think that team was surprised to be there in the playoffs and didn't really have the moxy to go all the way.
Will the Redskins win this weekend? I don't know. We'll see how it shakes out. All I know is that "feeling" is back. #21 is definitely still impacting the team and provides an intangible that can only help the Redskins of '07 go beyond all expectations.
I hope there are some members here that know what I'm talking about. That...feeling.
Peace out/West Side
HTTR!!
