I miss the days when there was no number one wide reciever. Just Riggo and the Hogs. So Riggo and the Hogs just ran the ball 40 times a game for the victory! Or when you knew there was no running game. I mean, Timmy Smith? Whose that? So the Hogs opened up holes that you and I could run through! Or when you knew the Hogs were just pissed off! Having had two quarterbacks knocked out against Buddy Ryan's tough 46 defense in Philly...........Those Hogs regrouped and got him back!...

Thank you for the kind words, brother. I'm not sure about the return of Russ Grimm theory, but on the surface of things it WOULD be one heck of a way to transition from JZ, assuming this coming season is his last in D.C.
I know exactly where you're coming from re: the good old days, my friend. GOD do I know... The Gibbs 1.0 years were seasons when ANY team in the NFL looked at their schedule, saw the 'Skins there, and almost immediately started mentally preparing themselves for that game. Home or away, rain or shine, injuries or not, the Sunday (or Monday) you had to strap it on against the B&G was going to be the most physical of games no matter the outcome. They were flat-out TOUGH. They knew it, and so did everybody else.
I believe we'll eventually see a return to that brand of Redskins football -- I just don't know how far in the future that will be. Until then, all we fans can do is just hang tough, and keep on keeping on.
Hail.
