As Fredskin mentioned, I'm going to rehash it here. The fault lies in organizations or players who decided to cross the picket line. Dallas and other teams had their own regular players play during these replacement player games while the Redskins had 0. The Redskins management didn't go into any different direction. That statement is clearly false. With the direction of Redskins GM Bobby Beathard, the team got a great bunch of replacement players, that were coached up well, and performed admirably. Joe Bugel even said that it was those bunch of nobodies who served as the bridge for the Redskins to make it to the Super Bowl that year.
