I hate the cowher love, or the anybody but who we have love- it is the essence of what made Snyder a bad owner in the beginning:
Look at the Giants D, how many ex Skins are on it, but we had to have a star
Look at the backup qbs in the league, how many are ex Skins.
Football, and winning football, is developed through PATIENCE, finding talent, and growth of that talent.

I am sick of the constant tumult of the Skins, I too want to see multiple SB championships come to DC, but the way to do that is NOT by seeking the latest/greatest, but by working with and growing the talent we have.
thanks for listening to my I really needed to vent all this.

Not that I'm joining the Cower bandwagon, but my God, to downplay him by saying he only won one Super Bowl is a little ridiculous. In fifteen years, he won one Super Bowl, won two Conference Championships and appeared in 5 Conference Championship games and went to the playoffs ten times! And with the exception of Roethlisberger, he had crap quarterbacks. Bill Cower, on average, took the Steelers to the conference Championship game every three years. Put it another way, in the last 17 years in which the Redskins have been unable to win a divisional playoff game, Bill Cower won 5.

His teams went deep into the playoffs with consistent regularity over a long span of years. Let's not just say the man's only accomplishment was one Super Bowl in 15 years.
