Hail Redskins! (Redux)

In a little less than hour the 2007 NFL season will kick off which means that it is time for me to make a prediction on how the Washington Redskins will perform this year. Last year I was a little wide of the mark, predicting that the

‘Skins finish the regular season 16-0, winning the NFC East along the way. They then march triumphantly through the playoffs to the Superbowl where they meet and defeat the Indianapolis Colts.

That didn’t happen. (Although I’d like to point out that I did correctly predict that the Colts would win the AFC Championship, an outcome that seems more and more just by the day.)

So, what’s my prediction for this season. Well, I’m not prepared to make a prediction on how many games Washington will win, but, based on their modest offseason acquisitions and decent preseason form, my carefully measured opinion is that they are an unstoppable juggernaut destined for Super Bowl glory. I think they’ll be playing the San Diego Chargers in the big game.

Super Bowl Bound!
