I don't see it at all either but AP must be on dope because he says we have the talent on both sides of the ball to run the table.

We don't have talent on the defensive side of the ball?

place a bet for us to win the division. +2200.

I don't like that bet at all! I don't know where you are getting your numbers from but I track about 12 different sportsbooks in the USA and offshore and in every case the Redskins are last in the NFC East in futures betting. The best number I can find on the Redskins to win the NFC East is +1600 and I wouldn't like the bet even if there was a +2200 out there.

Current Las Vegas Odds to win the NFC East:

Cowboys 1 to 1
Eagles 7 to 5
Giants 8 to 1
Redskins 12 to 1

Heck, even in Game #1 we are a 6 point home dog to the Eagles so you might want to reconsider.

That sounds about right.

You can bet against the bookies but they are pretty close to right most of the time.

6 to 9 wins coming up this year.

Defense much improved.

Team discipline much improved.

I wouldnt be surprised if the redskins contend for the division next year.

Not this year though.

best defense in the division. I take a shot at +2200. The 49ers did it last year. They had to be huge dogs to win the division.

Absolutely or they wouldn't be spending millions of dollars in bright lights at their sportsbooks to blind public bettors who lose 90% of the time. I've been very fortunate over the years in getting good information from a good friend who manages a large sportsbook in Vegas who tells me how the public is betting a given game and I simply bet the opposite way. It works!

I agree with most of your post but I still think we might be a couple of years away from contending, rather than pretending, for the division.

3 to 5 yrs is my estimate to be a perennial contender .

the culture won’t change over night

I don't gamble, it is one of the few vices I didn't get. I'll just say I am very familiar, I have some friends also and they know what they are doing. The reason I know they know what they are doing …. I have known them and their record over 50 years.

Good for your friends because numbers don't lie!
