Where they're especially miserable: Basically a quarter-century of substandard football and an overall lack of downfield vision. The Redskins are one of two NFC teams that haven't made it to an NFC Championship Game since 1991 (the Lions are the other) and have won only two playoff games since their last Super Bowl title in 1991.

Rays of hope: There really aren't many. They have three Super Bowl titles they can try to take pride in, but the last of those happened 27 years ago. They were hoping the steady hand of Alex Smith could right the ship, but he suffered a gruesome, Theismann-esque broken leg, so who knows where they'll go next.

Trend: The Redskins can't catch a break. Things were looking good behind Smith and a resurgent defense, but then they lost their top two quarterbacks for the season to injuries. Where does Washington go from here? There doesn't seem to be a good path right now.

FedEx will be empty next year, minus opposing team’s fans. The XFL might draw more at Audi Field. At least it’s actually here in DC
 
Lol we’re supposedly talking to Williams again. I can’t fathom he doesn’t laugh at us and use it to get more money from the Jets.
 
Lots of mock drafts have Murray available at 15. That’s what’s going to happen. Because, me. Has what appears to be a sure fire MLB career ahead of him with my beloved A’s, but will pass it up to fail in the NFL. Yay
 
Also, was there any doubt Smith was going to miss the whole season? That’s been common knowledge here in DC since before Christmas
