Redskins Odds to Win Super Bowl

The Washington Redskins have only been to the playoffs five times since Dan Snyder took over as the owner of the team in 1999. Snyder has not been afraid to spend money or think outside the box when it comes to hiring coaches, but nothing has worked for this once proud franchise. He entrusted the team to former Carolina head coach Ron Rivera at the end of the season, and the two-time NFL Coach of the Year will be out to prove that Washington can be a winner. That might take time after the Redskins bottomed out in 2019 with a 3-13 record.

Dwayne Haskins might be the answer at quarterback for Washington. The Redskins haven’t had an elite quarterback since Sonny Jurgensen was in the nation’s capital 50 years ago, and this franchise has been starved for a potential game changer under center. Haskins took the reins from Case Keenum midway through last season, and he completed 58.6 percent of his passes for 1,365 yards with seven touchdowns and seven interceptions. Those are pedestrian overall numbers, but he showed real growth in his last two starts.

Haskins has a burgeoning star receiver in Terry McLaurin. McLaurin had an excellent rookie season, catching 58 passes for 919 yards and seven touchdowns. No other player had more than 400 receiving yards, so the next step for him will be to overcome the focused coverage that defenses will roll his way in 2020.

Adrian Peterson is back in the mix for at least one more year, but Washington is still holding out hope that Derrius Guice can emerge as the heir apparent. Guice has been injured for almost all of the last two seasons, yet he has been exciting in practice and on the field when healthy. He averaged 5.8 YPC in five games in 2019.

The addition of Chase Young should make this defense better. Young was the most dominant player in college football last year, and he was the highest-rated prospect on many boards. He played defensive end at Ohio State, but he is likely to play a hybrid role with Washington.

Washington used a first-round pick on a defensive lineman in each of the previous three seasons, so this front has the potential to be special. Jonathan Allen was the team’s best player on defense last year, and Da’Ron Payne is solid alongside him at defensive tackle. Ryan Kerrigan and Montez Sweat can be disruptors too, keeping offensive coordinators up at night with the way they can bring pressure.

The back seven is a major question mark though. Thomas Davis may or may not have something left in the tank at the age of 37, and the case of Reuben Foster is well documented. Ronald Darby will at least have something to prove with his new team, but this secondary could struggle outside of Landon Collins.
