Season in a Snap – Recap
January 15, 2021
By Noonefromtampa
The season is over and the Washington Football Team finished with a 7-9 record and won the NFC East division. I predicted a 6-10 record and figured they would finish at best 3rd in the division. Head coach Ron Rivera has reenergized the team and the fanbase. In 2021, the expectations will be higher and the schedule tougher.
