RG3, “Washington Redskins still can make playoffs”

Some fools have given up on the Washington Redskins‘ playoff chances, but Robert Griffin III still believes.

“I think the playoffs are a realistic goal for us,” Griffin said Wednesday, via WJFK-FM.

Things certainly look better than they did when the Redskins last played. The New York Giants have lost in a row to come back to the NFC East pack at 6-4. The Redskins are just two behind in the loss column with five division games left. They probably would have to go 4-1 in those games to have any chance to make the playoffs, but it’s not inconceivable that a 9-7 team could win the division. Griffin just needs his defense to make some stops.
