7-5-2 does not equal a winning season. i realize its just semantics but 7-5-2 is nowhere near 8-6. if a game is decided by inches, the redskins came up a mile short. Lombardi is a legend but, let's not pretend that he worked miracles on the redskins in his first year with them. 7-7 is mediocre and Lombardi didn't quite achieve that with the skins.
Washington Redskins Had 16 straight losing seasons before Lombardi got there and he broke that losing streak in 1970. Vince was the master of the art of motivation and that is all could do in his 1st year as head coach and he accomplished that knowing he was dying of Cancer. He was great at inspiring people to perform to their maximum.
