With the departure of Brandon Scherff, Shawn Lauvao and Paul Richardson, Redskins fans, media, and front office members are in full panic mode. The burgundy and gold have been down this dark path before. It was only a year ago that former Redskin Kirk Cousins was being introduced to new offensive linemen in the locker room hours before kickoff, marking the beginning of the end for the 2017 season.
The Redskins sit atop the NFC East at 5-3, something they didn’t have the luxury of this time last year. During the chaos of the past week, success is still in their hands, and the division title is theirs to defend.
