Revitalized Running Game Can Transform Washington Redskins' Season

Don't celebrate the 40-burger, Washington Redskins fans. Don't even big up your team equaling its entire win total from 2014. Instead, rejoice about how the Burgundy and Gold found the formula that can transform their season and keep them alive in the NFC playoff race.

It turns out the Redskins can still run the ball effectively. They just forgot how for six games. But the return of the running game keyed Week 10's 47-14 beatdown of the New Orleans Saints. It also showed how prolific the team's Kirk Cousins-led offense can be.

Mike Shanahan, we should have believed you.
