In his rookie season, Robert Griffin III was one of five quarterbacks in NFL history to throw for at least 20 touchdowns and five or fewer interceptions in a season. In doing so, RGIII became the first rookie to ever accomplish such a feat and joined an elite group including Tom Brady (2010), Steve DeBerg (1990), Steve Bartkowski (1983) and Milt Plum (1960). Since then, RGIII has thrown 20 touchdowns and 18 interceptions over the last two seasons combined, going 5-17 in games that he started.

Alfred Morris rushed for 1,613 yards in 2012, a Redskins single-season franchise record and the 3rd most by a rookie in NFL history. Morris became the seventh different 1,000-yard rusher under former head coach Mike Shanahan, the most for any head coach in NFL history. Morris followed up his rookie season with a 1,275-yard season as a sophomore and a career-low 1,074 yards in 2014. Were Morris's stellar rookie numbers just a product of the Shanahan scheme?

The winningest coach in franchise history, Joe Gibbs led the Redskins to eight playoff appearances and victories in Super Bowls XVII, XXII, and XXVI. Each of Gibbs' Super Bowl wins came with a different quarterback, making him the only coach ever to win the title with three different QBs. The Redskins were led by Joe Theismann in Super Bowl XVII, Doug Williams in XXII and Mark Rypien in XXXVI. Two of those three starting quarterbacks were named Super Bowl MVP (Williams and Rypien), but none have been enshrined in the Hall of Fame.

Enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 2008, Darrell Green spent more seasons with the Redskins than any other player. In fact, his 20 seasons in Washington are tied with Jackie Slater (20 seasons with the Rams) for the most by a non-kicker with a single club. A seven-time Pro Bowl selection, Green also holds the longest streak with 19 straight seasons with an interception.

Before RGIII set the rookie passer rating record in 2012, Sammy Baugh led the league in passer rating six times, tied with Steve Young for the most ever. He also led the league in lowest interception percentage five times (most ever by a QB), in completions five times (2nd most behind Dan Marino) and in completion percentage seven times (2nd most behind Len Dawson). Perhaps most peculiar of all, Baugh holds the single-season punting average record (51.4 yards/punt in 1940).

During the 1980s, the Redskins had arguably the most memorable group of receivers in NFL history, 'The Fun Bunch,' which included Art Monk, Alvin Garrett, Virgil Seay, Don Warren, Charlie Brown and Rick Walker. In that 10-year span, they had a 1,000-yard receiver 10 times. This special group led the Redskins to a Super Bowl victory in 1983 and set the record for most points in a season (541). Since then, six other teams have topped their point total, but no group has had as many five-man high-fives in the endzone as 'The Fun Bunch.'

The Redskins-Giants rivalry has spanned 83 seasons and 166 games. In a Week 12 matchup in 1966, the Redskins destroyed the Giants 72-41, putting up the most points ever in a single game - a record that still stands 49 years later. That game's 113 combined points is also the most in NFL history. By comparison, in a five-game stretch from Week 11 to Week 15 of 2014, the Redskins scored a total of 60 points.

Daniel Snyder is infamous for overspending on stars who underachieve when they come to Washington. Few will forget when the Redskins signed defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth to a seven-year, $100 million contract in 2009 with $41 million guaranteed. Haynesworth only started 12 games over two seasons before being traded to the Patriots. Haynesworth is one of many missteps by Snyder: Donovan McNabb - five years, $78 million; Deion Sanders - seven years, $56 million; Jeremiah Trotter - seven years, $36 million; Mark Brunell - seven years, $43 million; Antwaan Randle El - seven years, $31 million. While Snyder shelled out millions from 2000-2010, the Redskins only brought home one playoff victory during that span.

The 1982 Redskins training camp at Dickinson College marked the beginning of one the greatest offensive line groups in NFL history, 'The Hogs.' The original group included Russ Grimm and Mark May at guard, Joe Jacoby and George Starke at tackle, center Jeff Bostic and Don Warren and Rick Walker at tight end. The Hogs paved the way for the greatest postseason rushing performance of all time. In 1982, John Riggins set the postseason record with 610 rushing yards en route to the franchise's first Super Bowl win (with Riggins being named MVP). After Starke retired, the Hogs added a new member in Raleigh McKenzie. The new group cleared the trenches in Super Bowl XXII when the Redskins destroyed the Broncos 42-10 and Timmy Smith set a Super Bowl record with 204 rush yards.
