JONATHAN NEWTON/THE WASHINGTON POST Mike Sellers and the Redskins’ offense turned the ball over six times Sunday against the rival Giants. Redskins focus on fuzzy future redskins from A1


Philadelphia atop theNFCEast— appeared substantially better in every aspect of the game. Thus, theRedskins’ annualDe-


cember lament:Howdoes a team that regularly tries to recapture generation-ago glory days, when it won three Super Bowls, deal with the fact that it must once againplace itshopes inseasons to come? “I don’t even know the fun it


would be like towin 12 games in a season,” said tight endChrisCool- ey,who is in his seventh yearwith Washington. “It’s so frustrating. I’vedone it allmy life. It’s a game I love. It’s something that I love, and I’ve just never been on the winning side of it. . . . It’s not fun to be part of a losing team.” Inthepastmonth, theRedskins


havebeenhumiliatedbyPhiladel- phia, 59-28, on national televi- sion, and thenagainby theGiants onSunday.Shanahanwashiredto restore respectability to a fran- chise that hasn’t won a division championship since 1999. That revival, though, still appears to be a season or two away. Sunday’s result means the Redskins must wintheir remainingfourgames to finishwithawinning record. And the theplayers realize that if there arewinning seasons tocome, they likely will involve a radically dif- ferent cast of characters. “The proof ’s in the pudding,” said cornerback DeAngeloHall, a


defensive co-captain. “It’sgoingto take a couple years to get the right kindofguys inhere,anduntil that happens, all Shanahan can do is work with what he’s got. . . . You can only work with the talents you’ve been blessed with. This is the teamhe’s beenblessedwith so far, sowe’ll see.” Sunday’s list of calamities in-


cluded six turnovers, 197 rushing yards by theGiants, anda blocked puntby theGiants’DevinThomas —whomtheRedskins cut inOcto- ber. But it beganwith another sym-


bol of the franchise’s ongoing problems—the decision to bench defensive linemanAlbertHaynes- worth because, Shanahan said, he was ill anddidnotpracticeFriday. By the end of this season, the Redskins will have paid Haynes- worth $36.5 million over his two years with the club. Yet when he addressed his situation after the game,Haynesworth professed in- difference. “It’s whatever,” he said. “If they


choose to sitme, they choose to sit me. This is their organization. I’m just a piece.” That raisedakey elementof the


final month: Who will stay and whowill leave? “Everybody understands that if


they don’t play hard, then they’re not part of the solution, they’re part of the problem,” Shanahan said. “And we’re going to take a look at the guys that play hard, andtheguys thatplayhardanddo


the things we ask themto do will be with us. The guys that don’t, won’t.” In his 14 years as the coach of


the Denver Broncos, Shanahan had two losing seasons.Now,he is trying to avoid one inWashington while simultaneously building a basefor thefuture.Hisoffensehas been a shambles, and his defense tackledsopoorlySundaythatSha- nahan called it “embarrassing.” “It’s not a perfect formula yet,”


Shanahan said. “It takes a while, doesn’t happen overnight. You’re judging all the positions, trying to put the pieces in place. “Butwe’llget there. It’sgoingto


take some time, but we will get there. I promise you that.” Redskins players tried to seize


on that theme, that the futurewill be better than the present. Mc- Nabb harkened back to his rookie seasonof 1999,whenthe inexperi- enced Eagles went 5-11 because players “just didn’t understand about winning.” The next year, a more comfortable teamwent 11-5, and McNabb endured one losing season in 11 yearswith theEagles. “Is it very similar? I believe so,”


McNabb said. “But, I mean, obvi- ouslyasaplayer, Idon’twant tobe back in that situation of waiting and seeing until next year.” That, though, is the Redskins’


situation,onceagain,as theyhead into a finalmonth of a season—a finalmonththat ismoreabout the years ahead than the one at hand. svrlugab@washpost.com
