Where to Watch the Redskins-Seahawks Playoff Game in Arlington

The Washington Redskins face the Seattle Seahawks this weekend in one of four NFL wildcard games.

The Washington Redskins have worked since 2007 to get back to the NFL playoffs — but it's been a heck of a ride. Next stop: Sunday's wildcard game against the Seattle Seahawks. All this hailing to the Redskins should seem familiar. In 2007, the Redskins also made the NFL playoffs as a wildcard team.

There were signings and cuts, trades and draft picks, but a choice to pass showed a change from the philosophy of the past

In this politically divided town, there is one thing all can agree on - positive vibes are flowing throughout Redskins nation. Whether you look left or right, it’s impossible to miss, especially after years observing the forlorn looks that come from being disillusioned one (or a dozen) too many times. We’re not talking Super Bowl-winning confidence, but several steps-in the-right-direction belief.
