The Redskins compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) East division. The team plays its home games at FedExField in Maryland; its headquarters and training facility are at Redskins Park in Ashburn, Virginia. The Redskins have played more than one thousand games since their founding 87 years ago in 1932, and are one of only five franchises in the NFL to record over six hundred regular season and postseason wins, reaching that mark in 2015. The Redskins have won five NFL Championships (the latter three in Super Bowls), and have captured fourteen divisional titles and six conference championships. It was the first NFL franchise with an official marching band and the first with a fight song, Hail to the Redskins. The 1991 season started with a franchise-record 11 straight victories. Also during the season, "The Hogs", under the coaching of Redskins offensive line coach Joe Bugel, allowed a league low and franchise record nine sacks – the third lowest total in NFL history. The 1991 Redskins offense also dominated under the brilliant coaching of offensive minded head football coach Joe Gibbs scoring 485 points which was the most in the 1991 NFL season. The 1991 Redskins defense was dominant , giving up only 224 total points which was second best of any team in the NFL in 1991. The Redskins dominated the playoffs. The Redskins won Super Bowl XXVI by defeating the Buffalo Bills 37–24 with Mark Rypien winning the MVP award. The Redskins set a franchise record by sending eight players to the Pro Bowl. The 1991 Redskins are considered one of the best teams in NFL history. The Redskins success in 1992 culminated in a trip to the playoffs as a wild card team. Joe Gibbs retired after 12 years of coaching. Condition: Good.
