<P> All of the Redskins ' league titles were attained during two 10 - year spans . From 1936 to 1945 , the Redskins went to the NFL Championship six times , winning two of them . The second period lasted between 1982 and 1991 where the Redskins appeared in the postseason seven times , captured four Conference titles , and won three Super Bowls out of four appearances . The Redskins have also experienced failure in their history . The most notable period of general failure was from 1946 to 1970 , during which the Redskins posted only four winning seasons and did not have a single postseason appearance . During this period , the Redskins went without a single winning season during the years 1956 -- 1968 . In 1961 , the franchise posted their worst regular season record with a 1 -- 12 -- 1 showing .
