Redskins Fill Holes Left By Cooley, Hightower, Lichtensteiger
Terrell Owens isn’t the only currently-out-of-work player auditioning for an NFL roster spot. Dozens of players have been working out for dozens of teams throughout the season, and this week has been no different. Up until this point, however, the Redskins didn’t have any glaring holes to fill. Times have changed. Now that Tim Hightower, [...]
TweetA List Of Changes The Redskins Will Make And A List Of Ones They Should Make
This team is quickly approaching the moment of truth. After a rather quick start at 3-1, they have fallen to 3-3 and are showing early signs of a full-fledged collapse. Before the season started, many experts thought the Redskins were a 5-11 or 6-10 team at best, which I didn’t and still don’t think is [...]
TweetRedskins Vs. Panthers: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
There weren’t a whole lot of good takeaways from yesterday’s game against the Panthers, just as there haven’t been for the last couple of weeks. The Redskins are now 3-3 and in third place in the NFC East. Okay! Yesterday’s GBUs: The Good: – John Beck, despite a slow start and some obvious rust, actually [...]
TweetThe Redskins Get Bullied In Carolina, Fall 33-20
Well, it certainly felt like a trap game heading into Sunday;s matchup against the Panthers and the “trap gods” didn’t disappoint. The Redskins came into Carolina at 3-2 but were in the middle of a quarterback controversy and were playing some below-average football. The Panthers, on the other hand, had been playing a lot better [...]
TweetThe Redskins Better Hope A Certain Streak Comes To An End On Sunday
You would think the Redskins would be optimistic about facing a team who is ranked near the bottom in almost every offensive and defensive statistical category, especially one that is lead by a rookie quarterback. Unfortunately, this is the exact scenario that has given the Redskins fits for the past several years. The Redskins have [...]
TweetRedskins Say “What The Heck?” And Go With Beck
In a move that shouldn’t surprise a ton of people, ESPN is reporting that coach Mike Shanahan told the team today that John Beck will start on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Rex Grossman, who had an awful game against the Philadelphia Eagles last week, once again finds himself on the bench. I wrote an [...]
TweetComparing John Beck And Rex Grossman
I think we all had a sneaking suspension that we would be having this conversation. Maybe not as soon as the sixth game of the season, but eventually. Rex Grossman started the season hot with a 300 yard, two touchdown performance against the New York Giants, and he lead a come-from-behind charge against the Arizona [...]
TweetRedskins Vs. Eagles: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
Sunday’s game against the Eagles was a chance for the Redskins to take a firm hold on the NFC East. They would have been 4-1 with two divisional wins, and Philadelphia would have dropped to 1-5, largely making them a non-factor for the rest of the season. So much for that plan. Now the Redskins [...]
TweetTrapped: The Washington Redskins Fall To The Philadelphia Eagles
Every possible worst case scenario came true yesterday during the 20-13 loss to the Eagles. There were injuries, turnovers, costly penalties, and even a benching heard round-the-world. The Redskins came in with an obvious gameplan: Run the ball, play good defense, and don’t make mistakes. Well, they didn’t run the ball effectively at all. The [...]
TweetChris Cooley And The Redskins Still Not Fully Healthy Following The Bye Week
One of the great things about the NFL Bye Week is it gives teams and players an extra week to get healthy. Unfortunately for the Redskins, they still have a few guys who are banged up. Chris Cooley, Anthony Armstrong, Tim Hightower, and Phillip Buchanon are all listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the [...]
