The Redskins Three-Headed Rushing Attack Will Decide Sunday’s Game
The 3-1 Redskins take on the 1-4 Eagles on Sunday at FedEx Field in a match up you would think would be clearly in the favor of the team with the better record. This is not the case. The Eagles are actually favored in the game, and a lot of “experts” still think they have [...]
TweetWeek 6 NFL Power Rankings: The Redskins Sitting Pretty
The Redskins didn’t play this week, in case you weren’t aware. Neither did the Dallas Cowboys. Both the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants suffered tough losses, so that means the ‘Skins are now alone atop the NFC East at 3-1. But where do they stand in this week’s national NFL Power Rankings? It’s not [...]
Tweet‘Skins News & Notes: Chris Cooley Wants To Fight Tony Romo And Brian Orakpo Receives An Award
Are you bummed out like me that the Redskins aren’t playing this week? The Bye week is always bittersweet. Yes, it gives the team a chance to rest, get healthy, gameplan, and all that jazz, but it does make Sundays a little less exciting. Don’t worry though, there’s still plenty of news! First, Brian Orakpo [...]
TweetRedskins Cornerback Phillip Buchanon Returns To The Field
The primary reason why the Redskins are sitting at 3-1 and in first place in the NFC East has been the play of their defense. New acquisitions Barry Cofield and Stephen Bowen have solidified the defensive line. Ryan Kerrigan is well on his way to earning Defensive Rookie of the Year honors, and OJ Atogwe [...]
TweetWhere Are The Redskins In The National Week 5 NFL Power Rankings?
Disclaimer: I realize power rankings are practically worthless, but it’s fun to debate them. The Redskins continue to be one of the more surprising teams in the NFL so far this season. Many “experts,” including our friend Mike Florio over at ProFootballTalk, didn’t think much of the ‘Skins before the season. He gave them a [...]
TweetRedskins Vs. Rams: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
Let me say this first: the Washington Redskins are 3-1 heading into their Bye week. If you would have told me that before the season started, I would have been ecstatic. They beat a division rival in the Giants. They took care of two young, seemingly up-and-coming teams in Arizona and St. Louis, and they [...]
TweetRedskins Dominate Rams Despite 17-10 Final Score
The Washington Redskins traveled to St. Louis today to take on the 0-3 Rams. The game started just as it should. The Redskins were dominating on both sides of the ball. They had the running game going, Rex Grossman was making all the right throws, and the defense was stellar. The first half ended with [...]
TweetIs It Time To Give Leonard Hankerson A Shot?
One thing that has become pretty evident through the first three games of the season is that the Redskins don’t really have a down-the-field, big-play wide receiver, at least not in the starting lineup. At the running back position, Tim Hightower proved in the preseason that he’s capable of taking it to the house. He [...]
TweetYour Weekly NFL Power Ranking Analysis (Week 4)
Okay boys and girls, it’s that time again. On Wednesdays, I like to take a look at the “NFL Power Rankings” from all the big-time national sports media websites to see how and why they have the Redskins where they do. This week, the guys over at Hogs Haven have a nice breakdown of eleven [...]
TweetRedskins Vs. Cowboys: The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
I was tempted to watch the game on mute last night because all of the Tony Romo love was becoming nauseating. ESPN’s coverage all week of Romo’s rib and “punctured lung” and all of the poor Cowboys injuries was enough to make me want to shoot myself in the foot. I was really hoping the [...]
