Washington Redskins

Starting Sunday for the next 32 days - leading into the start of Redskins training camp July 30, I'll preview one NFL team, from the worst to the best.

The Washington Redskins announced a series of new policies Monday relating to parking and traffic, including rules that will restrict many tailgaters to the back of lots at FedEx Field.

By Aaron Morrissey Photo by brianmka Are you a Redskins suite holder? (Hah, OK, you're more than likely not, but bear with us here.) Then you might have been surprised when you got a letter in the mail from the team letting you know that tailgating will only be allowed in the last few rows of each parking lot at Fed...

By Ben Folsom(noreply@blogger.com) The Redskins were the second team to announce a partnership with a state lottery agency, behind the New England Patriots by a day which I am sure infuriated Dan Snyder, and in making the announcement the team played the event as it would an impact player signing or new coaching hire, with Su...

By Ben Folsom(noreply@blogger.com) As I was cleaning up some links from last month I came across an interesting tidbit, it would seem Major League Soccer's DC United is going to play a friendly with Real Madrid in August, and the game will not be at RFK Stadium, former home of the Redskins and current home to DC United. Rather, th...

By noreply@blogger.com (Ben Folsom) Please join me in wishing a hearty happy birthday to Redskins receiver Santana Moss, Santana turns 30 today, the big three oh. Santana Moss currently holds the Redskins single season receiving yards record with 1483 yards in 2005. It is his number I wear on gameday.

by Joe Versage (Member) If I had the chance to conduct a feature interview with any player on the Washington Redskins, I would choose starting quarterback Jason Campbell. To prepare for it, I would research his college days at Auburn, ...

By Ben Folsom(noreply@blogger.com) Things seemed still to be on track performance wise in 2005 as the defense turned in another top ten finish and the Redskins went to the playoffs.  Gregg's contract and salary went to his head.  The team got rid of linebacker LaVar Arrington, cornerback Walt Harris and safety Ryan Clark.  Goi...

 CA My father was a Washington Redskins fan when I really started to take notice of the NFL and my natural choice for my own team was the rivals of the 'skins - the love 'em or hate 'em Cowboys. Watching my father scream at the tv, and taunt my eventual ...

 CA Redskins. I'd never really thought about what that word meant. It is ugly, yes it is, when you think about it. A little history then: the Redskins were once the Boston Braves, that is until majority owner George Preston Marshall moved them to good old ...

By Jason LaCanfora The Washington Redskins are counting on second-year receivers Devin Thomas, Malcolm Kelly and Fred Davis to take a major step forward and fill key roles for the team this year after their disappointing rookie seasons.

By noreply@blogger.com (Ben Folsom) 12. Edwin Williams, center, University of Maryland | bio page | draft profile Height: six feet two inches Weight: 308 pounds Welcome all of you to the Washington Redskins, good luck and I look forward to marking your progress for Redskins fans world wide.

By Ben Folsom(noreply@blogger.com) Moving through the draft it becomes apparent that either I know nothing about the Redskins needs or the decision makers know nothing and that is not to disparage the Redskins sixth round draft pick linebacker Robert Henson from Texas Christian University. There is no question the Redski...

No other player is consistently on the field returning punts.

By Jason La Canfora Texas defensive lineman Brian Orakpo is considered by some the best defensive player in the draft, and the Washington Redskins have their eyes on him.

By TheBigLead Before we settle in for another night of eggnog and pondering Pro Bowl snubs, two heartwarming holiday stories from the NFL. First, London Fletcher of the Washington Redskins.

By Matt Cordon (kh) Adrian Hasenmayer of Fox Sports also has the Cowboys way below the Redskins, but Dallas improved from #15 to #11 in his list. Vic Carucci only lists the top 12 teams, and Dallas has not been on his list. The Cowboys are #9 there this week. 7. The Landry Hat: Cowboys are #8

Pass protection was the hot topic on Redskins coach Jim Zorn's mind on Monday in the wake of Washington's 14-10 loss to Dallas on Sunday night. "That's where teams fall, when they get the quarterback hit," said Zorn, a longtime quarterback and quarterbacks coach. "The frustrating thing is...

By Matt Sussman What's Wrong With The Dallas Cowboys?" So We're All In Agreement, The Cowboys Are Super Bowl Champions, Right?" Tony Romo: Is He Having Good Intercourse On His Bye Week?"

By Matt Cordon (kh) According to the six power rankings summarized below, the Cowboys are ranked #16 on average.  Thus, another showing of mediocrity. 1. Jeremy Green, ESPN Podcast: Cowboys are #17 The Cowboys moved up a spot in Jeremy Green’s Green Elevator this week. 2. ESPN NFL Writers: Cowboys are #15 Dallas...

By ChrisPokorny After Sunday's loss to the Washington Redskins, clearly there is only one man to blame: Phil Dawson. Only kidding, of course, as it was clearly the underachieving offense that cost us yet another football game. We held one of the NFC's best teams, Washington, to just 14 points. Result? Loss.

By The Director With a big loss in Washington, the PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, who are weathering with Westbrook's lastet injury, welcome the sight of the San Francisco 49ers, who in getting outlasted by the Patriots find themselves at Home versus an Eagles team that last faced off with Nolan in 2006; Nolan 0-...

By Pete Treperinas Studs Duds Washington Redskins. Personally, I didn't think much of Washington this year, but after beating the Cowboys in Dallas, the Redskins have made the competition in the NFC East that much harder. Jason Campbell looked good this week, and Jim Zorn has Washington on the right track.

By Craig Garrison Sr The statistics don't show it at first glance. The score doesn't indicate just how much the Washington Redskins' defense controlled the Dallas Cowboys. But make no mistake about it, the Redskins' defense shut down the "best offense in the NFL", that of the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

By Greg Trippiedi Just a month before the Redskins opened their training camp, I wrote this piece on a roster matchup between the Cowboys and Redskins.  The game between the teams is tomorrow.  I’d like to review a few points I made in June as we talk Redskins-Cowboys once more.

By Mike Craig My Pick: Broncos San Francisco 49ers (2-1) @ New Orleans Saints (1-2) at 1:00 PM EST. This might show to be a really good game. Green Bay Packers (2-1) @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-1) at 1:00 PM EST. This I think will be a candidate for Game of the Week. My Pick: Packers My Pick: Cowboys My Pick: Eagles

By Anthony Brown Brian Mitchell was, along with Darrell Green, one of the few bright spots on the Redskins during the Norv Turner era in the ‘nineties. Clinton Portis will likely leave the Redskins with the franchise all-time rushing record. About Mitchell

By Greg Trippiedi The truth is, neither the Redskins, nor the Saints are a good bet to make the playoffs in 2008.  With a win in Washington, the Saints would be 2-0, and in pretty good position to make a run at the NFC South title, but they would have to contend with the reigning champ Buccaneers, who held them to 2...

By Greg Trippiedi Back to the original subject of this discussion:  Would the Redskins have been better served to take Ends instead of receivers at picks 34 and 51?  If the Redskins’ draft board at DE was to mimic the actual order in which the players were picked, then the “best available” players at 34 and 51...

By TexSkins Now, on to your Washington Redskins, who are 14th... one behind the Eagles in May. As Matt Mosley, one of many Dallas Cowsheep transplanted in Bristol even though he still lives in Dallas who wrote the blurbs for the NFC East puts it: Too many questions: a new coach, young QB and a pair of rookie WR...

By Greg Trippiedi The Cowboys, Eagles, and New York Giants added players at impact positions on the first day.  Trevor Laws is an Eagle.  Mike Jenkins is a Cowboy. Kenny Phillips is a Giant.  Clearly, defenses across the division improved, and I think the Redskins will live to regret not keeping up with this tre...

By Brian Mulholland The Redskins natural #2, the 51st overall was only a few picks away.  Reeling from the shock of Davis, I commented to a friend that I felt it might be a good idea to take Calais Campbell with the next pick to salvage the 2nd round.  Sure enough, right before Washington went, Arizona took Campbel...

By Brian Mulholland WRs also often do not contribute as immediately as some other positions.  While not as slow-developing as quarterbacks, many struggle for a year or two before finding their groove.  In fantasy football circles the rule of thumb is the third year WR.  The team will need a player with sufficie...

By Skin Patrol Speaking of Head Coach Zorn, he apparently owes me and my ilk a huge debt of thanks.

By Greg Trippiedi What if the Redskins had used both of the picks for Lloyd on interior offensive linemen?
