Not just because I’m not that great (batting around .500) this season, but it’s hard to tell which Redskins team might show up. The Eagles, with Mike Vick at the helm, have been pretty solid but are capable of laying their own eggs (a blowout in Jacksonville, the loss at home to Washington when Vick got hurt). Tempting to take... TLFpublishing@gmail.com (Todd L.

But I’ll start with him just to get him out of the way (as the Redskins should soon). Walk around Redskins Park, or click around the web, and you’ll find countless diatribes about how selfish and unprofessional he is. Plenty of sentiment about how for the money he’s made, he should do anything the coaches ask and play wherever they put him on the... TLFpublishing@gmail.com (Todd L.

Depends who you ask. Some fans (and players) place great weight and importance on them. (Albert Haynesworth places great weight IN his 92. Well, he will if/when he shows up to camp.) The NFL Shop recently announced that rookie Tim Tebow had the top-selling jersey so far (ironically the same Broncos 15 worn by jettisoned WR Brandon Marshall). Donovan McNabb’s new Washington...

Thanks to everyone at the 700level.com and Philaphans.com message boards for participating. Here’s their good news and bad news about McNabb: “Good news: you finally have a QB who...

Mel’s wrong. He seems to base his grade on the fact that he had Russell Okung rated slightly higher than Trent Williams. He doesn’t elaborate on the fact that they didn’t do anything shortsighted and foolish in a panic move to trade back into the 2nd or 3rd rounds, nor does he mention that they used that 2nd-rounder on Pro Bowl QB Donovan McNabb.

I was pretty surprised by the acquisition, having never considered Washington to be a destination that made sense for McNabb (or the Redskins). But as I thought about it, the combination of McNabb and Mike Shanahan does make... TLFpublishing@gmail.com (Todd L.

I'm half Irish, quarter Dutch, and quarter Cherokee. My great grandmother was a full bloodied Cherokee indian, and married my grandfather in the early 1900's.

We’ve all been convinced that Jay Cutler is a superstar franchise quarterback. He’s supposedly right up there in the conversation with the up-and-coming elite QB’s knocking on that door right outside the offices of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. And we’ve also been told that Washington’s Jason Campbell is a mediocre nobody on the verge of “bust” status. This was... TLFpublishing@gmail.com (Todd L.

From the looks of things so far this preseason, the Redskins defense is destined to be the top in the league. The offense faltered in the Baltimore opener but showed some life against the Steelers in the second preseason game. The bottom line is that the... cemorgan3@yahoo.com (Misterwookas) Washington Redskins 2009-08-26T09:17:35-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/14313 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/14313 After watching the Saturday night preseason game between the Washington Redskins and the Pittsburgh Steelers I came away with one conclusion: Brian Orakpo will be the future of the Redskins. The Redskins have always had good defenses and with current defensive coordinator Greg Blache in charge, in 2009 wants to improve on its fourth best defense in the league ranking.

Anticipation builds and fans get their hopes up. But more times than not, they end up disappointed. Tuesday’s deadline was similar in an uneventful sort of way. Rumors were flying in places like Buffalo, Kansas City, Oakland, Philadelphia and New York, but only a couple of players... dcjoev@yahoo.com (Joe Versage) Washington Redskins 2008-10-17T05:26:18-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/12899 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/12899 Remember the evening of Sept. 4? After a dreadful showing in their season opener against the New York Giants, the Washington Redskins were called out by a host of critics and armchair quarterbacks. It seemed that everyone had something bad to say about a team that appeared dazed and confused in a 16-7 loss to the defending Super Bowl champions. Some blamed rookie head coach Jim Zorn and a West... dcjoev@yahoo.com (Joe Versage) Washington Redskins 2008-10-09T05:42:24-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/12628 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/redskins/12628 If Redskins fans existed in the imaginary world of fantasy football, they probably would be scurrying to the waiver wire this week to scoop up New England quarterback Matt Cassell. Of course, in the real world of the National Football League, the Patriots had to turn to Cassell after losing superhero Tom Brady for the remainder of the season with a catastrophic knee injury.
