A free safety's purpose in football is to prevent big plays from happening. A free safety's first priority is to keep every receiver in front of him. The Washington Redskins' free safety has failed to perform his basic duties game after game in the 2009 season. Laron Landry was burned for two touchdowns on Sunday, proving he is ill-fitted for the free safety position. Time and time again, Laron Landry has looked for ...

Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys was an excellent effort by the Washington Redskins defense. Unfortunately, it was wasted by the Redskins' offense inability to score points. After making Tony Romo look lessùthanùaverage (15-27, 158, 1 TD, 1 INT), the Redskins defense looked dominant against a supposedly explosive Dallas offense. And while Jason Campbell put up good numbers (24-37, 256, 1 INT), the offense couldn't muster the points necessary to win. Dallas ...

Another week, another display of total dysfunction on the part of the Redskins. But it's no longer surprising; it has become expected. á After being completely inept in the first half, the offense showed some signs of life against the Falcons in the second half. But it was too little, too late. By then, the defense was giving up yardage in bunches. á The offensive line was a Swiss cheese sieve, and it is ...

á We have all heard the rumors about Joe Gibbs being considered for a GM position with the Redskins. á Joe Gibbs? Joe was a great coach, but he is not general management material. After all, he was the one who pushed so hard to draft Jason Campbell. á Yes, Joe Gibbs won three Super Bowls as coach. But he wasn't the man who picked the players on those Super Bowl winning teams. á No, that man ...

Pathetic. That's the best adjective to describe the current state of the Washington Redskins. Afteráallowing another winless team to emerge victorious, there is only one conclusion to be drawn about the Redskins; they are one of the worst teams in the NFL. The only teams that are worse are the Cleveland Browns and the Oakland Raiders. No matter what changes happen in D.C. this year, the Redskins are destined for rock bottom in ...

The latest news out of DC is the Redskins' hiring of Sherman Lewis. According to Vinnie Cerrato, he is being brought in as an "offensive consultant." An offensive consultant? Isn't it Jim Zorn's main job to control the offense? This latest hiring indicates that Cerrato and Snyder no longer have confidence in Zorn's ability to turn this offense around by his self. If they no longer believe he can do his job ...

The first quarter of the NFL season has passed. What have we learned about the Washington Redskins so far? Some assessments after four games: The offense, in general, appears to have made very little, if any, progress from last year's unit. á The offensive line play is shaky, allowing a fair amount of pressure, and less than adequate in terms of run blocking. á Like last year, Santana Moss is the only receiver that can ...

By now, everybody has heard about "the call" during the Ravens-Patriots game. Ravens linebacker Suggs barely brushed Tom Brady's leg, and he was called for a personal foul for a low hit on the quarterback. The penalty highlighted a larger problem with some NFL referees. Star players get preferential treatment. On that particular play, Tom Brady lobbied for the penalty by immediately pointing to the nearest referee, as if he were demanding ...

The train wreck that is the Washington Redskins continues. For the third consecutive week, the Redskins made one of the worst teams in the league look like Super Bowl contenders. So, what does that make the Redskins? The Redskins are one of the worst teams in the NFL. Against the Bucs, Jason Campbell looked like a rookie playing in his first game, theápass protectionáwas less effective than Swiss cheese,áand the defense was once ...

It's time to stop the bleeding. Jim Zorn needs to be fired. Proving once again that he is in over his head, Jim Zorn's Redskins were completely unprepared to play the Detroit Lions. In all phases of the game, offense, defense, and special teams, the Redskins were dominated by a team that had not won a game in their last 19 tries. So, why wait any longer on Zorn? The Redskins are becoming ...
