Yesterday's Redskins-Cowboys game was the first since Week One that I anticipated. And for three-and-a-half periods, it appeared my excitement may have been validated. Then Shaun Suisham happened. Suisham came into the game perfect on all 12 of his field goal attempts. He left the game having missed two and a big reason why the 'Skins found themselves on the losing end of a 7-6 score to the Cowboys. ...

Deangelo Hall was the only Washington Redskins player interested in fireworks, and they weren't even the right kind. Hall got into it with his former team on their own sideline, prompting Atlanta Falcons coach Mike Smith to exchange words with Hall. Smith also appeared to physically pull Hall out of the scrum. Hall accused Smith of "putting his hands on me," and, "cussing me out" following the game. It ...

We have made it through the first quarter of the NFL regular season, and there's quite a bit to analyze when it comes to the Washington Redskins.

With a veritable firestorm surrounding head coach Jim Zorn following the Redskins 19-14 loss to the Lions, it's time for him to take a long, hard look at his formula because something is obviously not clicking. The offense has stalled at all the wrong times while the defense isn't even close to being as good as advertised. Special teams? Well at least Hunter Smith is punting. The coaching staff hasn't been very ...

Not much changed for the Redskins during the offseason. Sure, on paper maybe, but not on the playing field.Play calling was a nightmare. Offensively, Jim Zorn pushed the panic button after a pair of first half gaffes by Jason Campbell. Apparently no one told him you have to be aggressive when trailing.Zorn seemed content to play it safe and run the ball on first and second downs repeatedly. Of course, ...

Following an uninspiring performance from last year's No. 4 defense in a 23-17 loss to the New York Giants, it's time for Greg Blache to take a long, hard look at his scheme. Soft coverage on third downs kept the defense on the field while the blitz schemes were anything but imaginative. Missed tackles plagued the defense along with an average performance in the trenches. Say what you will about the offense ...
