Lots of Roster Changes
Posted on 9 Nov 2011 by Mercedes Green.
Shanahan is making changes but this being week 10 I’m not sure how much or little it will help. The Redskins have released WR Donte Stallworth, DE Darrion Scott, TE Dominique Byrd, CB Brandyn Thompson and RB Tristan Davis (practice squad). New signings to the Redskins: DL Kentwan Balmer (49ers, Panthers), WR David Anderson (Texans) and CB Domonique Johnson. The Patriots have released Albert...

Redskins Giants Week 1 Preview
Posted on 9 Sep 2011 by Mercedes Green.
The Redskins play the Giants on Sunday, September 11th for their home opener. It will be a somber day for both teams as it’s the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks with 1 team from New York, where the Twin Towers fell, and the other just miles away from where the Pentagon was attacked. There will be many tributes including former US Secretary of State Colin Powell to serve as the Redski...

Week 1 Matchup
Posted on 9 Sep 2011 by David Reid.
Monday night can’t come soon enough. The Patriots are looking to continue their regular season dominance with a win against the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football. The Patriots are featured as a national coverage game being the first of two on Monday night. They face a Dolphins team that went 7-9 last season going 0-2 against the Patriots. Not only did the Patriots win both games, but th...

Babin on Board
Posted on 28 Jul 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
The Philadelphia Eagles have reached agreement on a five-year contract with Pro Bowl defensive end Jason Babin, who had a breakout season with Tennessee last year and who two years ago was allowed to leave Philadelphia for free agency. Babin played for the Eagles in 2009 then signed with the Titans in free agency and had a career-best 12.5 sacks playing under defensive line coach Jim Washburn. ...

Do you hear the cheers from the Skins Fans? Haynesworth is outta here!
Posted on 28 Jul 2011 by Mercedes Green.
First McNabb, now Haynesworth. Both players haven't given much to the Redskins yet their pocketbooks and contracts were steep! The Redskins have traded Albert “Don't wanna be a Nose Tackle” Haynesworth to the New England Patriots for a 5th round pick in 2013. That's it. Shanahan didn't just want to release Haynesworth and allow him to go to the Eagles, so at least he's some...

Floodgates Almost Open
Posted on 21 Jul 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
When the NFL lockout ends as a result of a new Collective Bargaining Agreement, the focus will turn from the courtroom and the board room to the War Room. This could take hours or days but by the end of next week, the NFL could be back in business. This means that 5 months of normal offseason activity will be compressed into about 2-1/2 weeks including re-signing of restricted free agents, trai...

Washburn Brings Defensive Hope
Posted on 21 Jan 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
Still no word on Defensive Coordinator but Jim Washburn is already affecting the Eagles defensive upgrade. One reason the Eagles fired defensive line coach Rory Segrest was the development Jason Babin made in Tennessee after leaving Philadelphia. One of the bonuses of hiring Jim Washburn may be getting Babin back – and luring Albert Haynesworth!!! Jason Babin, who had 2 1/2 sacks in 200...

Battle of the NFC East Losers
Posted on 17 Dec 2010 by Mercedes Green.
The Washington Redskins travel to Dallas to play the Cowboys on Sunday. Although neither team can make the playoffs, this will be a grudge match for sure as the Cowboys will want revenge from losing to the Redskins in week 1. Both teams are coming off disappointing close game losses. This is rivalry NFL football at its best, so this will be viewed and played like a Super bowl for both these...

Skins Botch Extra Point and Lose 16-17 to Bucs
Posted on 13 Dec 2010 by Mercedes Green.
What an incredibly disappointing loss yesterday’s game was. After such an incredible start with the defence and running game, and the most dramatic final few seconds I’ve encountered so far this season (I really don’t know how my heart can keep handling these close games), the Redskins fall to the Bucs by a single missed extra point. IF, big IF, the Redskins had actually made even 1 o...

Redskins Suspend Haynesworth Without Pay
Posted on 7 Dec 2010 by Mercedes Green.
The Washington Redskins have suspended Albert Haynesworth without pay for the next 4 games. The following is the official statement from head coach Mike Shanahan: “Despite the club’s numerous attempts to persuade Albert Haynesworth to abide by the terms of his contract, he has repeatedly refused to cooperate with our coaching staff in a variety of ways over an extended period of time. Amo...

Redskins To Recuperate From Eagles Loss?
Posted on 19 Nov 2010 by Mercedes Green.
The Redskins are trying to forget last week’s horrendous loss to the Eagles and start over against the Titans this Sunday at 1PM. Lucky for them the buzz about this week’s game is no longer about “that game” but is focusing on Albert Haynesworth’s return to Tennessee to play against his home team. Haynesworth has been bounced back and forth many times this year about possible trad...

Redskins Lions Preview
Posted on 29 Oct 2010 by Mercedes Green.
After the Redskins ended the Lions’ losing streak last year, it’s time to put that stat to bed. The Redskins offense is looking to redeem itself after a messy showing last week against the Bears and their D is looking to keep their momentum up. By looking at numbers alone, the Redskins are rated lower than the Lions, but the Skins are #6 in the NFC at 4-3 and the Lions at #14 just a...
