Despite the Redskins' problems in the red zone Sunday against the St. Louis Rams, quarterback Jason Campbell felt the offense showed some signs of improvement in the 9-7 victory. "We definitely did some good things out there," Campbell said. "We put together some long drives, we moved the ball, and we can build on that. But, yeah, we've got to put the ball...

Here's a partial schedule of how postgame breaks down: the team gets a mandated cooling-off period before the media is allowed in. The first part of that cooling-off period is given over to the head coach's postgame speech, which occurs behind closed doors; then, while the team starts showering, changing, and so on, the coach heads down the hall to hold his press conference...

WINNERS:

Chris Cooley. Seven catches for 83 yards — a [...]

I’m confused. I admit it. Jason Campbell played well today. The Redskins outgained the Rams by more than 100 yards. They had 7 more first downs than the Rams, and possessed the ball for almost 10 more minutes. They ran 20 more plays than the Rams. The penalties and turnovers were almost even. I [...]

Remember last year's team captains photo? The one where Cornelius Griffin said his teammates told the six captains "You look gangster'? Well, today was scheduled to be the updated version, and -- largely thanks to Jason Campbell's choice of ensembles -- things did not go exactly as planned.
"You know, there's nothing gangster about what Jason's got...

With the Rams threatening to take the lead early in the fourth quarter -- they had a first down on the Redskins' 15 -- Washington came up with the biggest defensive play of the game. On third and four from the Washington 9, Marc Bulger found receiver Donnie Avery on the right side. Avery made a move at the 5 in an attempt to get more yardage, but Redskins safety Chris Horton...

The Rams are taking baby steps this season as they scored a TD yesterday. Marc Bulger had another sub par game completing 15 of 28 passes for 125 yards with 1 TD pass. The Rams need to find a way to get the ball to Steven Jackson as much as possible as he is by [...]

It was an eyesore more than a win, but a victory nonetheless for the Washington Redskins, who defeated the St. Louis Rams 9-7 despite not scoring a touchdown. The Redskins went 0-for-4 in the red zone and lost the ball on downs with 1:58 remaining. Starting at his own 4, St. Louis quarterback Marc Bulger threw four incompletions and the Redskins ran out the final 92 seconds. Shaun...

The Panthers just signed new No. 2 quarterback A.J. Feeley, so it'll be awhile before he's considered to replace Jake Delhomme. But here are four other backups who should start warming up their arms:
Kyle Boller, Rams. Marc Bulger wasn't successful shaking off the effects of his broken pinkie in a 28-0 loss at Seattle—and he's also coming off two bad seasons...
