HogWire: Entering the Lions Den

Found September 25, 2009 on The Hogs:
TEAMS: Washington Redskins,  Detroit Lions

The (1-1) Washington Redskins travel to Ford Field to face the (0-2) Detroit Lions on Sunday; kickoff is at 1 p.m. The Detroit Lions looked like they would get into the win column last week with a 10-0 lead midway through the second quarter. Quarterback Matthew Stafford threw his first NFL touchdown pass and the running game was productive. The Lions offense, leading 10-7 at halftime, came out in the third quarter and ran five plays, including two sacks and a fumble. Detroit went on to give up 2...

Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz would desperately love for his team to end its 19-game losing skid against the Washington Redskins on Sunday.But he can't sacrifice that short-term desire for the long-term goal of building the Lions into a...

Why Not Go to Kelly?

Via Redskins Insider  |  September 24, 2009
I expected wideout Malcom Kelly to be much more involved in the Redskins' red zone offense than he has been through the first two games. In the 9-7 victory over the St. Louis Rams, the Redskins were inside the Rams' 11-yard line three times, but Kelly wasn't a big part of the game plan at that stage of those possessions. Washington failed to produce a touchdown and has scored only...

Rhino Relief: Rinehart to Start For Redskins Against Detroit, and What It Means

Via Bleacher Report  |  September 26, 2009
I've been repeating it like a chorus since the offseason ended: The Redskins are very close to being a regularly competitive team. They have pretty decent talent and depth at most positions. The one glaring hole is depth in the O-line. With a starting squad that's 80 percent injury-prone or old, the lack of depth is a big problem. The first stumble occurred last weekend when...

Redskins Prepare to Keep Lions Tame in Week Three Gut Check

Via Bleacher Report  |  September 24, 2009
The Redskins escaped their home opener against the St. Louis Rams with a 1-1 record and a bevy of questions facing their offense, particularly their red zone performance. Over the course of the game against the Rams, the Redskins moved the ball efficiently between the 20s, recording drives of 83, 64, 74 and 76 yards. But despite their ability to move the ball into scoring position...

The Lions-Redskins game will be blacked out in Detroit because the team has not sold enough tickets to the game. Not a shock, really. The Lions are awful and they can't boast of an exciting or interesting team coming to town, it's just he Redskins, owner of the most boring offense in football year after year. Read it.
