WTF dudeTakeaway drill: Winning can look like losing, especially when paired with a critical season ending injury, red zone futility and weak playcalling; Steve Spagnuolo can still gameplan against Washington; Redskins fans are flat out of patience.=====Monday walkthrough: The Washington Redskins coin a new term, winning futile as they hold off the St. Louis Rams 9-7 to move to 1-1. The offense shows how easily it can move between the twenties, then stalls get this, four times in the St. Louis red zone, producing only three field goals, something is definitely up with Washington's playcalling. To add injury to insult right guard Randy Thomas was lost for the season with a triceps injury for the second time in three seasons.The Redskins took the ball to start the first quarter, Jason Campbell's first pass of the Redskins first possession was a good looking throw to Malcolm Kelly, it was broken up by cornerback Jonathan Wade, nothing doing on this drive and the Redskins are...

Campbell Sees Some Encouraging Signs

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...

Jason Campbell's Teammates Call Him A "Tough Guy"

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...

Montgomery, Campbell will practice

Quarterback Jason Campbell, who sprained an ankle last Sunday at St. Louis, and defensive tackle Anthony Montgomery, who was inactive against the Rams with an ailing knee, will both work today.

Skins-Rams Winners & Losers

WINNERS: Jason Campbell.  23-for-35 for 242 yards. He’s now completed nearly 70% of his passes, a number that would be higher had Devin Thomas and Mike Sellers both not dropped touchdown passes yesterday. JC certainly wasn’t perfect, but he also wasn’t the reason this team couldn’t score touchdowns. Chris Cooley. Seven catches for 83 yards — a [...]

2009 Captain's Photo, Take 2

When last we visited our intrepid team captains, they had assembled for their group photo only to find that Jason Campbell was wearing a suit that was several shades too light. Today, they tried again. Much better. Success! And no one even had anything sarcastic to say afterward, even when I asked."Jason got enough of it last time," Mike Sellers said.Then he stopped to...

Redskins 9 – Rams 7

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 [...]

2009 Captain's Photo, Take One

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...

Redskins Hold on for First Win

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...

Jim Zorn Is Out of His League As Redskins' Head Coach

The Redskins evened their record at 1-1 with their underwhelming defeat of the visiting St. Louis Rams. A win is a win in the NFL, but a 7-9 win over the worst team in the NFL raises questions for the team. It is difficult to place the blame on any one player or coach so early in the year because there are plenty of games left to play. That being said, if Jim Zorn doesn't step...

What's wrong with Santana Moss?

I've been accused of being too much of a homer. Of being blinded by burgundy, but even in my blindness I see something wrong with the redskins offense that is somewhat disconcerting. No, It's not Jason Campbell. It isn't the line and It isn't the coach. It's Santana Moss. No, he has not lost a...

Redskins get first win the hard way

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...
