Redskins' McIntosh thriving in the background

Found September 24, 2009 on Washington Times:
PLAYERS: Rocky McIntosh
TEAMS: Washington Redskins,  Detroit Lions

Washington_redskins_2007_62ea
Rocky McIntosh always has been the other linebacker for the Washington Redskins. McIntosh played the past two seasons, his first ones as a starter, with a former Pro Bowl pick in Marcus Washington and the NFL's top tackler of the past decade in London Fletcher. Washington departed after last season, only to be replaced by a flashy first-round draft choice, Brian Orakpo. McIntosh, naturally, remained an afterthought. Asked on Wednesday about the Redskins defense he'll face on Sunday, Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford reeled off the names of five Redskins players and praised their cornerbacks. McIntosh went unmentioned even though ... Email </a

Rinehart, Montgomery to Compete for Line Spot

Via Redskins Insider  |  September 23, 2009
Apparently, Coach Jim Zorn needs to see more from Chad Rinehart. Although many in the organization expected Rinehart to be named the starter to replace injured right guard Randy Thomas, Rinehart will compete this week with guard-center Will Montgomery, Rinehart said before practice today at Redskins Park. Running back Clinton Portis is about to speak, so I have to run. We'll have...

Greg Blache gets his revenge against Steve Spagnuolo; Skins-Rams Defensive Review

Via Hog Heaven  |  September 23, 2009
Last year, the story of the Redskins-Giants game at FedEx Field was, in my opinion, the complete embarrassment of the Redskins' defensive coaching staff to adjust their gameplan for the field conditions, while the Giants defense took away the Redskins' running game and the Redskins ran right into it.While certainly, revenge would have been more satisfying if it game against...

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...

After apologizing for calling fans "dim wits," Washington Redskins rookie Robert Henson is apparently done with Twitter.

Hey Robert Henson - Mike Greenberg Isn’t a Fan

The usually reserved and vanilla Mike Greenberg, who isn’t nearly the Jets fan we are, got wound up yesterday - for three minutes! - when talking about Washington Redskins rookie linebacker Robert Henson, the guy who ripped fans on twitter. Question that hasn’t been addressed: Can people working 9-5 at McDonald’s afford to go to [...]

Robert Henson Quitting Twitter Confirms Tweeting Equals Smoking

Via Bleacher Report  |  September 22, 2009
Robert Henson, the Washington Redskins linebacker who tweeted that fans who booed the lackluster 9-7 win over the St. Louis Rams were "dim wits", has taken down his Twitter account, proving once again that Twitter, like smoking cigarettes, is terrible for us even though we don't know it yet. Look at the comparisons: - People smoked cigarettes without understanding...

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...
