After lobbying unsuccessfully all season for a role in the Washington Redskins’ offense, return specialist Brandon Banks finally got to contribute outside of special teams when he threw a 49-yard touchdown pass to Santana Moss. But Redskins coach Mike Shanahan doesn’t sound as if he plans on increasing Banks’ role in the final three weeks of the season.

Washington Redskins QB Rex Grossman will be a free agent after the conclusion of the 2011 regular season, but could Grossman be back under center for the Redskins in 2012?

Brady admitted he made a “dumb” mistake in trying to force a pass to Tiquan Underwood in the back of the end zone. The Patriots were ready to go up two scores either via touchdown or...

When the Washington Redskins' maligned offense lost two of its best players to drug suspensions last week, it became fair to wonder how they would move the ball during the final four games of the season. Tight end Fred Davis and left tackle Trent Williams are athletic blockers capable of ...

Prior to this season, Barry Cofield and Eli Manning were teammates. Cofield was on the Giants’ 2007 Super Bowl team, so he saw Manning lead the most important game-winning drive of his career to achieve the impossible. Still, that was not Manning at his best.
