Wrestling Fever Comes To Redskins Park

Click to view slideshow. Earlier this week, a unique fan creation showed up at Redskins Park in the form of a Redskins-themed championship belt.  And why not? The belt comes to Ashburn from James Makle, a firefighter from Prince George’s County, who made the belt for himself a few years ago.  As he stated in his accompanying letter, he was sending the letter to the team so...

Brian Orakpo fighting double-teams

There are still two games remaining, but linebacker Brian Orakpo may see his sack numbers dip for the second year in a row. Orakpo had 11 as a rookie in 2009, 8.5 last year and has 7 through 14 games this season. Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett said despite that stat, Orakpo is still improving as a football player. Read full article >>

Redskins secondary aims to continue interception upswing

Washington Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett and his defensive backs have said all season that interceptions come in bunches and if they continued to do their jobs effectively, eventually they would experience a breakthrough. The Redskins finally had that day last week against the New York Giants, when they intercepted Eli Manning a season’s-best three times. Cornerbacks...

Redskins ticket seller offers money-back guarantee

Monday, I pointed out that the marketplace for Redskins-Vikings tickets seems fairly soft. Tuesday, I got another indication of that, when a reader sent me a link to this eBay listing: ***REDSKINS WIN OR YOU GET A FULL REFUND!!!*** Wait, really? Read full article >>

Will Ryan Kerrigan Win Defensive Rookie of the Year?

The Redskins didn’t do much right defensively in 2010. Amidst a tricky transition to the 3-4 defense, the unit finished the season ranked 31st. The change in philosophy was made more difficult by the lack of true 3-4 personnel, and so naturally Mike Shanahan made wholesale changes during the offseason. It started in the draft when Shanahan passed on several quarterbacks and...

Neild Brings Hess Trucking Joy To Fans

By now, many of you are familiar with Redskins nose tackle Chris Neild, and the nickname “Truck” that he acquired in the fifth grade. Perhaps not surprisingly, trucks were a favorite toy of Neild’s growing up.  Each Christmas he would thunder downstairs to find a new Hess truck under the tree.  His sister even called him “Hess” from time to time, a...

Grossman turnovers 'not acceptable,' says Kyle Shanahan

Washington Redskins quarterback Rex Grossman has given the ball away 22 times -- 18 interceptions and four lost fumbles -- which ties him for the NFL lead with Philip Rivers of the San Diego Chargers.

Clinton Portis on Tim Tebow

Having transcribed more Clinton Portis radio interviews than possibly any living human, I was thrilled to learn that the former Redskins star would be on both Mike & Mike and Colin Cowherd’s program during a Tuesday trip to Bristol. Portis made headlines virtually every Tuesday in D.C., and this would be like a nostalgic trip to free blog traffic land. Read full article >>

Week 16 Power Rankings Roundup

AP Image It’s hard to believe that only a few short weeks ago, the Redskins media was considering the possibility of a 3-13 finish.  It’s even crazier to consider that this team was once sitting at 3-1. With each win and loss, the media has micro-analyzed the direction of this team, and we’re left with power rankings that reflect whatever the current mood may be...

Redskins vs. Vikings: 5 Questions

1. How will Roy Helu's injuries affect his impact? The rookie running back appeared on the injury report this week after totaling 116 touches in the last four games. Knee and toe injuries slowed him against the Giants last Sunday. The Redskins could limit his carries and give Evan Royster ...

We’ve Met Before: Vikings at Redskins

Series: Redskins lead 11-9 Last Meeting(s): When Minnesota beat Washington 17-13 last season, then-interim head coach Leslie Frazier (coaching his first game) should have taken away only one thing: Donovan McNabb has become a very ineffective quarterback. McNabb was 21-35 with a touchdown and an interception, but the Redskins had numerous easy third down-conversions fall to the ground...
