Graham Gano is perfect again

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 24, 2011
After a shaky first three months of the season, the Redskins’ field goal unit finally seems to have regained some stability. For a fourth consecutive week, kicker Graham Gano succeeded on all of his attempts. Gano made all four of his field goal attempts Sunday, including one from 53 yards out and another from 47 yards out. Read full article >>

Redskins secondary aims to continue interception upswing

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 23, 2011
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...

RB Roy Helu will not play Saturday

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 24, 2011
The Washington Redskins will be without starting running back Roy Helu, who was limited in practice this week by knee and toe injuries. Helu had hoped to play and said on Thursday that he felt “a lot better,” but coaches obviously consider him unable to play effectively Saturday against the Minnesota Vikings. Fellow rookie Evan Royster is expected to start in place of Helu. Read...

Helu, Brown questionable vs. Vikings

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 23, 2011
The Washington Redskins have listed starting running back Roy Helu and starting right tackle Jammal Brown as questionable for their game Saturday against the Minnesota Vikings. Helu, hampered by knee and toe injuries, and Brown, who has missed the last two games because of a strained groin, were limited in practice this week. Both players have said they are hopeful that they can...

Halftime Report From FedExField

Via Redskins Blog  |  December 24, 2011
AP Image In the last two weeks Darrel Young has gone from an unsung hero in the blocking game, to being a weapon and playmaker on offense.  On the Redskins touchdown drive early in the second quarter, Young caught two passes for 33 yards.  At the time, he was the team’s top receiver, and it was Young’s top receiving day, ever. Not a bad offensive performance for a former...

Royster, O-Line Get Chance to Shine

Via NBC Washington  |  December 25, 2011
It’s been a long time coming for Evan Royster, but it was just another day at the office for the offensive line. The Redskins may have lost to the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday, but it also marked the fifth straight game in which Washington has gained at least 100 net yards rushing – a sign that Mike Shanahan’s vaunted ground game may be ready to take flight. The...

DALY: Jekyll and Hyde Redskins hit new low

Via Washington Times  |  December 24, 2011
ANALYSIS/OPINION This time, there was nowhere for the Washington Redskins to hide. Injuries? Heck, the Minnesota Vikings lost their All-Pro running back (Adrian Peterson) and starting quarterback (rookie Christian Ponder) on the first two snaps of the second half. Nothing to play for? Who has less to play for than ...

Redskins vs. Vikings: Five observations

Via Redskins Insider  |  December 25, 2011
The Washington Redskins found themselves with a prime opportunity to close out the season on a strong note and give their faithful fans a Christmas Eve treat, but instead, they fell short once again, falling 33-26 to the Minnesota Vikings, who had only two wins and had lost six straight prior to Saturday.

First Quarter Impressions

Via Redskins Blog  |  December 24, 2011
AP Image Much like last week, the Redskins turned the ball over early, but not because of aggressive play call down the field.  Instead, it came via a breakdown in protection that led to a sack-fumble.  The defense had a stellar stand, yielding two yard, but the Vikings were already in field goal range. Vikings kicker Ryan Longwell doesn’t miss those: 3-0. Running back Evan...

2012 Draft: Where Redskins fit in

Via Riggo's Rag  |  December 23, 2011
After last weekend’s win vs. the Giants and the Browns loss to the Cards, Washington slipped out of fourth pick down to 7th. Then yesterday we find out that Matt Barkley has decided to stay for his senior year at USC, which makes things that much harder for us to pick a QB. After taking stock of the teams expected to have the top 7 picks and their needs, here’s how I...
