There Are Some Bright Sides to the Rebuilding Redskins

Via The Penalty Flag  |  November 07, 2011
Its official, the Washington Redskins are heading down the all-to familiar path of self-destruction that they have experienced in seasons past.  The offense is playing like they are just going through the motions and special teams isn’t giving them any opportunity to excel. “Right now you take a look at the offense and it’s tough to take. It’s tough to take for me,” Shanahan...

Via Redskins Insider  |  November 09, 2011
Washington Redskins strong safety LaRon Landry missed practice on Wednesday because of a sore left Achilles’ tendon. It’s the same Achilles that forced Landry to miss the final seven weeks of last season and kept him from earning his first trip to the Pro Bowl.

Lots of Roster Changes

Via Pro Sports Blogging  |  November 09, 2011
Shanahan is making changes but this being week 10 I’m not sure how much or little it will help.

New signings to the Redskins:  DL Kentwan Balmer (49ers, Panthers), WR David Anderson (Texans) and CB Domonique Johnson. The Patriots have...

Target Practice, Week 9: Roy Helu had a rather busy day

Via Roto Arcade  |  November 08, 2011
OK, this couldn't possibly have been Washington's game-plan against the Niners: Roy Helu saw as many pass targets on Sunday (17) as all of the Redskins' wide receivers combined (Gaffney 5, Hankerson 5, Austin 5, Armstrong 1, Paul 1). Washington quarterback John Beck seemed to be acutely aware — perhaps too aware — of the prior week's sack total. Beck was dropped...
