REDSKINS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Robert Griffin III says his injury may have been worse than thought

“The biggest thing for me is coming back healthy,” RGIII said on ESPN980 Wednesday. “Last year I wasn’t healthy, and it sucked, there’s...

The Washington Redskins and their forgotten dynasty
When the word dynasty comes up in NFL circles, almost everybody thinks of the same teams. The Cleveland Browns dominated the 1950’s, followed by the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots in each subsequent decade.
Somehow, the Washington Redskins from 1982-91 get forgotten. Washington, with head coach Joe Gibbs at...

Washington Redskins fan savages excuses made for Robert Griffin III
We can understand when fans get aggravated with their starting quarterbacks from time to time, but this Washington Redskins fan we found ranting on Twitter might be taking his criticism of Robert Griffin III a little bit far:

NFC East: What players surprised in 2014?
For as many players who disappoint and fail to meet expectations, there is an equal number of players on a roster who shatter the expectations that fans, coaches, and analysts set out for them before the season. It could be injury, where they were drafted, or just a body of work that makes them an afterthought for some. The players that surprise are the ones that get you excited...

New ad asking Redskins to change the name
The Oneida Change the Mascot campaign has a new ad out asking the Washington ‘Skins to change the name of the team. It’s simple and effective, though I doubt it will sway the minds of those who now see keeping the name as a matter of principle. The Oneida did not get permission from the NFL to use this footage so I don’t know how long this ad will last. Here it is.
