The Redskins Will Have A New Leading Rusher This Season

Roy Helu Jr. is going on season-ending injured reserve with what may or may not be turf toe, which is a questionable season-ending injury. (Yes, I’m questioning the toughness of someone who shuts it down due to turf toe. No, I have no idea how painful turf toe can be. Is it like athlete’s foot?) You’ll recall Helu was the Redskins leading rusher last season with just 640 yards...

Chris Cooley On Redskin RBs

Don’t ask me Juan… Chris Cooley may not be with the Redskins player anymore, but even when he was with the team he had no idea who the starting RB was week to week. One week just like all of us, he fully expected Ryan Torain to be the starter. He even put him in his fantasy starting lineup. “I walked up to (Ryan) Torain in the locker room and said, ‘Dude, you’re starting...

Redskins End Season Last in NFC East

No surprise here.  The Redskins were blasted by Vick’s 3 TDs in the 4th quarter to be beaten 34-10.  Maybe the Skins would fair better if there were only 3 quarters as they consistently lose steam in the 4th. What Shanahan has been doing over the last few weeks where it’s clear there were no playoff hopes was to put players in, that normally wouldn’t see any play time in...
