Cooley's replacements produce mixed results

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:45:00 -0500

With tight end Chris Cooley propped up on crutches, watching the team's latest loss from the sidelines, the Redskins got mixed results from his replacements. Veteran Todd Yoder scored a crucial touchdown in the fourth quarter that put the Redskins within striking distance, but second-year tight end Fred Davis mishandled a ball in the first quarter, which led to a Falcons' score. Quarterback Jason Campbell targeted Davis late in the opening quarter. Though the throw was a bit high, Dav...

Redskins @ Falcons - Fourth Quarter Thoughts

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:23:00 -0500

The good news first this time: the Redskins actually found a recipe for some success, a combination of quick passes and slashing runs, and also showed some actual heart and determination to make this into a real ballgame. Ladell Betts was finding holes that Clinton Portis has been slow to get to, and Jason Campbell looked sharp again finishing off a second long scoring drive with a pass to Todd Yoder in the back of the end zone.It felt, for the first time in a long time, like the Redskins we...

Well well, the Redskins scored two touchdowns. Who knew Todd Yoder could get his feet down in the corner of the end zone? Instead of being routed, they fought back and scored 17 points. Atlanta lost a challenge of the Yoder catch, so they were down to 2 timeouts. More importantly, they clearly had lost [...]

A little over a week ago, we tried to dissect the underside of a notebook page posted by Chris Cooley on his blog.While we were confident that we were dead-on in our analysis that it was the Redskins TE's tally on the bizarre antics of teammate Clinton Portis, Cooley corrected us:

Yode's Corner: Hail to BOSCHETTI

Thu, 27 Nov 2008 19:04:32 -0500

The day before thanksgiving marked the return of the great Ryan Boschetti. Since I wrote the ode to Boschetti leaving us. I find it only fitting that I write of his glamorous return. I think Thanksgiving week serves as the proper backdrop for the comeback. When I think about the many things ...
