Barring major injuries to their starters, the Washington Redskins are on the verge of surprising their critics. They may not silence them, but they should surprise them. Even with a significant injury to one or two starters, they could still defy the pundits. How can that be, you ask? Is this just the wistful musings [...]

The fat lady just sang, but not before Gostowski kicked the game-winning field goal for the Patriots. It appeared to me that Belichek was tired and just wanted the game to end. Imagine his horror if the Redskins had returned the kick-off to the 35 yard line and Suisham had converted a 52 yard field [...]

The 4th quarter is about to start, and I must say I’m not surprised that the 3rd quarter featured interceptions, penalties, and a touchdown for each team. By the way, the Redskins just committed their 13th penalty of the game to start the 4th quarter, and it was a big one – 15 yards for [...]

Look out now – the Skins are moving. They got the ball near their 40 and voila, several first downs in a row. Jason Campbell is throwing lights out now. From the Patriots’ 31 he tossed it into the end zone to Moss to no avail. If that doesn’t work, just pick up 7 or [...]

I’m seeing, but I’m not believing. Penalties galore, a deep safety who gets faked out of his athletic supporter, two face mask penalties, an unusual unsportsmanlike call on the bench, a defense which can’t stop the run, and an offensive line which can’t run-block. Am I in a time warp? Is this the Redskins’ team [...]

Eagles’ fans are a blast. After a loss or close win over a perceived less-than-worthy opponent, you pretty much have to talk them off of the proverbial ledge. They’re ready to jump to their deaths while obscenely skewing their beloved Eagles for every stupid move, real or imagined. I feel for them, I really do.

Ah yes, the established, entrenched media. Say anything as fact, rehash everything, and for goodness sake, express those expert opinions which aren’t worth the cost of a single subscription because Columnists don’t get to know the teams on which they report well enough. In the Redskins’ case, here are some recent gems …

He blocks, he causes a fumble on a punt, and he catches a touchdown pass from Chase Daniel. Guess what? Fred Davis looks like an entirely different player. He’s a site for sore eyes.
Speaking of turning it around, I believe Justin Tryon has acquitted himself, as well. He’s played most of [...]
