Cowboys-Redskins: End of First Half

The second quarter wasn’t as ugly as the first, but it wasn’t pretty either.  The Redskins intercepted a tipped Tony Romo pass intended for Roy Williams, but lost Reed Doughty, the interceptor, on the play.  The Skins’ best plays were all provided by the defense.  There were the usual London Fletcher highlights, the afore mentioned pick, Chris Clemons [...]

Cowboys-Redskins: End of 1st Quarter

The Washington Redskins began tonight’s match-up with division foe Dallas in dubious fashion.  Jason Campbell led Fred Davis too much, resulting in a tipped ball which was picked off at about the 50 yard-line and returned to the Redskins’ 35.  Shortly it was Dallas 7, Washington 0.  The next Washington drive was defined by a [...]

Cowboys & Indians: Ho Ho Ho

Cleveland & DC Swap Teams

The Associated Press is reporting that the Cleveland Browns have agreed to move to the nation’s capitol contingent upon the Redskins moving to Cleveland.  The two cities will literally swap teams in what has been described by both owners as a do-over.  When contacted for comment, the NFL league office noted that both teams’ records [...]

Redskins-Giants: What’s That Smell?

Tonight’s edition of Monday Night Football is over.  New York Giants 45 – Washington Redskins 12.  There’s an odor waffling out of FedEx Field tonight.  It’s the stench of defeat encased in abject futility.  Tonight the Redskins stunk in all phases of the game.  I would say the Giants excelled in all phases, but how [...]

Redskins-Giants Halftime: Beyond Absurd

Monday Night Football is the regular season’s grand stage of professional football.  It’s a chance for teams which don’t always gain much national exposure due to perennial poor records to showcase their talent and toughness.  It’s an opportunity for those teams to take advantage of the energy level which MNF brings like no other broadcast.  [...]
