Have you ever wondered to yourself how the Redskins coaching staff haven’t been able to see in a practice, the same things that we fans see in a game?

Samuels – To Retire Or Not To Retire?
While trying to guess what Chris Samuels will do in 2010 is probably a waste of time – what else do Redskin fans have to talk about right now?
The Rooney Ruse
Anybody else sick and tired of hearing about the Rooney Rule? Anybody else bored to tears with reading about the politics associated with it? I know it is ironic to ink a blog about it when I’m sick of hearing about it, but isn’t that what blogs are for?
Scabs To Pick
Well we are only one day past a very memorable day for Redskin fans, but I can’t help but look back and have a couple of issues…
Cerrato Out, Allen In
In what most Redskin fans would classify as an early Christmas present, Vinny Cerrato resigned as the Washington Redskins executive vice president of football operations on Thursday. It is the end of an era – an unsuccessful, often painful era.
By The Numbers: Raiders
Here are the numbers and statistics from the Washington Redskins 34-13 drubbing of the Oakland Raiders on Sunday: 222 – Yards passing for Jason Campbell, on a 16 for 28 day. It wasn’t a Pro Bowl performance, but he was solid. He also had 20 yards rushing on 4 carries. 108 – Yards in penalties … Read more
Sit Down Carlos
Cornerback Carlos Rogers was benched on Sunday, after giving up a 40-yard touchdown reception to Brandon Marshall. On the play, Rogers was beaten badly on a double move, allowing Marshall to get behind him and make the catch.
Carlos was a little sensitive after the game:
Game Recap: Redskins 27, Broncos 17
Turning Point:
Hunter Smith’s 35-yard touchdown pass to Mike Sellers on a fake field goal. It knotted the game at 14-14 and really gave the Redskins renewed life.
By The Numbers – Broncos

Unfortunately for the Broncos, they … Read more
Mid-Week News and Notes: Levi and LJ
Redskin fans are definitely beat up this week, but hopefully the team can build off of a little second half success last week against the Falcons. While they may still have lost the game 31-17, the offense put together a couple of drives in the third and fourth quarters, that were as sharp as they have looked in all of 2009.
There will be one big offensive change on Sunday against the Broncos, Levi Jones will be getting his first start at left tackle. Redskin fans seem quick to dismiss this move as futile because Jones failed to catch on with a couple of teams earlier this season, but I don’t see it that way at all. The Redskins need some personnel ‘luck’ with the state of their roster, especially the offensive line, so if Jones can come in and play well, he could prove very ‘lucky’ indeed. In my opinion, Washington need to sign four offensive linemen before the start of 2010, so if Levi plays well, he could turn into one of those players. He really only has to be better than Stephon Heyer to make it worthy of serious consideration.
