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
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:
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.
Here are some of the interesting numbers and statistics from the Washington Redskins’ hard-fought 27-17 victory over the Denver Broncos. 388 – Total yards for the Redskins offense in their best whistle-to-whistle outing of the season. 269 – Total yards of offense for the Broncos… in the first half alone!

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.
Here are some of the more interesting numbers and stats from the Washington Redskins 31-17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday: 196 – Yards passing for Jason Campbell, going 15 of 22. He may not have been all world out there, but he wasn’t the problem either. 166 – Yards rushing for Michael Turner, … Read more
John Riggins has been at it for weeks with some serious venom cast in the direction of the Washington Redskins organization. Though sometimes radical, the brash Redskins legend often says a few things that ring true for many Redskin fans. But did his latest rant cross a boundary? Check out Dan Steinberg’s recap at D.C. Sports Bog, if you haven’t already seen or heard Riggins latest comments.
So it’s a bye week, and for Redskin fans, that seems to mean a whole lot of people walking around with their heads down. Who can blame them? It’s been a tough first seven games.
Since the bye week is almost at the half-way point, I thought I’d take a look at the things that were ‘good’ for the Redskins in the first half of 2009.
Calling all Redskin fans… the 2009 Pro Bowl voting is now open.
While it might be hard to think about the Pro Bowl in the middle of a dismal season, we as Redskin fans must unify and make sure that London Fletcher is selected this year.
There aren’t many Redskin fans that aren’t familiar with John Tayman, aka Bang, and his cartoons. Unfortunately for Redskin fans, John spreads his particular brand of cartoon ‘love’ around to all NFL teams now, but his latest episode is definitely a must-see for Redskin fans.
