Welcome back for the kickoff of the 2010 Hognostications! It’s been a long off-season and we are fortunate to make it back to the best season of all…NFL Football!!!
TeeterSalad is the defending 2009 Hognostication Champion with a 171-85 record. His winning percentage was an impressive 67%. Rounding out the top 4 was: Mursilis 165-91, Deadskins and KazooSkinsFan at 163-93. We also experienced a first last year with Deadskins achieving the perfecto in week 4 with a 14-0 record!
Okay, so the Ravens game was everything the Bills game wasn’t; it was ugly. That being said, it wasn’t without it’s glimmers of hope. For example, Donovan McNabb’s completion percentage may have been dismal, and at times he looked like he was off target (well, was off target) but when he did connect it was for first down yardage. He completed 11 passes for 206 yards.
Grossman’s recent performance in his pre-season debut with the Redskins got me to thinkin’; can this guy really be better than I thought? Yeah sure it’s a preseason game, but I expected to see fumbled handoffs, interceptions and stalled drives the moment McNabb took his pads off. I think we all felt the same thing; Buffalo must be really bad if they can make Rex Grossman look like our starter.
It’s easy to have doubts about the abilities of Rex Grossman even though he’s played in a Super Bowl. Everyone knows that Grossman made his way into that Super Bowl on the backs of his defense. When you think about Grossman you see a QB rating of 59.7 since he achieved that rating twice in his career with the Bears.
Saturday night marked a momentous occasion for the burgundy and gold faithful as one of their own, Russ Grimm, was enshrined into the hallowed walls of Canton as one of the seven members of the 2010 Pro Football Hall of Fame class. His entry marked the first of hopefully many Hogs to make his way … Read more
So, it’s not unusual for there to be high optimism for Redskins fans during the offseason. This one feels real though. With Cerrato, Zorn and Campbell gone, replaced by Allen, Shanahan and McNabb it’s easy to see why Redskins fans are excited.
It doesn’t help matters much that Shanahan has said he expects to “win now.”
In the spirit of recognizing the greatest Redskins, it is my pleasure to introduce the new Russ Grimm Wallpaper. Want it in a widescreen version – no problem. Check out more Redskins Wallpapers. Hail!
Recently, Redskins linebacker Andre Carter took time to discuss a variety of topics with THN. A lot of his quotes made it into the article, which can be found here. Some didn’t. Which is what Leftovers is here to provide to you.
Despite Head Coach Mike Shanahan holding the most highly attended offseason programs the Redskins have seen in years, all the talk over the last month has been about the highest profile player, who happens to be absent from Redskins Park. Capping off a spring in which the Redskins failed to find a suitor for his … Read more
Washington Redskins general manager Bruce Allen and head coach Mike Shanahan knew well before this week’s NFL draft that they would be unequipped to fill many of the needs of the Washington Redskins. Leading up to the 2010 NFL draft the Redskins front office made moves to lessen the impact of being the team with … Read more
