Picking Up the Torch

Writes THN member welch, our local history buff: “Just have to come back to the only online Redskins home to smile some more. One game is not a season, as we all said last week, but it sure helps when that game is a win!. Hail to the Redskins. Remember Gene Brito every time a … Read more

Run CP! Run!

This week, Clinton Portis will run against a defense that yielded 146 rushing yards (7.3 YPC) against Tampa Bay last week. The Redskins will have to look to equal, or better that, to give themselves a good opportunity to win the game this weekend.  

It won’t be easy for Washington, considering that after last week’s offensive performance, its safe to assume that opposing teams are going to make the Redskins beat them in the air and stack the box. Portis will likely see eight and nine man fronts until the Redskins can establish some sort of rhythm in the passing game.

The New Orleans Saints are 7-14 all time versus the Redskins, with their last loss coming December 17th, 2006 at the Superdome.

The All ‘New’ Redskins

So, we get a new coach for our new season, and start off with New York, and then New Orleans.

Okay, so the Redskins didn’t exactly knock anyone’s socks off in New York. Probably a good thing since I can’t imagine how knocking someone’s socks off really translates into doing a good job. Whatever the Redskins did, it was certainly the opposite of a good job.

Hognostications Schedule

Due to time restrictions and the amount of data tracking that goes into Hognostications each week, we try to have the cut-off date for picks be 9pm of the Friday evening before the Sunday games.

This year, there are an inordinate amount of games on Thursday nights. So please MAKE SURE that you know this schedule and get your picks in on time. Virtually all weeks that there is a Thursday night game, the game is at 8:15pm and you have until 6pm that day to get your picks in.
