The Six Pack

What follows is an answer to the chorus of complaints from the legions of fans who are tired of being distracted by “sensible” analysis backed by “facts” and “knowledge.” If you seek shelter from the twin storms that are “reality” and “logic,” then this is your port of call. 1) So … um … Sunday … Read more

Just in the Nick of time!

Many fans are exasperated by the kicking in Washington. Today the Redskins showed they are quite serious about fixing this problem. The coaches were planning to work out a rather inexperienced kicker today, Nick Novak, and a veteran kicker would have chance at the spot tomorrow, Todd Peterson. Redskin’s faithful will recall Nick Novak from … Read more

Fifth Quarter – New York Giants I

The Washington Redskins drop to 2-3 — 0-2 in the brutal NFC East — with a 19-3 pasting at the hands of the New York Giants. There were no signs of the team that put up 36 points in an overtime victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. Luckily, with the Tennessee Titans on the … Read more

The Brunell topic has been beat to death, but sufficeth to … Read more

XBox Game Sim: Redskins @ Giants

Hog Wire News and Notes

Wide receiver Santana Moss was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for Week 4 after his three-touchdown performance against Jacksonville. Moss has been honored in this fashion twice before (for his performances against the Cowboys and Giants last season). Moss is ranked third in the NFL in average yards per catch at 19.2. … Read more

Hognostications: Week 5

This Hognosticator thought he had seen a good game in Houston? It may have been, but it was nothing like the thriller last week against the Jags. Without question, an all-time classic.
