1. Defense Falling Down on the Job The Skins defense isn’t getting the job done. Oh sure, they’re hitting people, defending the pass, slowing the run and holding offenses to FG’s and FG attempts… but that’s just not enough. The Skins D needs to score 16 points a game in order for the Skins to … Read more
There was a little “nip” in the air this week. “Football weather”, some may say. Others may say that it’s not really “football weather” until the temperature gets below freezing.

Both teams come into this game having lost a game that they felt they should win last week. The Redskins were of course defeated by the Browns in Cleveland, while the Ravens were the victim of Kansas City’s first victory of the season. The Ravens’ loss came on Monday night, thus giving Baltimore a shortened … Read more
