Week 9: Seahawks

The Fun – N – Gun, or the Fun – N – Run emerged today as the Redskins came back to defeat the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks didn’t self destruct either, so the Redskins can’t be called lucky, as some might be willing to state. They made mistakes, but the Redskins countered with some of … Read more

Note from Boss Hogette

The Cowboys win again. The Cowboys have won every game with the Redskins in Dallas since 1995. That has to be some kind of record. And the Cowboys put the ball on the ground at least four out of the first five times they had to ball Sunday. And they had at least two touchdowns … Read more

Week 8: Deja Vu in Dallas

Ah, Shaolin Redskins fans–the tempest is blowing prodigiously in my little mountain valley.

Down but not out…yet.

Tons of questions at Redskin Park, but only ounces of answers. Washington couldn’t have asked for a better time for a bye week. The Redskins were stumbling before going to Buffalo where they were embarrassed. If the Redskins were in a prizefight, they would have been given the mandatory “standing eight count”. By far it … Read more

State of the Offensive Line

This group was touted as the possible Second Coming of the beloved Hogs. Not yet. But it has not been for a lack of effort. The offensive line has struggled to find its identity through the first seven games. The line will take the heat for the disheartening number of sacks allowed and the obscene … Read more

The State of Special Teams

Redskins’ Special Teams coack Mike Stock has been under close scrutiny over the last few weeks. Less than a month ago, many Redskin fans were actually calling for Stock’s job as Washington continued it’s seemingly endless special teams’ struggles. But things have changed recently.
