Like all NFL teams, the Redskins have some important decisions to make about both their restricted and unrestricted free agents. Of the Redskins Restricted Free Agents, TE Zeron Flemister was the only player that needed to be retained and he was already re-signed. WR Chris Doering flashed some ability but was unable to assert himself … Read more
1. Imagine the Ugliest Streaker Can you imagine the ugliest possible streaker running in slow-motion, across your front lawn, and not being able to take your eyes off the action. I’m talking about a freakish sight here. Something like Danny DeVito and Rosie O’Donnell, butt-naked, trotting hand-in-hand, while holding pink poodles. Now imagine you are … Read more
RUSHING: The Redskins had another solid day on the ground with over 150 yards rushing between Ladell Betts and Kenny Watson. Once again the rookie RB’s split the load evenly carrying the ball 17 times each. Watson had 58 yards and a touchdown while Betts added 98 yards. Unfortunately Betts fumbled the ball going into … Read more
RUSHING: My first five quarter awarding since The 5th Quarter’s inception. Sure it was against the expansion Houston Texans, but when you have two running backs gain over 100 yards in the same game, there is little choice. Ladell Betts carried the ball 20 times for 116 yards, and Kenny Watson added 110 yards on … Read more
1. Ramsey the Great Against the best defense the Redskins have faced all season, with a pathwork offensive line and a slew of rookies at the skill positions – Ramsey looked like the next great, Redskins’ QB.

For those of you regulars to The Cheap Seats, you will see that this is not the normal stuff. Christmas has always been my … Read more
Good day, Shaolin Redskins fans. It is a crisp dawn here outside my little hut, but the fish are biting in the deep pools edged with ice. It has been some days since our army returned from battle; the loss was perhaps anticipated, but there is excitement nonetheless at the skills and leadership exhibited by … Read more
RUSHING: When Stephen Davis had 24 yards on his first 2 carries, it looked as though the Rdskins were going to employ a steady dose of running. Then, Davis fumbled the ball on his third carry and separated his shoulder on the same play. After that, Washington only ran the ball 23 more times. Ladell … Read more
1. First of Two, Tune Up Games for the Playoffs In the words of them immortal, Jim Mora “Playoffs!?, Playoffs!?” Yes, PLAYOFFS. The Redskins have on meaningful game remaining on the schedule this season – December 29th, at home, versus the Dallas Cowboys. In Darrell Green’s final game as a Washington Redskin, the streak must … Read more
So here we are again. Another season drawing to a close with the Redskins “playing out the string”. With three games left in the season and the playoffs well out of the picture, the Redskins should start to prepare for the 2003 season. It is hard not to look around the league and compare our … Read more
