Recurring columns and weekly editorial series from the Redskins era.
For the second time in as many weeks, the Washington Redskins wasted a dominant offensive performance, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs, 28-21. Also in keeping with the tradition of the 2005 Redskins, the game came down to the last play. Passing Mark Brunell and Santana Moss have obviously established a chemistry that is uncanny. … Read more

Another week is in the books, and the Washington Redskins tasted defeat for the first time at the hands of the Denver Broncos. The Redskins continued the trend of playing hard for sixty minutes, and almost pulled out another dramatic comeback at the end, but this time it was not meant to be. Passing The … Read more
Under a clear blue October sky, the Redskins welcomed the Seattle Seahawks to FedEx and THN was on hand to host our second tailgate party of the season.
