Congratulations go out to our winner of week 9, jeremyroyce, with a score of 8-5 due to the tie-breaker. Rounding out the top 5 are: Deadskins, Mursilis, VetSkinsFan and langleyparkjoe each with the same 8-5 record.
Redskin fans are definitely beat up this week, but hopefully the team can build off of a little second half success last week against the Falcons. While they may still have lost the game 31-17, the offense put together a couple of drives in the third and fourth quarters, that were as sharp as they have looked in all of 2009.
There will be one big offensive change on Sunday against the Broncos, Levi Jones will be getting his first start at left tackle. Redskin fans seem quick to dismiss this move as futile because Jones failed to catch on with a couple of teams earlier this season, but I don’t see it that way at all. The Redskins need some personnel ‘luck’ with the state of their roster, especially the offensive line, so if Jones can come in and play well, he could prove very ‘lucky’ indeed. In my opinion, Washington need to sign four offensive linemen before the start of 2010, so if Levi plays well, he could turn into one of those players. He really only has to be better than Stephon Heyer to make it worthy of serious consideration.
How many people here thought the Redskins actually stood a chance versus Atlanta?
Raise your hands.
Okay, now if you are one of the ones sitting at your computer with your hand raised I want you to turn it towards yourself and slap yourself in the face. Nobody can see you with your hand raised at a computer (unless you are video chatting, which you are not) and those that can are probably wondering why you are sitting at your computer with your hand raised; you should at least look productive.

John Riggins has been at it for weeks with some serious venom cast in the direction of the Washington Redskins organization. Though sometimes radical, the brash Redskins legend often says a few things that ring true for many Redskin fans. But did his latest rant cross a boundary? Check out Dan Steinberg’s recap at D.C. Sports Bog, if you haven’t already seen or heard Riggins latest comments.
Congratulations go out to REDEEMEDSKIN for winning week 8 with a score of 10-3! Excellent job REDEEMEDSKIN! Rounding out the top 3 are VetSkinsFan and DesertSkin with a score of 9-4. The bulk of our hognosticators were tied at 8-5.
So it’s a bye week, and for Redskin fans, that seems to mean a whole lot of people walking around with their heads down. Who can blame them? It’s been a tough first seven games.
Since the bye week is almost at the half-way point, I thought I’d take a look at the things that were ‘good’ for the Redskins in the first half of 2009.
Calling all Redskin fans… the 2009 Pro Bowl voting is now open.
While it might be hard to think about the Pro Bowl in the middle of a dismal season, we as Redskin fans must unify and make sure that London Fletcher is selected this year.
