Redskins conservative coaching continues to be costly

The Washington Redskins were lucky in Week 7 against the Arizona Cardinals... the offensive play calling in the 4th quarter was strangely familiar - on 3rd down and between 3 and 6 yards to go, throw a pass out in the flat. It cost the 'Skins against the Packers, as Jason Campbell dumped a pass into...

Who do you root for when your favorite teams' rivals are playing each other?

Going into Week 6, there was no doubt that the biggest game of the week was the New England Patriots at the Dallas Cowboys. Two unbeatens going head-to-head. Makes for great football, sure... but if you're a fan of the Washington Redskins and Peyton Manning (so by proxy the Colts) like I am... this...

Pats rally 27 points to crush the Cowboys

I love it when the Dallas Cowboys are taken down a notch because I'm a big 'skins fan. Dallas succumbed to their own big heads leading the New England Patriots in the second half, floundering about while the Patriots put up 27 more points to... well... humiliate the Cowboys. The 'boys are...

This is my second edition of "Mileage Variances" where your mileage may vary, but this is what I'm reading right here. I did not get an opportunity to watch too much football this weekend, mostly highlights and articles and the like, but even that's enough for some of these games. The...

The Green Bay Packers are for real

Ok, everyone, listen up - the Green Bay Packers are for real. Brett Favre is in championship form, and this young Packer team has stepped up and followed their Hall of Fame bound leader, who has now tied Dan Marino's career TD record. The Packers came from behind to defeat the San Diego Chargers...

Redskins fall to the Giants in an upset 24-17 loss at home

The 'Skins blew it. 1 yard. A single solitary yard. That's it. 1st and flippin goal on the 1 yard line with 58 seconds and they blew it. They had a kickin lead. And they let the Giants come back. They let the Giants hold them on the one yard line. This game belonged to the 'Skins and they...

NFL Week 2 "Mileage Variances"

I had a few simple thoughts from the week that was Week 2 in the NFL that are noteworthy, but not "take-an-entire-post-worthy" like the Browns / Bengals shoot-out at the Dawg Pound . A lot of these are really my opinion, and your mileage may vary - so I decided to call these "Mileage Variances"...

Are the Packers playing harder for "the old man"?

I can't start this post without first tossing my congratulations out there to Brett Favre for surpassing John Elway 's record for all-time wins by a starting quarterback this weekend when the Green Bay Packers defeated the New York Giants , giving Favre 149 career wins. With that one out of the...

Browns offense surprises everyone in 51-45 win over Bengals

Less than a week after trading Charlie Frye to Seattle , the Cleveland Browns hosted the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2. Analysts and fans (even Browns fans, I'm sure) thought this game would become a Cincinnati blow-out of the Browns and that we would only need to wait for the lead to go so far before...
