The Redskins Week 17 game was essentially a microcosm of their entire season. Penalties, missed opportunities and poor decisions largely defined a very frustrating end to an equally frustrating season. But there is reason for optimism for next year, as many of the young players continue to show incredible potential. The Good: Well, for starters, [...]
The Washington Redskins will conclude the season on Sunday in Philadelphia against their division opponents. The Eagles are hoping to finish up the season .500, while the Redskins attempt to finish with the same record from last season. Redskins Offense: The last time these teams met Grossman had one of his worst games ever with [...]
The Redskins take on the Vikings this week, for the final home game of the season. Both teams have had disappointing seasons, filled with quarterback drama and defeat. The Redskins are 5-9, while the Vikings are 2-12. Statistically speaking, this game should be less of a challenge for the skins, but as we’ve all seen, [...]
