Redskins vs. Saints- Pregame

As if their Redskins awful enough, the worst is yet to come. Tomorrow, the Redskins will play the Saints at home at 1:00pm. The Saints are 11-0. The Redskins are 3-8, but as inconsistent as they are, who knows what will happen. Logically, I’m thinking the Saints will win 42-14.

The Redskins will be missing key players, including Clinton Portis (concussion) and DeAngelo Hall (knee injury). Several players are unlikely to play, including Albert Haynesworth (ankle injury), Justin Tryon (hip injury) and Mike Sellers is a possibility (ankle injury).

Like I tell myself every weekend, if the Redskins could just win this game, I will never doubt them again. They did come up pretty close against the Eagles, and beat the Broncos, so anything is possible. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Redskins Fall to the Eagles

It was like Christmas morning waking up and turning on the Redskins game. It was about 1:07pm, and the Skins were up 7-3 against the Eagles in Philly. They scored on the opening drive, and it seemed too good to be true. Obviously, it was.

The Redskins’ performance was particularly impressive due to the fact that Albert Haynesworth, DeAngelo Hall, Clinton Portis and Chris Cooley were out with injuries.

The Skins led the Eagles 24-16 in the third quarter, successfully converting 8 out of 13 third downs. But for some reason, they also seem to fall apart in the fourth quarter.

The Eagles were then able to score 11 points, including a touchdown, then a two point conversion. They won the game with a field goal, beating the Skins 27-24.

The Skins will play the undefeated Saints next week at 1 pm.

Former Falcon Fight During Skins Game

DeAngelo Hall, current Redskins cornerback, played for the Atlanta Falcons for his first four seasons. Hall left the Falcons on bad terms, due to issues with head coach Mike Smith and GM Thomas Dimitroff. The Redskins played the Falcons in Atlanta earlier today. Not surprising, a scuffle broke out during the game on the sideline and Hall was in the middle of it.

It all started when Falcons QB Matt Ryan was hit out of bounds. Chaos ensued, and Hall claims that coaching staff threw a few punches as well. The Redskins were charged with a 15-yard penalty for the incident. It’s a matter of he-said-he-said so it all depends on who the NFL will decide is responsible.
