To beat the Rams at home by a score of 9-7 isn't exactly impressive, but they'll take it however they can get it. At least the defense seemed to be effective. Then again, it all happened against the Rams, a team that struggled to score throughout 2008 and seems to have the same problem in 2009.
They lost to the Detroit Lions in week 3. Either the Detroit Lions were finally do for a win and it just happened to be against the Redskins - or the loss against the Lions showed the lack of focus and determination the Redskins have.
The Cowboys, Giants, and Eagles play competitive football nearly every year, and attempting to win that division is an extremely tall order for a team like Washington. For this reason, every game and every week matters to the fullest.
The Washington Redskins have a very tough schedule when you consider they must play the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles twice a season.
The defensive unit for Washington seemed solid on paper, but hasn't been showing up (I don't count the Rams game). The defenses in New York, Philadelphia, and Dallas are all stronger than that in Washington.
The Redskins have QB Jason Campbell -- who hasn't developed as the franchise QB the Redskins were hoping for, yet. Campbell is already 27 years old and the most touchdown passes he threw for in a season was only- in 08'. Redskins fans hope he is a late bloomer or otherwise the Redskins have no future with his as QB.
Their running game hasn't been looking like it has in the past. Clinton Portis is no doubt one of the best running backs of the decade; he's aging a bit, and seems to have lost a step.
Head Coach Jim Zorn is on the hot seat if he can't create some spark with his offense. The Redskins are a proud franchise with a rich history, if Zorn can't produce for the Redskins fans and ownership by motivating his players he won't last the season. The players must come ready to play and not play the blame game either as well. . - 31493
