I dont think it matters who starts. Neither has seperated from the other. And honestly. If our D is much improved, which it is on paper, Hightower and Torain(if healthy) looks like a very solid backfield. Hopefully Cooley can come back, if not Fred Davis can step up. The Oline looks much improved. Landry is a question mark because of injury. We just need a QB to keep the car between the lines and I think either QB can do that. Our D should keep us in enough games.

Helu looks mighty impressive too!!

8/25/2011 11:53:42 PM

Beck will most likely be the starter. Yes the backfield is looking great right now. Torain's health means Helu will be the change of pace back...and if Hightower starts fumbling (which he did frequently in Arizona) Helu could be the #1. He is looking just that good for a rookie.

Jarvis Jenkins torn ACL.

Someone please take twitter away from these people.


STFU Laron Landry.

9/6/2011 3:52:03 PM

Ok so I was wrong....Grossman it is. Should be interesting to see how quickly he gets pulled.

Where is the local Redskins bar in the Triangle? Ive heard Tobacco Road on Glenwood or Draft also on Glenwood?

9/8/2011 2:03:02 PM

Used to be Tailgaters. And if you go carry a bullet proof vest and some heat.

9/8/2011 3:11:08 PM

what? I think Draft is the spot...I found a Yahoo group page indicating this.

9/8/2011 3:36:41 PM

it was Hi5 for a while, when Hi5 existed, and i really liked the setup, food was good too

unfortunately that was back when you could smoke indoors, and the room basically became "Weekly Redskins Tobacco Hotbox" and i eventually stopped going

the last game i saw there was the last skins playoff game, sorry for the jinx

9/8/2011 4:21:25 PM

So we are wearing the gold pants this year?

9/11/2011 6:17:26 PM

I hope this is the only game they wear them.


2 big plays by the defensive rookies.

9/11/2011 6:21:00 PM

skins might actually be worth watching this year

9/11/2011 7:22:40 PM

HAIL!

9/11/2011 7:28:47 PM

9/11/2011 7:29:31 PM

9/11/2011 7:37:10 PM

9/11/2011 8:00:10 PM

Nice to see the young guys make an impact.

9/11/2011 8:11:29 PM

Hail!

9/11/2011 9:44:09 PM

Grossman has been a stud since joining the redskins.

HAIL

9/11/2011 11:20:53 PM

Awesome win today. HAIL!

9/12/2011 12:10:09 AM

WOOO what a win. win over a divisional opponent is a great way to start the season. Defense looked great and Sexy Rexy is the man. Hightower ran well and the Fred Davis dominated. FG block was key i think.

Still, have to wonder how much was the Redskins and how much was the ineptitude of the Giants...they looked absolutely awful. Still not getting my hopes up until we play a more disciplined team.

9/12/2011 2:02:59 PM

Ha. Christopher Walken is a Skins fan. He's on espn 980 giving fantasy football advice.


Although if it's an impersonator he's really damn good.

9/26/2011 1:19:24 PM

Dexter Manley sounds like he could still put on a uniform tonight and dominate.

9/26/2011 1:21:59 PM

lets go redskins. please keep it a close game if you can't take the lead.

9/26/2011 2:16:11 PM
