2010 Washington Redskins Schedule

2009 Review:

At the beginning of the season no one thought that Washington would struggle the way they did, but it happened. From players second guessing coaches, to coach’s second guessing management, to former players calling out current players it was definitely a season to forget for the Redskins. Jason Campbell did as much as he could for the Redskins but if you can’t protect your quarterback chances are you will not win many games and Washington didn’t win much. Jim Zorn was struggling to keep his players in check and even had issues of players wanting to play (or so it seemed at times). It was just a mess on and off the field for the team, Clinton Portis on again off again injuries did not help the team and Chris Cooley’s season ending injury took out an important piece of the offensive puzzle. Can you believe that just in 2008 Washington had an 8-8 record and things were looking promising but when you have struggles in the clubhouse it definitely takes a toll on your performance on the field?

2010 Preview:

Forgetting what is behind and pressing toward what is ahead, that should be the motto for these Washington Redskins. I guess you could say that it is the new look Redskins, and let’s start at the quarterback position gone is Jason Campbell and in is Donovan McNabb. McNabb is a proven winner and he knows how to lead a team something that Washington desperately needed. More than that the ‘skins brought in Larry Johnson and Willie Parker at running back, they boosted their offensive line with the drafting of massive offensive lineman Trent Williams and signing offensive tackles Artis Hicks and Jamaal Brown to make sure McNabb is protected. The Redskins are looking to rebuild and they are making serious moves to see it happen now. For me I believe that even though they have made these moves they will still struggle in the division, remember it never bodes well to trade or have former players in your own division (ask Green Bay), and I think the Redskins will definitely be ready to play against the Eagles but what about the others that they will play? It is important that Donovan have someone to throw to, someone who can make the big play does Washington have that only time will tell. I think Washington will be better, I mean they made themselves better just getting McNabb he is good for at least one or two wins but I still think they struggle as they rebuild but look out down the road.

2010 prediction:

Washington Redskins: 7-9 (4th place in NFC East)
