STILL Buying the Redskins

Contrary to my Brett Favre obsession and long-time Packer following, I'm still a SLIGHT Washington homer. So, one could say that my opinion is a little biased. I'm still buying the Redskins this week. If a stock is predicted to go up after you buy it and it goes down a little more, it's sort of a rule of thumb to buy more. I am a believer in the 'Skins, but it is necessary for me to vent on something.

Someone please explain to Jason Campbell that when you're running away from a defender, that means (and correct me if I'm wrong) that he's BEHIND you. So, 'twould not be smart to reach your arm BACK to throw a pass, with the chance of one of those guys you're running from knocking it out of your hand. And, please shave that eyebrow in between your nose and upper lip.

Take back the muffed punt by Antwaan Randel-El, the most overrated punt returner in the NFL, an unlucky interception for a TD, and the previously stated bone-head play by Campbell, and Washington would have been in Monday's game.

Buy: Redskins

Tagged as the team that gives their opponents their first win, the Washington Redskins have quickly become the new Oakland Raiders of the NFL. Football fans have jumped off the Redskins bandwagon faster than Dan Snyder can sign overrated free-agents. Don't forget, though, that the Redskins have the 5th-ranked scoring defense in the NFL. Don't quit on them just because they treat the end-zone like it's littered with tampons. (At least for another week or two) Jim Zorn NOT quitting after the most ego-killing act for a Head Coach to endure is a good sign. Zorn set an example in taking one for the team. If the fans, players, and coaches back Sherm Lewis, a win over the Eagles this weekend is not a longshot.
