By MARK F. GRAY These are not the Indianapolis Colts of 2007, 2008, or 2009 and when you create opportunities you have to cash on them. The Washington Washington Football Team could not find a way to take full advantage of the chances created by the special teams and defense and fell 27-24 on a […]
BY MARK F. GRAY There is finally some merit to the Washington Washington Football Team playing in FedEx Field. Their defense has taken the theory of shipping property to a new level this year with a punishing physical style that has led to consecutive victories with injured opponents in their wake. They will be pushed […]
By Mark F. Gray For a team that remains a work in progress, the challenges for the Washington Washington Football Team get tougher this week against the Green Bay Packers without Clinton Portis in the lineup. For all his drama, antics, and sometimes crass statements on his radio show, the Burgundy and Gold are still […]
In the end this game should have never come down overtime and certainly should not have ended with a 30 – 27 loss to the Houston Texans. The difference between the Burgundy & Gold at 2-0 instead of 1-1 is they still have not learned to deliver the knockout blow when the opposition is on […]
It could be a smoke screen or just a cautious assessment of his quarterback’s health, but Mike Shanahan says he’s not certain Donovan McNabb will be available for the Washington Washington Football Team’s season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. “I really don’t know for sure,” Shanahan said Sunday. “That’s why it’s day by day. We’ll […]
By Mark F. Gray If there is one thing to be learned from last week’s rout at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens it is that the Burgundy & Gold are far from the juggernaut they looked like against the Buffalo Bills. However, the Ravens are not 20 points better than their first team either. […]
After recently departing the front office of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Doug Williams has now found a new home. On Tuesday it was announced that Williams will serve as the general manger of United Football League’s new expansion team in Norfolk, Va. “For me, it’d be a blessing,” Williams, MVP of Super Bowl XXII with […]
By Mark F. Gray Now that the two headed monster which is the braintrust of the Burgundy has reduced the once proud franchise to laughing stock of the NFL, they are insulting the intelligence of the fans. Taking away the play calling responsibilities from Jim Zorn and giving them to Sherman Lewis is a scapegoat […]
Forget the tradition and the glory years. There is a climate of failure that permeates this organization and after years of tropical storms Sunday’s loss was the Burgundy and Gold’s Hurricane Katrina. While Jim Zorn is clearly a deer in headlights as an NFL head coach, he is not solely to blame the team’s collapse. […]
After their feeble offensive performance against the Baltimore Ravens it is put up or shut up time already for the Burgundy and Gold when the Pittsburgh Steelers visit FedEx Field Saturday night. Four quarters into the NFL’s preseason is by no means a reason to throw in the towel. However, if Jim Zorn and his […]
