The Time RGIII Called A Meeting And Told His Coaches How To Coach

Over at The Undefeated, Jason Reid takes a long look at a complex question—why did Robert Griffin III fail in Washington?—and, somewhat disappointingly, operates under the theory that there can be a simple answer.

Chris Cooley Has A Whole Bunch Of Thoughts On RGIII

Four years ago today, Washington agreed to send three first-round picks and a second-rounder to St. Louis for the right to move up to draft Robert Griffin III. Today, Griffin is a free agent, and the man the Skins selected on the third day of that draft is their QB and set to make $20 million....

Washington Football Team Sues Former Player For Extra Severance Pay They Accidentally Gave Him

H.B. Blades was a sixth-round pick from Pittsburgh who played four seasons for Washington as a linebacker. The team cut him in 2011, and formally paid him $40,000 in severance pay in September 2012.

So How Will The Skins Screw Things Up With Kirk Cousins?

Dashaun Phillips Stretchered Off After Scary Head Injury

Washington cornerback Dashaun Phillips left the team’s game in Dallas against the Cowboys after going helmet to helmet with Darren McFadden on this hit. It was eerily similar to a play earlier in the game where Kyshoen Jarrett got shaken up. ...

Dexter Manley Says Black Quarterbacks Are More Mobile Because "They're Probably Used To Running From The Law"

Specifically: that black quarterbacks like to run because they...

Kirk Cousins's Enormous Boner Wastes Scoring Opportunity

Kirk Cousins responded to a week of positive coverage, for once, by committing a huge blunder.

I’ve long had this theory that the best NFL games, or at least the most entertaining ones, take place between two bad teams.
