Albert Haynesworth, the marquis name of the 2009 free agency, has signed with the Washington Redskins for a mind-boggling 7 year, 100 million dollars.  The deal likely makes him the highest paid defensive player in the league.  The 27 year old player could potentially add exactly what the team has lacked for so long — […]

With apologies to the Clash, I couldn’t think of a more appropriate question to ask right now.  Jim Zorn, onetime savior of Washington DC, is now on the ropes.  The Redskins have been in freefall since week 8 and they haven’t actually looked GOOD since they played Philly the FIRST time around.
A lot of people are […]

The Redskins fans weren’t the only thing that were all wet after last week’s game in the rain.  All the advantages the Redskins had from their early season victories are now long gone.  They’re back to being just another good-but-not-great team who’s likely to be on the outside looking in if they’re not careful this playoff […]

I had the privilege of being interviewed by Baltimore Sun reporter Childs Walker as he did research for his article about growing up as a football fan in the Baltimore-Washington Area.  You should check it out, along with a second article that includes a Redskins take on the Ravens-Redskins “rivalry” that we supposedly have.  
Great stuff.

I know we’ve been quiet here at Riggo’s Rag.  It’s hard to watch a post-season from the sidelines after such a glorious start to the season.  But time heals all wounds and we need to move on.  The Superbowl is our last day to enjoy football — REAL football — until September.  The next NFL […]

Now that New York is once again facing Washington, Riggo’s Rag was fortunate enough to guest blog on the New York Times official NFL blog “The Fifth Down.”  You can read what we had to say here.

Now that we’ve had a little time to reflect upon the season, it’s time to consider a few things. As Redskins fans, we’ve endured endless years of Norv Turner-induced mediocrity.  We went through the Shottenheimer experiment that was aborted before it even got a chance to yield any positive results.  We endured years of Steve Spurrier’s […]

Riggo’s Rag, working with the National Center for Missing and Disappointed Football Fans, has issued a Burgundy and Amber Alert for the Washington Redskins’ 2008 Playoff Hopes.  The Playoff Hopes were last seen at 10:57pm, shortly after Jason Campbell threw a touchdown pass to Antwaan Randle El to bring the Redskins to within one score of the Ravens. The Hopes are […]

Is Jason Taylor as good as gone? One and done? That’s what it looks like as of now. From Redskins Insider:
As for ends, there was some discussion about Jason Taylor possibly adding some pass rush as more of a linebacker, and there was talk about keeping him. However, his $8.5 million salary is very steep […]

As the clock ticked away to yet another embarrassing defeat the look on Coach Jim Zorn’s face was priceless. It was a look of disgust, a look of embarrassment, a look of “is this really happening?”  Yes coach it is and the love fest for you is long gone.  Now as the Redskins deal with […]
