Courtesy of a @RickMaese Tweet, we discover that Albert Haynesworth, Clinton Portis and DeAngelo Hall are all out against the Philadelphia Eagles today. Translation, the Redskins’ biggest signees are all inactive, thus rendering any hope for a close game useless and non-gratifying.
Fortunately, these are all legitimate injuries; none of the “my hamstring-I got migraines-turf toe” [...]
Maybe you wanted Clinton Portis to go down as the greatest running back in Redskins history. You wanted the hi-jinks, personalities and outspoken nature to have amounted to more than media distraction amidst bad ownership and underperformance on the field.
But the looks for both Clinton Portis and the divided perspectives on his career are coming [...]
It is impossible to make the claim that Ladell Betts is a better running back than Clinton Portis. Not only has Portis delivered the goods in Washington, but over his tenure in the NFL, he’s one of the best of all time.
So no, the calls for Portis to lose his job are unfounded based on [...]
Even with the Washington Redskins’ paltry two wins, the world’s worst owner and a heated fanbase, no one in the equation deserves Larry Johnson. Primarily because he’s as addicted to trouble as he is falling down after three yards on a carry, but moreso because the Skins’ already have a more expensive, slightly-less-psychotic version of [...]
At least you can’t fault the NFL for dishonesty with its Fantasy Football projections.

Some weeks back, I said that Washington football would rise and fall with the many moods of Clinton Portis.

Bottom line: you know that an owner is far too involved in the affairs of a football team when the team’s best player tells the truth on fan perspective. So here we go with Clinton Portis, and the beginning of the end for the Washington franchise as we know it.
“I mean, performance, as a team,” [...]
It seems so far off that Clinton Portis was a serious contender for the NFL MVP award just a season ago. Through half of a season, Portis had rushed for 995 yards, seven touchdowns, and the affection of rabid Washington football faithful.
By the time the season had concluded, Portis rushed for 100 yards in a [...]
Which Jason Campbell is the quarterback Washington football fans can check for this year? The quarterback that is maligned and halfway out of town? Or is he the second coming of Doug Williams, as Clinton Portis has so eloquently stated recently?

Is it because he’s productive? Is it because he’s willing to open his mouth and give an opinion? Maybe it’s a combination of both that makes John Riggins the latest Washington football legend to criticize current star running back Clinton Portis.
