The Washington Redskins suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Detroit Lions in week 3 -- it might not have been the worst loss in franchise history, but it's right up there. There is no excuse in losing to the Lions really, the Washington Redskins have by far the more talented team -- the most talented teams don't always win -- sometimes the team more prepared wins. Anymore defeats by inadequate teams and the Redskins fans, front office, and head coach Jim Zorn will see their Redskins be in last place in the NFC East.
The Washington Redskins have a very tough schedule when you consider they must play the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles twice a season. If the Redskins can't beat the Detroit Lions, what chance do they have against the better teams of the league. The Redskins need wins against the Kansas City Chiefs, Tampa Bay Bucs and Oakland Raiders if they hope to even taste the top of the NFC East division.
The Redskins have QB Jason Campbell -- who hasn't developed as the franchise QB the Redskins were hoping for, yet. Campbell is already 27 years old and the most touchdown passes he threw for in a season was only 13 in 08'. Redskins fans hope he is a late bloomer or otherwise the Redskins have no future with his as QB.
In 08', Campbell did compete 62% of his pass attempts which shows he can be accurate enough, but his leadership qualities are questioned. Given that head coach Jim Zorn played quarterback in the NFL before -- one would assume Campbell would be further along in his development then he currently is. The Redskins are in a very tough division if you are a good team, if the Redskins keep playing like they have, a 6-10 season will be their destiny.
