For weeks now, any discussion of the Redskins offensive line has been prefaced with the word "makeshift". Between guys being lost to injury and guys being shuttled from position to position in relief, there's been very little continuity on a unit that -- according to conventional NFL wisdom -- thrives on continuity. Of course, no one has particularly WANTED to see continuity in an offensive...

] So how about Levi Jones, huh? He comes in at the second-most important offensive position, and suddenly the Redskins have their highest-scoring output of the season, and their biggest margin-of-victory in the Zorn Era. "A great pick-up for us," London Fletcher said of Jones. Observations, both stupid and serious. Stupid: First post-game interview scrum of the year, and Jones shows up with...

Levi Jones, Chad Rinehart and Stephon Heyer sat together at the end of the Washington Redskins' bench with a little more than two minutes left in the game Sunday. They were smiling, basking in the adoration pouring down from the raucous FedEx Field crowd that was on its feet, ready to celebrate. Injured tight end Chris Cooley hopped over on crutches to congratulate them, as did the man who is the godfather...

Browse more photos » It was pointed out last week that I should make the disclaimer about this article very clear on the front side. These predictions assume a Redskins victory. They are meant to provide at least some relief from the serious...

A few notes today, after the third rain-soaked practice in a row: Hunter Smith said he felt good after punting in practice today, and is optimistic that he'll be able to go on Sunday; how he feels tomorrow -- a day AFTER punting -- will tell the tale. Ladell Betts was able to get involved with practice today, and is expected to be able to contribute on Sunday -- he says he's at about 75%. Head coach...

The merry-go-round that is the Washington Redskins' offensive line continued to spin Thursday, resulting in a second chance for right guard Chad Rinehart. The line already is trying to work in new left tackle Levi Jones and get right tackle D'Anthony Batiste ready in case the injured Stephon Heyer can't play Sunday against the Denver Broncos. Now Rinehart is returning after a three-game absence because...

This is what I thought I saw during yesterday's practice, and it was confirmed today: Chad Rinehart will be stepping in at right guard in relief of Will Montgomery . There were rumors of this move last week; this week it's actually happening. Rinehart spoke briefly to the media today, and -- like Levi Jones -- said more or less what you'd expect. Let's see if he hits all the same categories Jones...

Your new starting left tackle, as of this week's latest offensive line reshuffle, is Levi Jones . Jones talked to reporters yesterday and said all the things you'd expect: The "I'm Up To Speed" Thing: "I mean, any time you get into any situation, and you get more repetitions at it, you get more of a look at it, and get more practice at it you're going to feel more confident, know what...

Jason Campbell is willing to do whatever it takes to get the Washington Redskins' new left tackle prepared for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. "Even if I have to buy him a couple meals to make sure he's ready to line up and play football," Campbell said Wednesday at Redskin Park. Levi Jones is set to become the third player to start at left tackle this season - original starter...

Is anyone buying the pile of manure Vinny Cerrato is shoveling out of Washington DC? No respectable Redskins fan is, especially those who live in the nations capitol and are used to politicians lies. Cerrato uses his radio show (why he even has one is beyond comprehension) as a platform to explain his incompetencies. He used it this week to make a few statements that need to be broken down. "Jim...

Another week could bring another player into the mix at left tackle for the Washington Redskins. Signed Oct. 20 as an insurance policy after six-time Pro Bowl player Chris Samuels suffered a career-threatening neck injury, Levi Jones might make his first start at the position for the Redskins on Sunday at Atlanta. Stephon Heyer has handled the job the past two games, losses to Kansas City and Philadelphia....

It’s become the latest craze in security blogs — show how search for a celebrity or current event leads to malware through Google searches. I’ve done it myself, quite a bit . And I do think it provides a public service. But the reality is — it’s massive, it’s constant, and the search terms are all over the place. For example, there is a current blackhat run on Google...
