Another tribute for Taylor

I saw this story floating across the news wires today and thought this was a pretty cool tribute.

Similar to what Major League Baseball did to honor Jackie Robinson this past year, Skins Pro Bowlers Chris Cooley and Chris Samuels will wear No. 21 to honor the late Sean Taylor at this year's Pro Bowl. It's a fitting tribute since Taylor is the first person voted to an All-Star team since 1986, and it should be fun if for nothing more than to see DL flattened by OL.

On the coaching front, it seems Jim Fassel is still considered one of the front runners for the coaching position but there is activity on the OC front as the team interviewed Seattle QB Coach Jim Zorn for the position.

Regardless of how this all plays out, we should at least be a different team offensively in '08.

Game 1: Redskins vs. Dolphins

Miami at Washington

1 p.m. at FedEx Field

It's the first week of the season and I'm already having trouble keeping up so this will be a streamlined post.

The games finally count so now we get to see what the Skins look like with guys like Clinton Portis, Marcus Washington, and Chris Samuels returning to the lineup this team looks good on paper. But then again it seems like they always look good on paper so hopefully this team will translate well to the field.

Hail to the Redskins.
