Just Be Koz
Brian Kozlowski - the enternal H-back - is here today for a workout along with a few other guys. The Skins have no backup fullbacks after cutting Brian Bell from the practice squad, and with Mike Sellers missing practice with the back injury he suffered in Wed. practice, they might...

Injury Update
Skins expect most of the guys listed in the previous post to be back for Sunday, with Thomas, Thrash and Taylor obvious exceptions. Randy said he does not have an exact idea in mind for when he will begin doing more than individual work and when he can engage fully...

Good News: Randy Thomas Doing Some Limited Work; Bad News: 8 Guys Not Practicing
Randy is back on the practice field for the first time since tearing his triceps in Week 2. He told me before practice that he would be doing mostly light work, nothing really engaging his upper body yet. "Mostly, just footwoork, stuff like that," he said. "It's mostly just getting...

Receiver Added to the Mix
Jasno is in the midst of an interview, so I'll tell you this bit of news: The Redskins have signed wide receiver Anthony Mix, a familiar face for quarterback Jason Campbell from their days at Auburn. As a junior in 2004, Mix played in 13 games, starting four with Campbell,...

Monday Night H-Back (Sorry)
Sorry this is going up so late. Had a hellish travel day. All kinds of bedlam at the Dallas airport today. But the good thing was, if you have to be feeling like death at 6 am waiting for a plane, always good to have Miracle Mike Wise nearby...

Sometimes a Loss Feels Like a Win
Okay, so it really doesn't. But yesterday's loss to the Cowboys was revealing on many levels...a lot of them (Jason Campbell) were positive and some reinforced negative things (when you base your defense on the secondary and it gets dinged up, you'd better have a pass rush...especially against Romo/T.O.) we've...

Chris Helein Speaks - Says Mort Got It Wrong
Heard back from Chris Heiien, chief of Skins PR - he says the players got every ticket they would normally get and in fact there were a few left over. He called the ESPN report "totally wrong," and said there no validity to it at all. Obviously, we can't talk...

Inactives/Ticket Fiasco?
Santana is up, so is Jimmy Farris, an indication that we'll have to see just how much Santana can do with that heel injury. Sean Taylor, David Macklin, Rick DeMulling, Kevin Sampson, Ryan Boschetti, and James Thrash are out. Leonard Davis, the big Dallas guard, missed practice much of the...

Let's Talk Skins-'Boys
Big day in sports today, eh? Of course, I'm talking about the MLS Cup at RFK. Well, okay, you caught me. I'm talking about Redskins-Cowboys. Fearless predictions, anyone? Mine is Cowboys 27-10. I just said that Olivia Manning would be a better QB than Eli; I am now eating those...
