Recap of Redskins 2010 Season in Picture Form

by Kevin Ewoldt on Jan 5, 2011 10:45 AM EST in Redskins Analysis

For those that follow @HogsHaven on twitter, you're already aware that I change my picture each week based on a key moment of the game (usually comical). Well, here they all are for 2010 (click each picture to enlarge):

2010 REGULAR SEASON
DATE	OPPONENT	SCORE	TWITPIC
9/12	VS Cowboys	W 13 - 7	Alex Barron's holding penalty on the final play of the game negates a Romo passing touchdown. Game over.
9/19	VS Texans	L 27 - 30	Clinton Portis absolutely blows up Eugune Wilson on a downfield block. Andre Johnson's end-zone leap TD over Reed Doughty sent the game to OT and Redskins lose.
9/26	@ Rams	L 16 - 30	Portis' reaction after getting benched for falling down untouched on a long run. That of course led to our Portis Photoshop contest.

10/3	@ Eagles	W 17 - 12	McNabb wins his 1st game back in Philly with a 60.2 QB rating and help from the Redskins secondary who sandwiched Michael Vick's rib cage.
10/10	VS Packers	W 16 - 13	Aaron Rodgers got battered this game as the Redskins concussed him on the final play of the game and knocked out Jeremiah Finley early in the first half.
10/17	VS Colts	L 24 - 27	How? How did Carlos Rogers drop this ball?? (it's worth clicking this one for a zoom)
10/24	@ Bears	W@ 17@ -@ 14	What a week for Redskins fans. DHall's jersey goes to the Hall of Fame for his 4 INT performance and Romo's season gets ended on prime-time TV.
10/31	@ Lions	L 25 - 37	Benchgate occurs while we watch Rex Grossman get sack/fumble/TD'd in the final 2 min of the game. "Cardiovascular endurance" enters Redskins history. Brandon Banks scores his first TD.
11/15	VS Eagles	L 28 - 59	The Monday Night Massacre where the Eagles were up 28-0 at the end of the 1st quarter. Vick got 100+ pts in every fantasy league & Haynesworth's career in DC was summed up in 1 animated gif.
11/21	@ Titans	W 19 - 16	On the week of the 3-year anny of Sean Taylor's death, the Redskins knock out VYoung and a hapless Titans team.
11/28	VS Vikings	L 13 - 17	Perry Riley's block in the back negates a Brandon Banks TD. Banks was the only spark this day, well, except for Brett Favre who scrambled 10 yards for the game clenching first down.
12/5	@ Giants	L 7 - 31	Giants steamroll the Redskins. Brandon Jacobs ran for 103 yards on 8 carries. A. Bradshaw had 97 yards.
12/12	VS Bucs	L 16 - 17	Oh Gano. I mean oh, Hunter Smith. Redskins lose on XP to send the game to OT. Bucs' game winning score came with the help from this hold on Rak. McNabb gets benched for good despite game-tying drive.
12/19	@ Cowboys	L 30 - 33	The matchup everyone anticipated. Rex Grossman vs Jon Kitna. sigh. Grossman has a big day negated by Santana Moss' late 4Q drop, which for sure would have been a game-winning TD.
12/26	@ Jaguars	W 20 - 17	Holy f'n sh*t. Carlos caught one. Redskins shock the Jags dampening their playoff chances.
1/2	VS Giants	L 14 - 17	The facial reaction of most Redskins fans watching Rex throw moonball passes all over the field and DHall getting burned for the longest TD against in almost 20 years. SEASON OVER. 6-10. 3rd straight year last place in the NFC East.

This is great Kevin!

Awesome work, it really shows how close most of our games were too.

Games that are close

Have been for the past 10yrs lol.

I'm worried about the beer supply. After this case, and the other case, there's only one case left- Barney Gumble

You and O.C.C. from BTB lead SB Nation in post premises that I steal. This one will be added to your list.

You better get working on it b/c your season is about to be over...

We’ll see soon enough, I guess. But for now, it feels good to have gotten this far with an absurdly young team.

Sweet

I looked forward to your changing pics every week to pretty much sum up the game

great pics Kevin,

but you could have evened out the positive with the negative just a little bit, throw us a bone (or is that Kens job?) A pic of D-Halls td against Dallas, a shot of Torrain running harder than any Redskin in many years. Maybe something showing the potential for the future? Santana had one the best years of his career, Banks has us all a bit excited, and this AA kid made some waves….Love the Shanahan pic.

Yea, that's Ken's job to put whip cream & cherry on a steaming pile of crap. (joking)

but you could have evened out the positive with the negative just a little bit

Wouldn’t that mean we’re an 8-8 team, then? Off-season posts we have are positive…even from me. I’m already scouting the 2011 free agents at every position.

No Free Agents with character issues please.

Is that plain squatting so that Danny doesn't need a ladder?

Nice Job

But we really have to get of the “Stop Hold Orakpo” wagon because when he’s not getting held he isn’t sacking QB’s, batting passes down, or stuffing the run.

I hope he makes the next step in his 3rd season.

I had the same aspirations for Laron but now I can’t wait to see what kind kind of trade bait he can muster.

Holding

by Elaw6 on Jan 5, 2011 8:19 PM EST up reply actions

agreed

Lots of blogs posts the still shots of Orakpo getting held & bitch, but the fact is Rak isn’t getting it done on other plays. After talking to Charles Mann about why that was, I stopped defending the holds.

Yeah, You can't always come off the edge.

What makes Demarcus Ware and Clay Matthews elite pass rushers are their ability to work with their hands, use some spin moves, and use inside moves. He needs to really dedicate himself this offseason and learn some of those moves if he wants to be considered a Premier pass rusher in this league because right now he’s really good, but he’s not great.
