Recap of Redskins 2011 Season in Picture Form

by Kevin Ewoldt on Jan 6, 2012 12:00 PM EST in Redskins Recaps

For those that follow @HogsHaven on twitter, you're already aware that I change my profile picture each week based on a key moment of the game (usually comical). Well, here they all are for 2011 (click each picture to enlarge). Here's the 2010 post if you feel like reliving Shanny's first year. Special thanks to DC Sports Bog and his Best/Worst posts for helping remember some of the ~~painful~~ story lines.

2011 REGULAR SEASON
DATE	OPPONENT	SCORE	TWITPIC
9/11	VS Giants	W 28-14	What a debut for the rookie. 5 tackles and an INT for a game clinching TD.
9/18	VS Cardinals	W 22-21	One of the best photos ever.
9/26	@ Cowboys	L 18-16	A game we should have won. I really want to see more Rob Jackson. The guy is a play maker.

10/2	@ Rams	W 17-10	Ryan Torain had a huge day rushing. Who would have predicted at this point he would end up getting cut?
10/16	VS Eagles	L 20-13	The 1-4 Eagles vs the 3-1 Redskins. Hope vanished fast. In this game we lost Kory for the year. Cooley broke his finger. Trent Williams sprained his ankle. Had a delay of game attempting a 51 yard field goal. Rex had 4 INTs with a 23.7 QB rating. The Donte Stallworth drop on the long Beck bomb. Fans were chanting "We Want Beck!" Click picture to enlarge...it's quite comical.
10/23	@ Carolina	L 33-20	I'm guessing this play didn't end well. Panthers were 32nd ranked rush D, which showed until Tim Hightower was lost for the year. Moss also broke his hand. Beck's first drive included batted pass, sack, fumble, and near INT. It didn't help our starting WRs each had drops in the game. Beck also got sacked on 4th and 1. Image via (Bob Leverone - AP)
10/30	@ Bills	L 23-0	The Beck era we all asked for. First shut out in Shanahan's career.
11/6	VS 49ers	L 19-11	. Yep, we stink. Although, Gano broke franchise record with a 59 yard FG and Helu broke Art Monk's reception record with 14 ~~screen passes~~ receptions.
11/13	@ Dolphins	L 20-9	Back to the Grossman era. Hankerson came on the scene with 106 yards before getting injured. Grossman with that horrible red zone INT. Dallas Week starts...
11/20	VS Cowgirls	L 27-24	I can only show positive pictures even when losing to the Cowboys. DHall breaks my heart again.
11/27	@ Seahawks	W 23-17	The emergence of Roy Helu... And a fantastic long bomb TD catch by Armstrong.
12/04	VS Jets	L 34-19	Tough pill to swallow with the news of Fred Davis and Trent Williams. I decided to enhance Fred's TD celebration.
12/11	VS Patriots	L 34-27	It's clear the Redskins are not used to scoring TDs. Gaffney misfires on the Landover Leap. Skins had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds but Moss' batted catch on 2-yard line turned into an INT.
12/18	@ Giants	W 23-10	Somehow, the Redskins win...in NY. Eat it Antrel Rolle.
12/24	VS Vikings	L 33-26	The emergency of the Rolls Royster. If I was Evan, this would be a mural on my basement wall.
1/1	@ Eagles	L 34-10	I had to end my season on a positive note, and London Fletcher deserves it with all his hard work and Pro Bowl snubbing. He dominated Urlacher in almost every category, yet the Chicago Bear still got the nod.

I see that kind of thing constantly.

And it’s not even only when in DC or Baltimore. I saw a guy doing that at the grocery store checkout like two weeks ago.

I really wish you would have just blacked out the Beck games

Just another crappy season.

I see it as more cushion for the pushin'

When Ken predicts 10-6 for a fourth year in a row you’ll feel better.

one of these days

I always celebrate when an undefeated team goes down. I’m still hoping out hope the skins somehow are the first team to ever go 19-0.

I'd settle for 19-13 over the next two years

I just keep getting the feeling that the Redskins will go crazy during the draft and give up whatever to get one of the top 2 QBs.

Like the feeling you had we were drafting Richardson yesterday?

I think if you go to the doctor you’ll find that your feelings are just gas and constipation in reality

I make sure I get a lot of fiber and a cup of coffee per day. That can't be the problem.

If that happens

then we’re doomed.

by SkinsOsTerps on Jan 6, 2012 12:52 PM EST up reply actions

i tend to agree, but i also have the same feeling that we will make sure to get Luck or RB3 in the draft this year

Shanny may be in charge with “free reign” but there can be no stopping Danny Boy’s urge to grab his wallet and start dishing out cash to ensure he gets his guy

You mean a third young RB to go with Helu and Rolls?

by horatius on Jan 6, 2012 4:20 PM EST up reply actions

The only team that really is going to possibly draft RGIII is the browns. I don’t think they pull the trigger on him there, i think they like colt mccoy to much. The dolphins could trade up but i doubt it they have something to build on with Moore. Seahawks would have to give up WAY to much to move that far up. They have way to many holes, they aren’t a qb away from making the playoffs and won’t sell the farm. The funny thing is Shanny could pass on RGIII, just like he did last year with Gabbert, trade back, pick up additional slots, and draft his man Tannehill.

But besides the draft it was great riding that first part of the season to a 3-1 record. It felt good sitting at the bar with the wife drinking some beer and getting excited finally about the future and a possibility of playoffs. That is until our depth showed how bad it was and that this is still a young team in a system that they are only going to get better in. These guys are buying in to Shanny.
