They have beaten the four teams that the Redskins and their fans most want to see them beat. Three division rivals in the Eagles, Cowboys and Giants followed by yesterday's win over the Ravens.

"I just jumped in. I didn’t have a sword, but that just shows my heroism," joked the rookie running back. "I’m a tough guy. I don’t need a sword to go into a sword fight. I was kicking butt. It was an epic battle and I’m glad I was part of it. It’s going down in history."

Redskins fan gives himself an Indian name, gets DeAngelo Hall’s helmet
Most of the team had left the field and the frenzy at the tunnel had died down, when I see DeAngelo Hall walking towards the tunnel. I just give him a standing ovation and tell him what a great game he had. He simply looked up at me and tossed me his helmet.
