Q & A with Ken Zampese

Quarterbacks Coach Ken Zampese spoke with reporters over the challenges of teaching a new system and working with different passers.

Offense needs diverse flow

What will Washington’s offense look like in 2020?

Mr. Smith returns to Washington

Alex Smith threw a short sideline route that felt like victory. The quarterback returned to the field for the first time since suffering a badly broken leg in Nov. 2018 that required 17 operations and nearly proved deadly because of infection. He nearly lost the leg and endured months of a ghastly metal brace.

Kerrigan on sack mark: ‘I want it'

Ryan Kerrigan heard the offseason whispers.

Defense strong across board

What will Washington’s revamped defense look like under coach Ron Rivera and defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio?

Choosing quarterbacks is never ‘comfortable'

Let me make this clear – I think that Dwayne Haskins will be the starting quarterback for the Washington Football Team. There are too many circumstances working in favor of that outcome and also too many working against any other result.

Change was offseason's constant

Wow, what an offseason.

Cancer won't stop Rivera

The diagnosis was a shot across the internet. Washington coach Ron Rivera has cancer.

Look for more vets given less preseason

Young's value is widespread

The impact Chase Young is expected to make is enormous, but it might be hard to quantify in statistical value.

Stand and Deliver

Dwayne Haskins sometimes looked more like a film maker than a quarterback over the off season. He wanted fans to see how hard he was working so a constant Twitter stream of flicks showed the second-year passer hitting deep balls to someone running in a park.

NO PRESSURE, NO DIAMOND - Redskins fans today, tomorrow, forever

There will be much to miss about the death of the Redskins name. You will be reminded of it every time you put a Sonny Jurgensen, John Riggins or Sean Taylor jersey on. You will remember your life as a Redskins fan every time you go through your closet and find some old programs, or your scrapbook to see ticket stubs.

Mitchell, Marshall intersect once more

In life and death, George Preston Marshall and Bobby Mitchell remain intertwined.

Franchise name to be retired

Hail to the . . .

Farewell to Boss Hog

Joe Bugel was yelling at the team in the gravelly voice, sparing them no mercy or curse words. The offensive line coach wanted hard work as the linemen hit the blocking sled and wanted it now.

Dark times at Redskins Park

There’s never a dull moment at Redskins Park even if it won’t be called that much longer.

5 reasons to hope

Every year, Washington Redskins fans feel things have to get better. After all, what’s worse than a 3-13 season where the defense allowed 31 points or more in half the games, prime time blowouts were common and the stands were filled with opposing fans? When the Detroit Lions outdraw locals at FedEx Field, it’s time to re-evaluate.

10 New Faces That Matter

The Washington Redskins have plenty of fresh faces in new places. That happens every year in the NFL, but especially when you were 3-13 and a new head coach takes over.

Mitchell remembered as one of the ‘greatest'

Bobby Mitchell never wanted to be remembered as the Redskins’ first African-American player when arriving in 1962.

Was draft a feel-good moment?

Young: ‘I get to be an inspiration'

First-rounder

White flag waved, Trent traded

The Redskins couldn’t take the noise anymore. They gave away a disgruntled seven-time Pro Bowl left tackle for essentially a bag of balls.

Draft offers great promise

How did you grade the Redskins 2020 NFL Draft class? Does it really matter. It’s impossible to fairly judge a draft class even two years after they are selected, never mind two weeks or months.

Breaking down the new-look roster

The Washington Redskins tried to work the entire depth chart. They added players at eight offensive positions and seven defensive ones. Only special teams’ three core players were left alone, though the team might change kick returners.
