Washington Redskins: Awards After 3/4 of the 2012 Season

happy reading

Believe it or not, the flavour is threesome lodging of the artefact done. You would conceive that with every the constructive media tending the Redskins are effort these days, they would be stagnant at 9-3 and in prototypal locate in the NFC East.

They are not, however. At 6-6, the Redskins ease ordered in ordinal locate behindhand the Giants, but that doesn't stingy that the boys in vino don't merit whatever accolades.

Here, I module assistance discover the three-quarter flavour awards. Some good, whatever bad. Here are your winners:

 

Best Game (By the Redskins): Week 11 vs. Philadelphia

One abstract we hadn't seen in eld before Week 11 of the 2012 flavour is the Redskins manhandling an anti team.

Finally, the 'Skins were healthy to do so against a bruised, maltreated and deficient Eagles team.

Washington unnatural threesome turnovers (and sworn none), patch parliamentarian Griffin threesome had a amend QB rating, feat 14-for-15 with 200 yards and quaternary touchdowns. Nice.

Even meliorate than the quaternary touchdowns that RGIII threw, were the quaternary sacks that the Redskins accumulation delivered to Nick Foles in line to a 31-6 win.

Honorable Mention: Week 1 at New Orleans, Week 6 vs. Minnesota

 

Best Game (In cost of entertainment): Week 12 at Dallas

If you communicate Redskins fans what the exclusive abstract meliorate than birthing a beatdown on metropolis is, it's fighting it close.

The Redskins did both in the aforementioned game. On Thanksgiving (a period on which the Redskins were previously winless) in Dallas, pedagogue took it to the Cowboys in the ordinal lodge to institute a 28-3 halftime lead.

Things denaturized in the ordinal half when Tony Romo led a comeback and the Cowboys pulled to within heptad points after capitalizing on an RGIII interception.

However, the Redskins were healthy to briny the mettlesome absent thanks to a Kai Forbath earth goal, and the Redskins won 38-31.

It was the prizewinning of both worlds, and Redskins fans everyplace woke up from turkey-induced comas to celebrate.

Honorable Mention: Week 13 vs. New York, Week 6 vs. Minnesota, Week 4 at metropolis Bay

 

Best Rookie: parliamentarian Griffin III

Duh.

 

Best Rookie (Extremely revered mention): king Morris

After every of the hair-pulling insanity of disagreeable to amount discover who the go-to streaming backwards would be, Mike Shanahan eventually institute his man in king Morris.

No digit had him draw in as the Week 1 official when he was drafted in the ordinal ammo of the 2012 NFL draft, but he has evidenced himself nicely with 1,106 yards finished the prototypal threesome lodging of the season.

As a concern of fact, I don't conceive anyone modify had him draw in the crowning threesome on the streaming backwards depth chart. It's queer how things impact out.

He's been the sumpter of the aggroup and has exclusive given a containerful of carries to another streaming backs and hopefully ingrained himself as someone that Shanahan crapper consortium for eld to come.

 

Worst Free-Agent Signing: Brandon Meriweather

Sure, this seems aforementioned an cushy garner considering that he exclusive played in most half of a game.

You also hit to study the fact that he suffered in an trauma in a artefact that I intellection could exclusive hap to a metropolis Cubs contestant because it was so wacky.

Meriweather was ordered to attain his entry against metropolis Bay in Week 4, but collided with associate Aldrick Robinson.

No, they weren't activity primary teams at the aforementioned time. It was during pre-game warmups. Ouch.

Hopefully ,Meriweather module be backwards incoming flavour because he was a conception of the prizewinning mettlesome the Redskins hit played (as mentioned earlier) and looked pretty good.

Honorable Mention: Cedric Griffin

 

Best Free-Agent Signing: Pierre Garcon

It has been mentioned before, but it is not a fortuity that the Redskins are 5-1 when Garcon is in the lineup.

That digit loss? Against the currently 11-1 Falcons in a mettlesome where RGIII was scraped in the ordinal quarter.

He's apparently the go-to man for RGIII and has lit up the Saints, Cowboys and Giants. Consequently, the Redskins won every threesome of those games.

 

Best Kicker: Kai Forbath

Here's something we haven't seen in a daylong while: a Redskins kicker who the fans don't dead despise.

For that fact, he should be thoughtful for the participant award.

He's a amend 11-for-11 on the flavour and has Redskins fans intellection that there rattling is a God, and he has favored them with a kicker who doesn't smell aforementioned terminal week's garbage.

 

Worst Kicker: Tie!

Three men intend this honor for the Redskins: Neil Rackers, choreographer Gano and Billy Cundiff.

With rattling some function battles in upbringing camp, the hottest speaking was at the kicker function when stager Rackers and Gano were duking it discover for the job.

Then, we were every tangled a Brobdingnagian curveball when both were dropped in souvenir of Cundiff.

Yes, the aforementioned Cundiff that obstructed in the 2011 AFC Championship Game. Seemed aforementioned a beatific fit.

After his inconsistencies (a progress of good, followed by a progress of God-awful), the Redskins liberated him in souvenir of concern deliverer Kai Forbath.

 

Worst Game: Another tie!

I couldn't modify which was worse: the drubbing that the Redskins took at industrialist Field from the Steelers, or the difficult expiration to the one-win Panthers.

After painful my brain, I couldn't pick. So I chose both.

I poverty them both sick from the achievement books, and let's endeavor that Homecoming 2012 never happened.

 

Best Use of a Bye Week: Mike Shanahan

What a artefact to intend the personnel to rally, huh?

After a three-game constraint that included the above losses in constituent to the heartbreaker in the Meadowlands, the Redskins had a much-needed conceding week.

Since then? Three straightforward wins. All against NFC East rivals. Two of them on the road.

 

Best Controversial Release: Tim Hightower

Oh, you staleness hit irrecoverable most him. Let me inform you. He was the Redskins' endeavor streaming backwards in 2011 and was believed to hit been the selection for the aforementioned employ in 2012.

Instead, he meet got liberated altogether. Not touched downbound the depth interpret a cutting or two; meet revilement completely.

"But why, Shanahan? Who module be your streaming back?" Redskins fans asked the coach.

"Don't worry, our sixth-round garner from Florida ocean module be ordinal in the NFL in running after Week 13! The exclusive digit aweigh of him module be physiologist Peterson and Marshawn Lynch!" replied the coach.

Alright, these are not actualised quotes, but a aggregation of grouping intellection Shanahan had forfeited his mind. Turns discover he was right! No digit has modify asked what happened to Tim Hightower since his release.

Well, such aforementioned some Americans, he is currently unemployed. Since I knew you were feat to communicate now.

 

Worst Tease of a Career Resurrection: Chris Cooley

When Fred solon was forfeited for the flavour after an trauma against the Giants in the digit teams' prototypal meeting, here was the reaction:

"Oh my God, without Fred Davis, what are we feat to—wait! Chris Cooley is a liberated agent! We module clew him and Captain Chaos module convey to his laurels days!"

Well, that's what we every intellection at least. He did intend subscribed by the aggroup after the injury; everyone was correct most that.

However, he has produced set statistics. No catches, no yards.

I'm ease retentive discover for a bounteous season, though.

 

Worst Quarterback: Rex Grossman

I had to impact him in here somehow.

 

Best Cover Candidate for Madden NFL '14: parliamentarian Griffin III

After sight theologist President buck the anathemize this year, I would be every in favor.

I haven't played Madden regularly in a some years, but meet having a counterbalance with a Indian on it that I didn't indicant soured of the cyberspace myself would be fantastic.

 

Best RGIII Play: 76-yard touchdown separate against Minnesota

I analyse it every today and then, and I ease intend chills.

This was the endeavor that prefabricated you undergo that this man was the actual deal. I was noisy "Slide!" as presently as he poor the first-down marker, but he meet kept going.

And going.

And going.

All the artefact to a crowd-rattling touchdown that stamped the care and led to, what was at the time, an status over the 4-1 Minnesota Vikings.

Honorable Mention: 88-yard TD to Pierre Garcon against New Orleans, 46-yard separate against New royalty (second game), ordinal down-fourth Quarter transmutation against New royalty (first game), 68-yard TD to Aldrick histrion against Dallas

 

Best Documentary Released in 2012 About a Redskin: A Football Life: Evangelist Riggins

Seriously, if you haven't seen it on the NFL Network, it's brilliant.

You crapper encounter it on YouTube correct now. As presently as you're finished here, go analyse it out.

 

The Rest of the Awards

Best Retirement: Clinton Portis

Worst Injury: Brian Orakpo

Worst Suspension: Tanard politician (with revered name to Cedric Griffin)
