Midseason Report

Washington Redskins (2-5)
Grade: D-minus

What they’ve done well: Nobody had an easier schedule than the Redskins, yet they have just two wins. If the Redskins couldn’t beat the Chiefs or the Lions, do they really have any chance at being competitive? Washington runs for just 93.4 yards per game, ranking 26th in the league. Embattled head coach Jim Zorn needs to get the ball to Clinton Portis more often if the Redskins have any chance of playing better.

Needs improvement: The passing game just is not good enough. The Redskins average 202.6 passing yards per game, 20th overall. Jason Campbell -- whether it's a lack of coaching or ability -- isn't getting it done. The defense allows just 283.4 yards per game and ranks 4th in the league, but it does not create big plays. The defense has a league-worst 3 interceptions.
