The Redskins rallied behind undrafted rookie Stephen Heyer as a replacement when Tackle Jon Jansen went down in week 1
with a broken right ankle. Heyer went up against Jason Taylor of the Miami Dolphins, and had an amazing NFL debut.
The Redskins rallied behind Jason Fabini in week 3 while replacing Guard Randy Thomas. Thomas was placed on IR several weeks later with torn triceps.
5 Weeks ago the Redskins lost a special member of its family. Sean Taylor was murdered in his Miami home while protecting his girlfriend and 18 month old baby from 4 armed intruders.
4 days after Sean Taylor was laid to rest the Redskins played the Chicago Bears on a Thursday night game. The Redskins rallied behind Safety Reed Doughty in filling in for their missing teammate #21 Sean Taylor.
During that Thursday night game against the Chicago Bears the Redskins starting Quarterback Jason Campbell was sacked and lost for the year due to a broken kneecap. The Redskins rallied behind 12 year Veteran Quarterback Todd Collins, not only to lead the team into the Playoffs with 4 strait
victories, but by winning each of those games by 10 or more points.
Yesterday's game against the Dallas Cowboys was priceless. To see all the Cowboys playing their starters for 3 + quarters and still losing to a score of 27-6. That's a 21 point victory. 21 was Taylor's jersey number
The Redskins sealed their spot as the 6Th seed Wildcard in the 2007 NFC Playoffs.
Will there be many more chapters for this season?
Next stop Seattle.
