Washington Redskins Betting Online

People betting on the Redskins in 2007 had a pretty good surprise when Washington had a last minute surge and went from a 5-7 record to a 9-7 one. There were a few major factors that aided the Redskins in winning those last four games. One of the main factors was the fantastic performance of quarterback Todd Collins and the coaches Joe Gibbs, Al Saunders and Greg Williams. The other factor was the amazing way the team dealt with the death of one of safety Sean Taylor.

But even with this better than expected performance, the team received an overhauling of coaches, including the positioning of Jim Zorn as new head coach. The question every NFL football betting fan is asking now is; will this aging team be able to pull off an NFC East Championship with new, unproven coaches?

The Redskins quarterback, Jason Campbell is someone who has never been able to set into a single offensive scheme. During his 8 years in football, he has had to deal with 7 different offense coordinators and strategies. What is worse, despite his hard work and the promise he shows, there is no guarantee Zorn will choose him for the job of starting quarterback, but he at least is certainly the favorite.

In terms of defense, the Redskins defensive line coach did an amazing job over the last 4 years, which rightfully earned him the title of defensive coordinator for this 2008-2009 NFL Football betting Season. But he will have a hard time this year, trying to lead a heavily aged defensive line.

Looking into the Redskins’ schedule makes things look even bleaker. The Washington Redskins are faced with the hardest schedule in an already tough division. With their first 5 weeks of the season spent in 3 different places, then 3 games at home and another 4 on the road including a couple of West Coast games. All in all, if you are going to be betting the Washington Redskins, you better find some good odds and a good line, because this team will need it.
