| (MySportsbook) - The Detroit Lions ended an ugly chapter in their history with last week's win over the Washington Redskins. Now, the trick for Jim Schwartz and company will be to keep the good times rolling on the road. Detroit will travel to Soldier Field for a matchup with the longtime division rival Bears, with an eye toward putting another long-standing losing streak to rest. The Lions have lost 13 in a row away from the Motor City since Oct. 28, 2007, when they defeated the Bears during a period that woul |

| (MySportsbook) - Change is coming to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. There's plenty of speculation that the Washington Redskins will be creating a shakeup of their own before too long. With their head coach's long-term job security coming into question, the Redskins will host an important early-season game this Sunday against a Tampa Bay team set to unveil a new quarterback. Discontent is growing in the nation's capital following Washington's 19-14 loss last weekend to a Detroit squad that was in the midst of a 19-ga |

He has two other fingers that always seem to be jammed. ``I'll have fingers like the witch on 'The Wizard of Oz' by the time I'm done playing football,'' he said. Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall is playing with four jammed fingers and can't wear his wedding ring. Denver Broncos cornerback Andre' Goodman has had two fractures and three dislocations, including a thumb knocked askew trying to intercept one of Brett Fav |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -Banged-up running back Clinton Portis will be a game-time decision for the second straight week for the Washington Redskins. Portis is nursing a bruised calf after getting kicked in the second half of last week's loss to Detroit. He's also been hindered by bone spurs in both ankles, but coach Jim Zorn said Friday the calf is the reason he feels Portis has a ``50-50'' chance of playing Sunday against Tampa Bay. Portis is off to one of the slowest starts of his career, with 183 yards on 47 |

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) -The Washington Redskins are approaching the halfway mark of the NFL's Lousy Team Tour. To their dismay, they've become one of the feature attractions themselves. After getting booed at home while barely beating a St. Louis Rams team that had lost 11 straight, the Redskins last week became the infamous answer to a trivia question when they ended the 19-game skid of the Detroit Lions. On Sunday, they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are riding a seven-game schneid and have a quarterback |

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -The Washington Redskins are switching their starting strong safety, giving Reed Doughty the job and demoting Chris Horton. Defensive coordinator Greg Blache also says Thursday there will be strategic changes when Washington (1-2) hosts Tampa Bay (0-3) this weekend, with a more ``maverick'' approach. The Redskins' defense ranks last in the NFL in third-down conversions, allowing opponents to convert 51 percent of the time. Doughty, a fourth-year player, hasn't started a game since Oct. 5 |

My job is to come in and help us get wins,'' the 23-year-old said Wednesday, looking ahead to his first NFL start against the struggling Washington Redskins. ``We are talented. We've just got to put it altogether and become one cohesive unit. ... Offense, defense, special teams. If we all become one, we'll win games and it won't just be on one guy.''
