| Ashburn, VA (MySportsbook) - The Washington Redskins are hurting on both sides of the ball as running back Clinton Portis and defensive end Albert Haynesworth sat out Wednesday's practice with injuries suffered during Sunday's crushing loss to the Detroit Lions. Portis suffered a calf injury that kept him out of the final stages of Washington's 19-14 defeat on Sunday. Head coach Jim Zorn indicated after the game that Portis was kicked in the calf.

| (MySportsbook) - Patience has not been a trademark of Daniel Snyder during the impetuous business magnate's decade-long reign as owner of the Washington Redskins, and it's probably wearing razor-thin right now. The heat under head coach Jim Zorn's already-uncomfortable seat was racheted up a few degrees after the Redskins did the unthinkable this past Sunday at Detroit's Ford Field. The lowly Lions finally put an end to the second-longest losing streak in NFL history with a 19-14 victory over Washington, a resu |

They are 0-3 this year, giving the club its worst start since it began the 1998 campaign 0-7. Thankfully, Carolina is on its bye this weekend. That should give the squad some time to work on things, as it needs to string together some wins if it wants to save the season. The Panthers will host the Washington Redskins the following Sunday. |

| (MySportsbook) - As much as Sunday's 19-14 victory over the Washington Redskins closed a chapter for the Detroit Lions, it also began a new one. The team's first win since Dec. 23, 2007, which snapped a 19-game losing streak and introduced a bright spot into what has been the darkest era in the team's long history, needs to be the start of something, not the culmination, according to first-year head coach Jim Schwartz. "We shouldn't be content with a win," said Schwartz. "There are other things we can improve o |

| Detroit, MI (MySportsbook) - Detroit's 19-game losing streak is history as the Lions got their first win in over 21 months with a 19-14 triumph over the Washington Redskins at Ford Field. The last time Detroit won a game was a 25-20 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on December 23, 2007. The team then dropped their next game at Green Bay and suffered through a humiliating 0-16 season last year, the first-ever winless campaign since the NFL went to a 16-game format. Detroit opened the 2009 season with a 45-27 |

Fans of the Detroit Lions would likely be ecstatic beyond belief with such a result. Owners of a painful 19-game losing streak, the Lions will be back at Ford Field this Sunday to take on a Washington team coming off an uninspiring win over another of the league's doormats.

Transition on the fly has been difficult, with Chuck Cecil taking over as coordinator from the departed Jim Schwartz and All-Pro interior lineman Albert Haynesworth now a member of the Washington Redskins. After the shootout with Houston last week, Tennessee is averaging an unsightly 388.5 total yards-against in two games and is an uncharacteristic minus-1 in turnover ratio. Three players have recorded at least one sack through the first two games - |
