The Washington Redskins don't have much going well for them this season (see: the current state of stadium signage). But, they have at least had a few bright moments on the year -- including wins over Tampa Bay and St. Louis!Or, if you want to be less sarcastic, the awesomeness that is Hunter Smith, punter, scoring touchdowns on fake kicks.
Sunday, as the 'Skins struggled against comprehending football and/or guarding Brandon Marshall, Smith was the bright spot again, taking a fake field goal and heaving it for a TD pass. I might add it was a pretty freaking awesome pass, too. Scope the vid, via Fansided, after the jump.
"It's not the element of surprise we were going for," said Smith, who practiced the play only three times because a groin injury kept him out. "We had a strategy. We were trying to scheme against them, and it worked.
"There was a moment when you stand up and you're in shotgun and you kind of look at the defense, and you go, 'Wow, I haven't seen this in about 12 to 14 years.' "
The 'Skins went on to beat the Broncos, 27-17, for their third win of the year.

You're correct that they only have two wins; however, they beat St Louis and TAMBA BAY...not KC!

Its evident Will Brinson hasnt watched a skins game this year. I thought the o-line did a great job againest the #3 sack D in the league.Smith WASNT the Bright spot! Nice play, but didnt that happen in the 1st half? How many yards passing did Smith have in the 2nd half? Thats the best whole game the Skins have played all year.And Gonzo 1, did you watch the Cowpies get shutdown by the 4-4 Packers? Didnt this same Bronco team beat the patties too? Own the Skins? Please,bitch! Skins go into D and do the same thing they did last year!! Big W in little d !! GO Skins!

GO SKINS. Glad to get any kind of win. Still need to make some changes for next year. Beat the Cowboys and I've got my "SUPERBOWL" for this year. "Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys".
