Redskins Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Jim Zorn is disappointed the Redskins aren't in the playoffs, especially because Washington started the season 4-1 and was 6-2 at midseason. But the first-year coach said just making the playoffs isn't good enough.

"I want to coach a team that is a playoff team, not just a team that gets to the playoffs," Zorn said in his season wrap-up press conference. "I want these guys to be perennial. I don't want it to be a question of, 'Gosh, are we going to make it?' I want us to say, 'Where are we going to be seeded?' But we've got a lot of work to do to get to that point."

With Green Bay, Dallas and Seattle failing to qualify for postseason, the only NFC team that fits Zorn's description is the defending champion New York Giants, who dispatched the Redskins with relative ease...

Singletary retained by 49ers after last-second win (AP)

San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Singletary waves to fans after the 49ers defeated the Washington Redskins 27-24 in an NFL football game in San Francisco, Sunday, Dec. 28, 2008.

Coach Mike Singletary didn't have to beat the Washington Redskins to lose his interim tag with the San Francisco 49ers. He would have kept his job even if Joe Nedney's game-ending field goal hadn't sneaked between the uprights. Yet Singletary just wouldn't have felt as much pride in his shiny new title without the 27-24 victory Sunday, which capped the 49ers' remarkable late-season surge: five wins...
