two guys who will play for an extended period of time are colt brennan and chase daniel. on paper the redskins defense looks stacked. albert haynesworth, carlos rogers and deanglo hall are just some of the names that highlight that group. this preseason the skins defense has four take away two interceptions and two fumble recoveries but they'll look to increase that once the regular season gets underway. >> everybody is on the same page. everybody plays the same consistency week in and week out. i mean, the sky is the limit for us. that what we're very excited about. the coaches are excited. like i said, can't wait for the regular season to begin. >> two of -- to the college ranks. saturday the terps begin their season in california taking on the 12th ranked golden bears. last year cal came to college park and the terps quarterback chris turner and company pulled off the upset. this year the senior quarterback knows that winning on the road against a quality opponent is no easy task. >> cal is a great team. it's going to be a great competition. we need to bring our a game

colt brennan is on injured reserve. chase daniel was released. the redskins enter the regular season with just jason campbell and backup todd collins on the active roster. antwaan randle el will be the emergency third-string quarterback. he played quarterback at indiana. shawn suisam won the kicker spot. last season he had the worst field goal percentage in the nfl. there were some surprises. they were local guys. edwin williams is a former terp. he makes the team because of his versatility on the offensive line. how about cornerback byron westbrook who played at dematha and division iii salisbury. he made the final 53 after two years on the skins' practice squad. marcus mason the georgetown prep grad makes the team as well. not a huge surprise. most of the talk, about the skins' decision to keep two quarterbacks on the roster. >> we just felt like we would put one on the practice squad and we needed to carry, basically, we put a tenth lineman on for that extra quarterback or you can say we put marcus mason on. there's 25 slots. and you have to g

when you are talking about cole brennan, he needs to play well. he played in all three preseason games. he has three interceptions and just one touchdown pass to show for it. the ultimate risk taker, colt won a legion of fans after his rookie year. his time in the burgundy and gold depends possibly on what he does tonight. and daniel, only action as a preseason, he was nearly flawless. poised in the pocket and passing for a pair of touchdowns. he also was a heisman trophy finalist at mist. daniel will be the first quarter off the bench in relief of jason campbell. >> you made some plays. a guy that excites you and that's good. they both have a long ways to go. they are both working extremely hard to g there. in terms of this game matters? absolutely. how they play this this game matters a great deal. >> i don't think of it like that. i guess for this organization, there is a lot riding on this game for me and colt, both. i'm going to study the defense and prepare just like i have for the past eight years. it doesn't matter what level it is. you've

colt brennan was hurt. they called it an aggravated hamstring. that may be a factor because when daniel came back he through this touchdown pass. it was his fourth touchdown pass of the preseason. all teams have to down to 53 players saturday at 4:00. the eagles were in new york to play the jets, but before the game started that the eagles got good news, that michael vick will be able to play in the third game of the season. number 27 against kansas city. he got a mixed green in new york. he continued to increase his speed. he went 7-11, and the jets win it. tennis fans, let's go to new york for the u.s. open. murray a share a plot -- maria sharapova is still advancing. downto to the phone both, where the seattle win streak, the drive, and curry hits the three. the mystics when it. portis did not play, so a lot of guys sat out, not motivated. we will see what happens when the giants played them. it is going to be a lot like last year. before taking it on, one must study it first. rushing in unprepared may prove overwhelming... with all that juicy

i want to thank john brennan, our cdc director tom freemen, an hour senate, sibelius and locke. when we saw this back in the spring, as i said, i did not want everyone to be alarmed, but i wanted them to be prepared. we often get a second, larger wave of these viruses in the fall. response plans have been put in place across the government. we will be putting the best information out there, as that situation changes we will continue to update the public. we are also making steady progress in developing a safe h1n1 flu vaccine. we set -- expect that the vaccine will begin soon. it will be voluntary but strongly recommended. for all that we do in the federal government, every american has a role to play in responding to the virus. we need state and local governments on the front lines to make antiviral medicines and vaccines available, taking the steps necessary for the health care system. we need health care providers and hospitals to prepare for an increase in health care worker load. we need families and businesses to make sure that there are plans in place if a child or co- wo

"clarence, you should come to lunch." she was sweet but very persistent. coming to lunch was one of the best things i did. it is hard to be angry or bitter at someone when you are looking them in the eye. it is a fun lunch, very little work is discussed. nine or eight people, having a wonderful lunch together. host: you can get more information about our series on line c-span.org. at 9:00 p.m. eastern we will have more with lyle benson, talking about reporters and their coverage. here at our table is michael doyle for another five to 10 minutes. virginia, but line for republicans. -- virginia, line for republicans. caller: when you compare what is happening on the court with what is happening in afghanistan, where the people prefer a strict rules of law without a matter of fairness, they prefer t

they put colt brennan on the injured reserve. >>> to college football. the terps out in california taking on the cal golden bears. the terps got down early bay couple of scores and they failed to rally. maryland falls in berkeley, california. >>> navy traveled to columbus, ohio, to take on ohio state, and the mids almost pulled off the upset. they had a chance to tie the game with under 3 minutes to go. all they needed was a two-point conversion. instead, ricky dobbss intercepted and brian roll takes it all the way back the other way for a two-point score. the buckeyes win 31-27 over navy. >>> in baseball, the nats lose again. yes, it's their eighth in a row. livan hernandez gave up six in five innings. the nationals lose to the marlins. >>> that's your sports minute. i'm dan hellie. everybody have a great day. >> it is now 6:15, 66 degrees outside. >>> next up on nbc 4, "reporter's notebook." we'll be back with all the day's news and the forecast in about 15 minutes. >>> good morning, everybody, and welcome to "reporter's notebook." i'm jim handly. we'v

colt brennan looking much better last night than in his previous three preseason games. in the fourth, it's marco mitchell looking good for a 15-yard pickup. colt, 10 of 14 for 83 yards. fourth quarter still. 24-10. redskins are down. chase daniel in to relieve brennan. keith ely. chase daniel 8 of 16 for 85 yards. this touchdown. who's he going to go to? how about the rookie out of nevada marco mitchell? third string quarterback battle up for grabs. jim zorn seems baffled by who the redskins are going to keep. >> yeah. i've got to really look at the video to makeeads or tails of the end result. chase had a nice drive. what a dve he put together at the end there. i mean colt did right at the end there, as well. that's going to be another heavily discusseded item on the docket. again, we are having this discussion probably a few hours too early. and rightly so. there's a lot of things i shouldn't say and i won't say. we all have to be in there and then we'll come to a con seven yus. >> all right. coach being vague about that third string quarterback job because he has to.

>> it looks like colt brennan could learn the number three quarterback spotnd shawn suisham the kicker spot. and you looked at the crowd there in jacksonville, there were 30,000 people there and they're making people pay regular season prices. >> but that's they're fault for going to the game. don't put more money in their pocket. >> appears that malcolm kelly has emerged as the receiver over randle el because they did spend three second round draft points on receivers because they felt they needed to update at that spot. they need a big weapon and maybe malcolm can be the guy. >> randle el, did that hurt his chances. >> i think they drafted them. randle el hasn't been roe ducttive and -- productive so i think kelly will start in week one as number two. randle el is an old veteran and he's good for the older guys but he's not a productive number two receiver so i think he will be the number two. >> and he's had a productive training camp. he may end up being the number two receiver to start. we don't know. it appears to be malcolm kelly, but i think he's suited for the number three spo

and i want to thank john brennan, our cdc director tom freeden, and secretary sebelius, napolitano, dunkin and lock for the good work they've been doing to get us ready today. when we first saw the cases of the virus back in the spring, i don't want everybody to be alarmed, but i do want everybody to be prepared. we know we usually get a second larger wave of these flu viruses in the fall. and so response plans have been put in place across all levels of government. our plans and decisions are based on the best scientific information available and as the situation changes, we will continue to update the public. and we're also making steady progress on developing a safe and effective h1n1 flu vaccine. and we expect a flu shot program will begin soon. this program will be completely voluntary. but it will be strongly recommended. for all that we do in the federal government, however, every american has a role to play in responding to this virus. we need state and local governments on the front lines to make antiviral medications and vaccines available and be ready to take whatever steps are

coal brennan trying to hold off rookie chase daniel. even though this doesn't mean anything in the win column, it makes everything to young players literally fighting for their nfl careers. >> no matter how good or bad, you never know. you don't know how much they look into it. they see what they are judging, the criteria they are judging by. it's always pressure. you never know. >> i think maybe whether they keep me or let me go. i've got to play my best and keep getting better each game. as long as i can do that, hopefully they'll keep me on. >> all right, guys, this is one of the cool things about being on the sidelines during a game. you can see chr cooley trying out a 40-yard field goal. he hasn't been good at 35 and is not good at 40, either. starters having a good time. we'll have plenty more coming up from jacksonville in a few minutes. >> a lot on the line for so many. dan, thanks. we'll see you later. >> still ahead, murder suspects who checked themselves out of the hospital. how this happened. >> plus, final resting place for

this is the result of a poor preseason by colt brennan and one outstanding quarter. the starters aren't sugar coating this one. they started turning their attention to the new york giants and some will skip the formality of tonight's game all together. albert haines worth did not make the trip. sidelined because of a tom mac issue. carlos rogers ruled out earlier this week. we can add randy thomas to that list. for first stringers, the excitement of tonight is that the preseason is all but over. >> we aren't going to play very much. we play anywhere between 4 or 6 or 7 plays. the preparation for the whole game is really not there for us. but i think we did a lot of stuff and accomplished a lot. moving forward for new york. >> the reality of the season is starting to hit us. we are trying to get healthy and get ready for the giants. >> reporter: one quick note, rinaldo will start, although daniels will get in the game. we are live from jacksonville. >> sarah, thanks. renaldo went in, we will hear from sarah tonight at 11:00. meanwhile, michael vick has been doing and

and i want to thank john brennan, our cdc director, tom friedman. and secretary sebelius, napolitano, duncan and locke for all the good work they've didn't doing. as i said, with the cases in the spring, i don't want anybody to be alarmed but i do want everybody to be prepared. we know we get a second, larger wave in the fall. so response plans have been put in place across all levels of government. our plans and decisions are based on the best scientific information available. and as the situation changes, we will continue to update the public. we're also making steady progress on developing a safe and effective h1n1 flu vaccine. and we expect a flu shot program will begin soon. this program will be completely voluntary. but it will be strongly recommended. for all that we do in the federal government, however, every american has a role to play in responding to this virus. we need the state and local governments on the front lines to make antiviral medications and vaccines available, and be ready to take whatever steps are necessary to support the

the first unit is only expected to be on the field for maybe one series and that means we'll see colt brennan and the third place spot. and the stacked redskin defense looking to build on impressive three season numbers. the team has four takeaways after two fumble recoveries. brian orakpo that the numbers carry over. >> the defense can be really good. if everybody is on the same page, everybody plays the same consistency week in and week out, the sky is the limit for us and that's what we're vieh -- very excited about, the coaches are excited and can't wait for the regular season to begin. >>> in the months leading to the u.s. open cut finals, the geral managers were locked up in who would get home advantage for the game. d.c. united won that game but they wanted the title from last year. watch this save and then the heart break. that was josh wicks who made the initial save but the ball came loose to montero. keep your eye on the goalie. watch wick. it looks like he steps on montero right there, or maybe just a good acting job. but he gets a red card and it's the end of the night for d.c. w

east coast where the president decided to convene a secure conference call with his top aide, john brennan, his principal homeland security adviser and national security staff. we're told by white house spoexsman bill burton on that call the president ordered officials to do everything they can do increase aviation security all around the country. officials say that could mean more kay main dogs and security checkpoints. it could mean officials taking a closer look at behavior, looking for people who may be acting suspiciously. obviously all this could cause more delays at airports during what has already been a very frustrating holiday travel season. but administration officials say that security is paramount, obviously, in this situation. the white house very sensitive, also, to making sure the president is on top of this situation even while he's on vacation. he's obviously been talking a lot about the economy, health care in recent weeks and months, but the president himself has said publicly and his aides repeat privately that protecting the american people is always his first priorit

we've had high-level visits by john brennan, president obama's counter terrorism advisor. a lot of discussions with the yemeni government about returning guantanamo detainees, some of whom have returned to the battlefield. one of the leaders of al qaeda in yemen is a guantanamo releasy. he may have been killed in a recent air strike. the air strike was undoubtedly done with u.s. intelligence help. there's some level of cooperation with the yemenis. the yemeni government has two civil wars going on effectively it has to deal with. it's a very poor country, a very weak central government, heavily armed population, very tribal, geographically, top graphically, looks a lot like afghanistan. it's bin laden's home country. that's where his family originates from. it's sort of a place that al qaeda finds pretty amenable to be located in. >> there's also been talk about this latest suspect being on a watch list. could you give us some idea once and for all about the difference between a watch list and a no-fly list and why he wasn't on the no-fly list? >> well, no-fly list, you kn

at that time the president started a secure conference call with two of his top aids, john brennan, his chief homeland security adviser, as well as his national security council staff. on that secure conference call, the president ordered federal officials to take all appropriate measures to increase aviation security all around the united states. officials say that could mean more canine dogs, more officials at security checkpoints monitoring behaviors, looking out for suspicious behavior. all of that could cause more delays during what has been a frustrating holiday travel season. but administration officials say security is paramount in this situation. even though the president has been spending a lot of time recently on the economy, health care, other subjects, the president himself has said publicly and his aides repeat in private that national security and protecting the american people is still the president's top priority. ed henry, cnn, honolulu. >>> we expect to learn more about this attempted attack throughout the day. we will keep you updated on that. so stay with hln for th

secretary of homeland security janet napolitano, and my counterterrorism and homeland security adviser john brennan. i asked them to keep -- continue monitoring the situation, to keep the american people and members of congress informed. here is what we know so far. on christmas day northwest airlines flight 253 was en route from amsterdam, netherlands, to detroit. as the plane made its final approach to detroit metropolitan airport, a passenger allegedly tried to ignite an explosive device on his body setting off a fire. thanks to the quick and heroic actions of passengers and crew, the suspect was immediately subdued. the fire was put out, and the plane landed safely. the suspect is now in custody and has been charged with attempting to destroy an aircraft. a full investigation has been launched into this attempted act of terrorism and we will not rest until we find all who were involved and hold them accountable. this was a serious reminder of the dangers that we face and the nature of those who threaten our homeland. had the suspect succeeded in bringing down that plane, it could have killed ne

he got all of his updates via a secure conference call from his chief counterterrorism officer, john brennan from washington, and then the highest level national security aid he has in hawaii, dennis mcdonough, chief of staff for the national security council, and they were getting a lot of updates, and almost all of the updates, just like all of the leaks that we're seeing in print reports and reports today are coming from the interrogation process of the suspect himself. it appears that the suspect himself may have claimed al qaeda ties and the suspect himself that may have claimed some of these things. and so, that's why you see the government, while saying this was an attempted act of terrorism, they're not confirming anything else because they have to investigate to see, you know, is this guy just saying these things about al qaeda, and you know, possibly -- there's been some reports that he may have traveled to yemen, things like that. is he just saying this or can they confirm it via other ties? and i think that that's the next level of this investigation. as far as the terrorism aspe

. >> john brennan spent the last week looking at whether the databases have been used effectively. abdul muttallab is one of half a million names on the list but that didn't flag him for extra screening. california senator diane feinstein said in a letter to president obama said the u.s. should deny visas to anyone who is reasonably believed to be a part of, acting on behalf or part of a terrorist organization. secretary of state hillary clinton has reportedly ordered everyone on the data base to be checked for vees saz. the former national security advisor elliott abrams says the state state department should not be granting visas. >> protection of our borders is the job of homeland security. that's why we created that department. >> still, some question janet napolitano's assurances that after the bombing attempt that proper procedures were followed. >> within an hour, all 198 flights in the air had been notified. >> there may have been that many flights inbound from europe but that's a fraction of the planes in the air. >> what this does for the captain who is the in-flight secu

actually brought to the white house council and the white house segment i think so adviser, because john brennan, the white house adviser on homeland security, was actually the interim chief of an organization called the unanimous as i say corporation, a national security consulting firm that apparently did some work in had consulting on the creation of the nctc, the national counterterrorism center, that is so much in the news in the last days. if you remember, chris, it was after 9/11, and after that high-profile 9/11 commission report, a series of hearings and then recommendations and a big fight in congress to restructure this nation's intelligence community, and create, among other things, the nctc, and the director of national intelligence. and now a lot of people are saying, wait a minute, we had this argument five, six, seven years ago about a failure to connect the dots. about a failure to share information on the part of national security agency. the cia. the state department. which should have had a notification many people believe when his father, the suspect's father, approached the

one says that brennan has a horse in the race because he basically put together the national counter-terrorism center, the agency that manages watch lists. some are questioning his objectivity. rick: we are now learning that there were various pieces of information, things that we knew, that our federal agency knew about abdulmutallab said they had collected on him prior to that plot. what exactly did they know? >> we know that in august intelligence officials picked up the phone the intercepts from al qaeda in yemen discussing a plot involving somebody they called it the nigerian. in november, the suspect's father went to the u.s. embassy in nigeria's saying he was worried what his sons extreme religious views, he might be in yemen. the cia ever could desk was preparing a report on the suspect but did not send it to the nctc because they were waiting for pictures of the suspect. apparently those phone calls about the nigerian from yemen did not get linked to the information that the cia had from nigeria. rick: it should not come as a surprise to anybody, but there is a lot of finger-pointing

back with our panel, christine brennan, howard bragman and roland martin. christine, in terms of the sponsors, there is, you know, a number of sponsors said they're sticking with him. a couple others have not really said what they're going to do. i know you contacted a couple of them. they didn't really respond to you. it's interesting, ifs just in an airport today. tiger woods is all over the airport in those accenture ads. where do you think this goes from here? i mean, what do you think indefinitely means for tiger woods? >> well, indefinitely, that's a great question. i wrote in my column six months to a year is what he should do, i thought that yesterday. and i know that sounds like a lot, but now it seems, anderson, that tiger has, you know, just a beautiful window, this statement into what tiger and his team are thinking. for him to do this, this is so extraordinary to leave golf and to focus on his family, which i think is a good idea. it shows us how devastated he is, how remarkable this is. as far as the ads and the sponsors, it could well be that

i spoke about that and a bit more earlier to night with christine brennan of usa today. we have learned, christine, that his wife actually apparently was up, though. she heard the crash inside the house. came outside, used a golf club, somewhat ironically, to help get him out of the vehicle, break a window. do we know what was happening with them beforehand? had she been up or just heard the crash and it woke her up? >> erica, we don't know. i think that's the one things that surprising, several surprising aspects to this story, of course, on a slow "newsday." one of the things is tiger woods is controlling of his image as anyone on the planet. not just athlete, anyone in our culture. i mean this guy guards his image, his website, everything about him, it has been controlled from the get go. from when he said hello world as a young new pro which is part of the nike campaign in the mid 1990s. this is so uncharacteristic to have this kind of thing for a guy who never colors outside the lines. i think that's the part. i think tiger will be giving us answers, erica, simply b
