From John Keim:
@john_keim: Seahawks CB Richard Sherman on RG3: "I'm sure if he were 100 % it would have been a different game."

Today I learned RG3 has a little bit of Favre in him, where he will keep playing even if he is hurt, even if it may seem to be a negative for the team. Also the defense although it has improved will by no measure win the Redskins games. At least not yet. It will keep the score in the low 20's but will not be good enough to win games if the offense is not clicking. 224 yards on 6.1 YPC will not win a lot of games, especially in the playoffs.
Redskins were not going to win this game unless RG3 was completely healthy. Cousins would not have made that much of an impact. Cousins definitely would not have taken the team beyond this round if they had won. The seahawks was the best defense the skins played and without a completely healthy RG3, the seahawks proved to be the better defense, offense and team. Now the Redskins need to take a page from the seahawk playbook and improve their defense through key underrated free agent signings and drafting physical playmakers in the secondary.
In his rookie season, rg3 left 3 games due to injury and missed another entirely. Which gives me 2 thoughts:
1) maybe we shouldn't have drafted such an injury prone quarterback
2) cousins isn't going anywhere

The problem is, he's not the best option when he's hurt. That's why you can't rely on players to tell you the truth. After it was evident he was hurting bad and his game was severely affected by it, he should have been pulled. This isn't even a 2nd guessing. At least at the half he should have came out with Cousins.
Exactly. I'm happy as hell he's our QB but I don't care how he said he felt. It was obvious he was hurting and wasn't his usual self after limping back on the field late in the first quarter. When Cousins finally did get in the game, the receivers, except for Santana, suddenly got butter fingers. Thats why as one poster put it, "He didn't exactly light it up." Cousins did his part, the receivers didn't. Of course I'm happy about our future. I'm freakin' ecstatic! But Cousins has proven his worth and leaving RG3 in was a mistake. And I thought it was obvious during the game, obvious. HTTR!

I see TW getting fined in the near future.

Am I a bad person for liking Trent more after seeing that? Though he went after the wrong guy. Should have gone after Kam Chancellor.

From what I saw today Wilson and RG3 are pretty similar. Wilson is better than I thought he was.

I think Rookie of the Year should go to either him or RG3. Luck to me was clearly behind both of them.

Nope. Glad Trent bitch slapped him.
