Redskins vs Vikings Gameday thread

I'm pretty sure he was talking about Britt's report about Griffin alienating teammates

she needs a spanking for that report. for sure

Difference is Aaron and his receivers line up and can read the defense pre snap manning-like. By the time the ball snap, he already knows 8-9 of 10 times knows where the ball is going. the other times he uses his legs to step up or out of the pocket.



To me, this is RG3 biggest weakness, pre snap and pocket presence.



Forget the throws, he can make them all.


Agree 1000%. My fear is that is not so teachable but more of an innate quality hence my "rants" about Griff.

Aaron Rodgers has had a weak Oline ever since he's been in the league

Excellent point.

I'm not piling on Griff - he did a lot of good things that his major detractors missed. But he made the offensive line look worse than it really is by holding the ball.

Rodgers, Brady, and Manning have all played behind suspect OL's and done ok, because they know what RGIII has yet to learn: get the damn ball out, boy! Your back foot hits, the ball comes out, for the good ones.

RGIII can learn to be quicker.

I'll volunteer for that assignment.

Seriously, though, she seems to be standing by the report even though the local guys have said it was aimed at the media not RGIII. It would be interesting to know who her source was because, although likely wrong, I don't she was making it up out of whole cloth.

I thought winning was your bottom line?

Well except, you know, when, you know, it's not.

Fair or not, as the franchise QB, the meal ticket, Griffin is going to get some blame for losses. The INT was awful as was the 4th down incompletion at the end of the game

The awfulness of these two throws strikes me as being out of character for RGIII. In 2012, he was clutch - I just had the feeling, no matter what, RGIII could pull the game out.

I keep telling myself "He was just rusty, he was just rusty, he was just rusty ..."

I have never felt Griff was a diva or any sort of distraction. Seems to me to be a young kid with a great work ethic and a will to win. Do you think there is any truth to this crap about him alienating teammates?

It's rare to be liked by everybody on the team. Usually the guys who are most universally liked are the most irrelevant players on the roster. So to that end, I know that a few players and others in the org don't like Griffin. Why? I don't know

I wouldn't say that's the same as alienating. I mean I haven't heard of him doing something purposefully aimed at causing dissension.

There are definitely people who feel that or want others to think that though. Britt got that report from somewhere, she didn't make it up

Get the ball out quick doesnt mean squat if no one is open.
And that is going to happen.
It happens to all QBs.
Often.

I've heard announcers say a million times (after a successful play)
"with that much time, someone is going to get open" .

Our O-line sucks and if it didnt I bet we could have had 10+ more points on the board.
I'm ready to spend our first and second rounder on the OL.

Green Bay's line is far better than what we have, you can't compare the two

Eddie Lacy might disagree.

I think they are very comparable, we are probably a little worse at pass protection, but stronger run block.
