Re: Out of state Redskins fan rant….Parental Guidance Suggested
You ask why we didn't keep running the ball with Morris. My answer, although you probably don't want to hear this (just like you don't want the I told you so other teams fans telling you that RG3 was going to get hurt) but Alfred is only effective if Roberts running. Its simple; RG3 runs outside, Alfred runs inside. Once Robert was hurt, what did seattle start doing? filling in the middle with pressure making us run it outside where neither of them were effective at that point.

Re: Out of state Redskins fan rant….Parental Guidance Suggested
Great post, Summo. I, too, hate seeing a player get hurt, whether they're a Redskin or not. It also makes me sick to see how many people seem to be delighted by RG3's injury. Hey, what can you expect from Cowboys and Giants fans? I just wish they'd move the **** out of DC/MD/VA.

Reading the OP confirms why Giant's fans are public enemy number one (along with Raven's fans.).

But if you take away one of those guys, the other guy that is playing becomes less effective, because the defense only has to defend one area instead of two areas. Shanahan knew that if he kept running it with Morris that eventually it was going to be stopped and ineffective and just a hobbled QB throwing inaccurate passes. Should he have tried it? Sure so that there weren't people saying "Why didn't you run it with Morris?" But it would not have been all that affective. Thats a guarantee. Listen to ESPN and NFLN and hear them tell you all about how Morris is good in large part because Griffin posses that other running threat defenses have to defend. Think of RG3 as Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen as Alfred Morris. Scottie Pippen wasn't anything special without MJ, but with MJ he was great and one of the best players in the league. I'm trying to dummy this scenario down as good as I can for you so that you can understand football better by using other sport examples.
