Still can't believe we pulled that one out. Down 8, RG3 gets hurt, and we manage to take to OT and win?! Unreal.[/quote]

This season since our bye week, has been magical! I don't think I have enjoyed watching the 'skins play nearly as much as I have these past four weeks! Not in a long time, anyway! No matter if this team makes it into the post season or not, this team is something special.

In a season...err half season full of "Things this Team Just Doesn't Do" it was one more to add to the list.

I like how the site's ad generator has populated an ad for a knee cold compressor given how much it's noticed us discuss Roberts injury lol.

Cousins is the real deal. If he was in the 2013 draft he might have been the best prospect out of the bunch though I think its probably safer to say that Geno Smith is a better prospect.

This year he might be tied with Tannehill for the 4th best QB in a ridiculously deep QB class though Tannehill obviously get the edge because he's actually playing and doing a fair job.

God forbid RG3 doesn't start the Skins will still be fine against the Browns provided Morris can continue to avoid the rookie wall and Garcon plays. Keep in mind Morris has played in 16 games this year with 10 or more carries and he was fighting for his life in camp. The fact that he's still going strong is an incredible feat.

As sweet as the turkey day victory and the blowout win over philly was, or the mnf fight with the giants was (my least favorite team) - that game yesterday stands alone. All the things you mentioned - as positive as i was remaining - it really seemed improbable at one point. Unreal pretty much sums that win up.

OK, then who else would start at CB?

Hall at 75% is better than any depth we have...and that's very sad to say.

Next year's to-do list: secondary, secondary, more secondary!


Maybe after yesterday, we can pull a [I]Kolb for picks and starting CB[/I]-type trade with Kirk. :D

Arizona still needs a QB! We'll take Patrick Peterson.

I don't want Captain Kirk going anywhere anytime soon. Sure he might end up being the Ladell Betts of QB's but with the upcoming QB recession on the horizon I'm in no hurry to get rid of our prized backup save a ridiculous offer where a team overpays. I think until Griffin severely limits the running portion of his game the Skins will be using a 3rd or 4th round pick every couple of years on a QB.

[quote=CultBrennan59;973676]I think we need to educate more people on this board about how tough Cleveland will be.

A lot of people here just look at the media, or the record, or both and just say "Oh Cleveland has a bad record; typical Cleveland; we should win"

I'll say this again, I'm as nervous going into this game as I was with the panthers game...[/quote]

At the beginning of the year I had us losing to the Ravens and beating the Browns. As the season has progressed I was worried about both games. Last week I flip flopped and had us beating the Ravens and losing to the Browns.

I hope I'm wrong. I hope the Skins beat the Browns. But as most have said I think it boils down to how healthy RG3 is. It will be interesting to see what Cousins will do with a full weeks practice with starters if RG3 can't start or they hold him a week to get healthy.

I think Cousins can make all the throws and is acturate as all get out but he obviously is slower then RG3 and tweeks will have to be made to accomidate that.

On the plus side there is very little film of Cousins and the Skins can employ a different looks that the Browns will have a tough time preparing for. Like I said as long as Morris continues to run well and Garcon is healthy the Skins can succeed on offense. It's obviously much harder without Griffin but if there was one game where we had to use Cousins this is the one I would pick.

Pass rush is a big problem. I'm not sure we can assume anything about Orakpo's health going forward.

[quote=EARTHQUAKE2689;973656]I said that, if we defeated the Giants and the Ravens we would go to the playoffs, I just don't see the Browns, Eagles, or Cowboys stopping us from making it to the playoffs by beating us.

I'm sure everyone figured we would finish the season like this when the schedule was posted:

Eagles - Win
@ Cowboys on Thanksgiving - Win
Giants on Monday Night - Win
Ravens - Win
@ Browns - Win
@ Eagles - Win
Cowboys - Win

I know I did ;)

My buddy gave me a lot of crap for this after the game. Ugh, I was just so pissed after that last Ravens' TD.

Re: Ravens at Redskins Post Game Thread (RG3 MRI Result-Sprained Knee)
 

I agree, this is a great game for it to be Cousins, if it has to be, and like others have said all these teams have been studying to play against Griffin's offense. There is very little to no film on Kirk running a full offense based on his skill set. I imagine the coaching staff has been well prepared for this and there may even be a second playbook that has been designed around Cousins. The Browns D is tough but they really have nothing to look at to game plan on if it is cousins. They will have to prepare as if RG3 is going to be healthy are else he will clown them if he plays, its hard to study up two QB's with Different styles for one game, so I say it's win win. Although I want Griff to come out healthy and strong.
