No plans at the moment that I know of

You mean this weekend I assume.

Yes on Chester
Think so on Polumbus, though not sure
No decision yet on Morris/Royster, but ER probably starts Saturday since he's likely the starter on opening day

Royster by default IMO.

I would love to see what he could do against first teamers! He's played very well during the preseason!

Its okay that we have different takes on that play, its all healthy discussion.

In a real game? Imo I don't think he throws it Davis because the LBs are looking right at Griff and Davis. So if Griff continues to look and wait while for Davis to cross the face of the MLB the MLB is going to run with Davis and make sure Davis does not get across his face and the other LB is probably gonna beat feet and try to close the distance in a trail position. Zones defenders are often taught to spot drop to depth (often they drop back the same number of steps as the QB) then pattern read and let the QBs eyes take them to the play.
That's why zone works well against rookie QBs because they tend to eye ball their first read.

Like the other poster said I trust what Griff saw on that play.


To answers the rest of your question under ideal circumstances Griffin (a) makes a better throw to Moss (b) scrambles for the 1st or scrambles to make a play (c) pulls a savvy vet move and pump fakes to Moss thus freezing or wrong footing the LBs then throws it to a Davis who is now actually wide open
I hear that. We can agree he has to make a better throw to Moss no matter what his intentions were. One thing i will say is i dont think Griffin is your typical rookie qb. Hell campbell used to stare his receiver down well past his rookie year. Lol.

Shanny now says Royster out Saturday (tweaked his knee), Hightower will play some. Helu is still out

So it is just shaping up for Alfred Morris to swoop in and rush for 1,500 yards this season.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Was thinking the same thing bro! Especially with Helu, because I thought he was a workhorse in college and very durable. Seems like he's been gimpy most of his pro career so far!

Durability was one of the big knocks on him coming out of school.

Re: Redskins at Bears Post Game Thoughts
With all the RB issues, Brett Favre called Portis and convinced him that he still has plenty of game left and not to worry... he can still un-retire at least three more times....

Indeed, I was confusing his ball security and no fumbles in college with durability. Almost sounds like we took him too early?

So Morris and Royster early in the season and (hopefully) that stable fills out w/ Hightower and Helu by week 8.
