I say RGIII for moving us close to scoring, Cousins and Garcon for scoring TD, Cousins for converting 2 pts. (without this there's no Crawford return) and finally the officials for overturning the Paul fumble (biggest call of the game).

Safety, CB, RT, could all use an upgrade. If there's a chance of getting a good pass rushing DE, you need to get him. Orakpo or not, that would help the secondary a lot. I still have some hope that Jenkins can be that guy but you can't count on it. This was basically his first year after coming off a major injury his rookie season.

A Grade 1 sprain? and he took himself out of the game? What a f'ing loser. He's clearly not very tough and, in the olden days of football yore, he would have been called a pantywaist and cut before they got in the showers.

Where's the toughness ...

Alternatively:

A Grade 1 sprain? and the Coaching staff let him take himself out of the game? What a f'ing losers. Clearly we are coddling players and the coaches and trainers have no clue how to deal with injuries. In the olden days of football yore, a real training staff would have given him a shot of morphine in the leg and shoved him back on the field.

Where's the decisiveness ...

3rd Option: RG3 played his but off and does not want to take any more attention away from the rest of the team so since no one will listen to him when he says pay attention to RB Morris, RG3 has decided to fake a knee injury so others can get some praise.

Always look at the positive.

I am too. I have him in fantasy in my money league and im in the championship starts this week. Let Cousins have a go and if things get bad let Griff play.

The issue of Griffin's durability is a topic for today, since he hurt his knee running the ball late Sunday and had to come out of the game. But he's going to run and he has to run in order to be as good as he can be. Injuries can happen at any time, and I don't think it's fair to label this one the result of a bad decision by Griffin or his coaches. They have put him in the best situations possible, consistently, all year long, to keep him healthy and successful, and successful they have been. Gimmicky or not, the purpose of an offense is to score points. Only six teams in the league have scored more points this year than the Redskins have.

Preach on Mr. Graziano, preach on.

RGIII RAISES THE BAR on our concepts of competitiveness and team spirit. I've never seen anything like his hobbling back onto the field, favoring his right leg, to play until he collapsed. He has the ability and the fire to carry the whole team on his shoulders.

Some ten yrs ago a journeyman qb named Jeff George started for the Skins in a nationally televised game. Remember him? During one snap the ball came loose and squirted around, players of both teams diving for it. But not Jeff George. He stepped daintily backwards, his hands half raised as if to say, I can't get my shirt dirty.

Let's appreciate RGIII while we have him. Which I hope is for a long, long time.

Everyone also wants to blame the coaches for every RG3 run. Yes there are some designed runs, but I think the majority are plays that break down and RG3 is forced to run to try and get a first down. In this case the play broke down and he took off. RG3 himself admitted that he turned inside towards the center of the field and realized his mistake and tried to get down quickly. However had he turned outside he might have been able to run out of bounds or get down cleaner and not take a bad hit. Also the coaches can teach him how to slide but he didn't do that he dove head first for the 1st down.

Also when he got hit in the back was he running or standing in the pocket? I thought he was in the pocket for that nasty hit.

Finally got to finish watching the game early this morning. It was our most incredible win thus far...took the whole team. The last time we saw this kind of "teamwork" was 2007 IMO. Everyone has rallied around RG3 IMO.

The pass protection was (marginally) better than what we've seen most of the season too. RG needs to protect himself better. He's too smart not to, if that makes sense.

Glad you finally got to watch it. Pretty amazing huh?

How was my analysis for you last night now that you have seen it Goat?
