Release Josh Morgan or else....

[CRedskinsRule]

REC YDS AVG TD LG TGTS
L. Hankerson 2 68 34.0 1 68 3
J. Morgan 5 50 10.0 0 14 5
A. Robinson 2 40 20.0 0 28 3
S. Moss 3 14 4.7 0 9 3
F. Davis 2 14 7.0 0 8 5
N. Paul 3 13 4.3 0 8 3
E. Royster 2 7 3.5 0 5 3
R. Helu 1 0 0.0 0 0 1
D. Briscoe 0 0 0.0 0 0 1

Hopefully the formatting looks right, but Morgan was targeted 5 times for 5 receptions. Don't see cutting that. On the other hand FD had 5 targets for 2 receptions. Not saying to cut him, but he isn't going to earn any big contract with those type of numbers.

We missed Garcon yesterday.

If Robinson makes that catch maybe we're singing a different tune today. He had a golden opportunity and let it slip. He can't let that happen again.

I must say that this reminds me a lot of the Baltimore/New England game last year. Lee Evans dropped the game winning TD, but it is Cundiff with his missed FG attempt (which would have only tied the game) that got all the blame.

This is actually a concern of mine until I see him catch a deep pass. That should be a routine play. This is the second time in two games that I didn't like his adjustment to the ball in the air on the deep pass. He has got to correct that yesterday.

I like everything else about his game but one of RG3's strengths is his deep pass decision making and accuracy. I feel like we let Armstrong go (who was a deep pass specialist) because we liked Robinson.

We had no time outs left at that point.

We still had plenty of time. Just shows another error on his part if that was his thought.

Who knows, I was just tossing that out there as a possibility.

We can second guess things all day.

At that point in the game the 1st down was more important then stopping the clock. If he makes the 1st we can spike the ball with around 50 seconds on the clock and time to run a few plays. If he gets stopped as he did we have around 60 seconds to try the FG. My question is why did we try the FG and not go for the 1st down. My guess is we had a better chance of gettig the 1st over making a 63 yrd kick.

True, it changes nothing.

Plus, when he spun to the outside if there was no help he would've possibly had a long TD run.

I don't understand the talk of Josh Morgan not being good. Where was all of this before his big blunder. The fact is - is that he has been productive with the niners and redskins. And he actually seems to want to play for his hometown team. And more than likely he will put more effort-in to try to make up for his critical mistake, so tell me why now - why would you cut a productive player that now has more motivation to work harder?

You're just hurting your own team- not making it better. And all of that to prove a point.

Morgan has the physical ability to be a starter. Not elite, but a starter. But he doesn't have the football IQ to be a starter. Again, his real mistake yesterday was not turning inside and getting upfield for the 1st down, instead he drifted toward the sideline and lost yardage. I don't mind him on the roster, but he's not a starter.

I don't think he has been anyway. On the depth chart it says he is, but seems like Robinson has been getting more play time than him, even before Garcon was injured.

- I like how everyone assumes we would have made the long kick and found a way to win in OT...

- Gentlemen, this was a stupid game against a stupid dirty team coached by a coach with a stupid mustache in a stupid dome. And the whole thing was reffed by friggin idiots... let it go.

My giddiness level remains at 100%. There's no crying in the RG3 era.

Yes. I think I can describe the reason
for this loss in one word- stupidity.

Usually in that situation players are coached to get out of bounds to stop the clock. I have him as one of our best receivers even though he made a costly mistake yesterday.
