Welp, Robert Griffin III is clearly not himself still. I disagree with letting him "shake off the cobwebs," and let him stink it up until he's comfortable. he should've played in the preseason for that. If Kyle Shannahan, the Redskins offensive coordinator, isn't going to let Robert Griffin be "RG3," then that means he's not 100%, and should not be on the field.
without the ability to use his legs, the Skins offense is easy to read and were getting destroyed. The Redskins had the #4 scoring offense in the NFL last year, and so far we are being shutout be a decent at best Packers defense.
I don't have enough energy in my fingers to type out my concerns with the defense. Right now, through 6 quarters of the season, the Redskins are among the 5 worst teams in the league.
@ Susan, Meriweather has always been considered a dirty player. he's very talented and a ball hawk, but he had the same problem last year with leading by the helmet.
RGIII should have played in preseason, I just don't like the idea of saying his knee is 100%, doesn't look like it.
The penalties are starting to show, an unnecessary hit on a down player by the Packers (Francois), then a head butt by the Redskins and House aggravated him into that head butt, but refs didn't see it. There's been some missed calls back and forth, now the players need to not get caught up in retaliation.
His critics say he isn't as good as Brady or Manning, whatever! He is a force, doesn't miss games, can run if he has to, isn't afraid to tackle, doesn't chew out his WRs in public very often and he will be 30 in December!
I agree, Packers young DBs have tackling issues, but on Finley's catch & run, that was really bad. It wasn't a case of being out of position, I think he ran over 3.
I wouldn't say that just yet. Now, if they're 0-4 by their bye week, then I'll start to panic.
With that defense.. There is a good chance, they will be! How the heck are they going to stop Detroit's offense?
