The Skins completely botched the handling of RG3 from his initial injury until now. M&M said they believe Shanahan is trying to get fired, and aiming for the Houston job. I don't believe that, but if true..I wouldn't blame him.

His focus was his knee, when it would have been much more beneficial for him to focus on improving his game and studying film. I can see him having a bounce back year, but I honestly won't be surprised if he never has a season as good as his rookie season, UNLESS he learns how to be a pocket passer.
Oh most def his focus was on his knee. True, for him to succeed he needs to be able to throw from the pocket. They dont need to make him a pocket passer, but he needs to be able to do that very effectively.

Russell WIlson is running about the same last year but has upped his game a bit in the passing. Kap is running a little bit more and his passing has dropped off a little bit.

Who woulda thought that RW may end up being the best of those three?

Luck,who is a pocket passer, is struggling without Wayne.

Redskins may do their version of what the Natinals did to Strasberg and shut him down....

Redskins are just a prime example of why you don't mortgage all your future picks for one guy. IDGAF who it is. They can't even add a first round piece to their team after having a shitty year.

Shanahan over the years seems to be progressing well into the Norv Turner and Wade Phillips type.

I'd fire Shanny and bench RG3

I DO agree however, that they should have at least given Cousins a chance until theyknew RGIII was completely healthy, or like a month ago they should have considered it.

The issue here isn't playing RGIII, it's more about they haven't really done much to showcase Cousins, who may have some value.
Yea, hindsight is 20/20, but it was obvious to see that RGIII wasn't healthy at the beginning of the season. It was a bad move to force your possible franchise QB into action before he was obviously ready.

Don't know what he will do, but I highly doubt Shannahan GAF about RGIII. He is gone at the end of the season.

This has happened to Denver before.

Then they fucking win like 52-28.

Denver better get it together!

San Diego is a team I'd guess the playoff definites want to keep out of that #6 seed.....and them winning this game would give them a much better chance as they have a should be win vs Oakland next week.

But many NFL fans who don't play Fantasy are happy he made this a far better game.

Why they think they can get away with pulling a jersey.

Go for it and pass......

Pass on 3rd and 4th and guarantee they make it, but they think they can keep running the clock by running? Keep mixing it up and at least get a FG.

Great punt and coverage though....but up 7 and Peyton ball. I'd blitz him good on the 2nd play.

Offense wasnt what we are used to, but their defense is horrible...and very undisciplined.

Saw a stat that Stafford is 1-22 against teams that finish the season over .500. Pretty shitty.

That's almost unbelievable.
