I can't imagine Kyle wanting to leave when he just got a shiny new toy in RG3 to play with. If we were to get rid of a Shanahan, i'd rather get rid of his dad.

There were a lot more than 3 blown plays, where the defense knew what Kyle called before he did lol. Our redzone production was pretty pedestrian yesterday as well...too many FGs instead of TDs.

I don't understand how the same people can talk about RG3 as a phenom, talk about our stellar ground game, talk about how good our WR corp looks, but not question why the defense blows us up over and over again or why we can't get in the endzone when it matters?

Who talks about our good WR corps? They're average at best (at least until Garcon gets healthy).

I know I talked about our lack of production in the red zone yesterday. But we've been pretty solid up until yesterday (3 TDs last week)

Correct me if I am wrong, but before yesterday we were 13 of 14 TD's with goal to go. Now we are 13 of 16. I understand that they hurt yesterday, but offense other than turnovers was not the problem vice versa Defense, other than TO's was the problem. Odd how that works.

We have the 3rd highest total points in the league, and the 5th highest per game offensive yardage. [URL="http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/points-per-play"]Points per play[/URL], we are 2nd and the Giants are 3rd. But more than just statistically speaking, I would say the offense passes the eye test. When you watch them, other than a blown call occasionally this offense looks like it can move the ball when they need to. I agree with SS that sometimes KS looks to get overly cute, and those plays don't tend to work, but overall, he has taken a star player, and put him in an offense that exploits his talents. And we get to see that every week.

That said, Hurney needed to be fired the moment he resigned Jake Delhomme to a huge contract after throwing a 5-6 INT game in the playoffs. He's now signed Williams, Stewart, and Johnson to huge contracts and they haven't done diddly squat. Moronic GM moves to say the least.

Don't think we will because a) that's not the type of person RG3 is and b) I'm sure people will laugh at this but RG3 has Rex Grossman and Cam has Derek Anderson. Anderson is a known Grade A a-hole, whereas Rex is all class. In the locker room and to the media. Rex is a major influence on RG3's behavior as an NFL pro. And I think Anderson is to Cam as well

I was, early on in the season, thinking that if they aren't going to dress Rex we ought to let him go and use the spot for someone else. But, the one comment Griffin made about Rex telling him you want them to score so you can have time to win it, and then even more the end of the 76 yarder last week, Rex came up to him right away laughing and smiling and said "you can smile till Wednesday". Those moments were good things for a rookie (yes he's still a rookie) qb to hear.

Looks like Trent "bust " Richardson will miss more time With the ribs injury.

Re: Around the NFL...Week 7 Style
 

Did anyone else see this? (My apologies if it is elsewhere here.) But seriously, WTF? (Reported by Dan Graziano.) Shouldn't Joe be encouraging the Panthers to go crush the Cowboys? Isn't a cardinal rule that our favorite team is whoever is playing Dallas?

This was an odd one: Former Redskins coach Joe Gibbs gave the Cowboys their Saturday night pep talk at the team hotel in Carolina. I think what's weird about it is that the speech seemed designed to help the Cowboys feel better about screwing up the clock management at the end of the previous week's game in Baltimore, which means it seemed aimed at coach Jason Garrett, which means I wonder why all of the players had to hear it. But Jerry Jones is an odd cat. Also interesting in this anecdote is that Jones seems to indicate that Gibbs was the one who gave him the idea that the head coach should be one of the coordinators.

This sounds right to me. Several times I have heard RGIII say something along the lines of "Well, Rex told me ..." and always saying the right thing.

No big deal calling the reporter "sweetheart"...it's after a game, he's pissed that they lost, I give him a pass on that. But his tone is just awful. Cam comes across as a front runner. Everything great when they're winning, but when the chips are down I'm not sure I'd want him leading my team.
