RG3 looked like crap...blame it on the line all you want...but a few completions would have backed them off.
In a pass offense, you pass first to back off the defense so you can run...but this assumes you can connect on some throws.

On another note...it just could be that the coach wanted him to function as a traditional pocket passer to see where he is in his development.
Obviously he has miles to go....but didn't you notice?...no screens?, no rollouts?
No moving pocket? I sure hope that was by design..because we sure will need that + misdirection during the seaons.

If this is true...that is fine...but it means the Skins have had very little practice at this. The Skins offense CAN NOT be a traditional smash mouth, pocket passing offense...it must involve a lot of motion and misdirection. We have learned we have a poor short yardage running power game...and poor pocket passing capability. Our oline is built to move around. We heard that we werent changing our run offense...well..I saw basics today. Bottom line, Skins offense doesn't do basics well enough...we dont have the talent to go toe to toe....therefore, we need to outscheme the defense and play to Roberts strengths...which will restrict his ability to develop as a pocket passer.
Say what you want about Shanny Jr...but the guy got the most out of RG3 and Morris...he would kick butt with the new toys this year. I just haven't seen any innovation from our new coach yet...in fact...it seems far more basic.

On another note...I love our front 7.
But we need to watch the waver wire for punters and Oline.

Wonder if we could get 2 #1's for Rg3? at this point...I may take it, hes shown no growth this offseason at all I'd be fine with a humble average QB that scores
