Ok, I was calling for the Read option last week in this thread and we didn't see any of it, Why not this week? I mean really guys, everyone want to make RG3 a "pocket passer" I say screw that and make him what he is a read option runner, who passes off play action. It worked in 2012, so why are they not doing that? Oh, he might get hurt.... I seriously doubt he gets hurt on a designed read option where he makes the decision to keep it because the LB crashed down on Alfred Morris leaving Griffin wide open to run outside. Did anyone watch the Seahawks in game one? Let DJax be our Percy Harvin ruuing those end arounds and then we can play fake off that stuff all day and let Morris be our "Beast-mode" back and run up the middle.

I just don't get the whole pocket passer thing with a running QB. They should have drafted Ryan Tannihill if they wanted a pocket passer. The Redskins gave up too much for a "pocket passer"
