How do you feel, the season is upon us.

One thing I will be watching for this week is Griffin's movement in the pocket. It seems to me (and I haven't reviewed any games or broken down tape, this is just an impression) that RGIII does ever not "climb the pocket" to buy time. Instead, he backs up - sometimes into the arms of a DE who has been ridden wide an deep by the tackle.

It looks to me like he is backing up trying to keep an open escape lane to the sideline. Sometimes, it as if he doesn't trust that he can step up into a pocket, let the OL direct the DL around him and buy time by a slide step or two. It may be part of his obvious apparent "there is a bigger play out there/fight for every yard" mentality. Just seems to me that he has more than once step backwards into the rush rather than slide stepping forward to let it go past him.

Again, I am just speculating and it's why I want to watch that on Sunday.
