Gameday Thread: Browns vs. Redskins

Look at a guy like Nick Foles. He played in a new offense last year and had a great season. He's a 2nd or 3rd rounder? There's too much talent at the skill positions for RG3 not to have a great year. If Foles can do it then RG3 should be able to.

Only problem is that offensive line....

Part of that is getting rid of the ball, which hopefully he'll be better at. But Polumbus and Chester? I don't trust them.

I agree. He had bad timing last year. But if the Oline played like last year they will still be a mediocre team, if that.

A defense that will probably be lucky to be mediocre and an offensive line that might be even worst usually means the QB has to be elite in order to make that team relevant. We will see though what improvements they made.

Even Matt Ryan couldn't do that last year, but then again, he didn't have Alfred Morris or 3 great targets to throw to like RG will. No excuses for mediocrity this year. I don't think he'll be "elite" or even "great", but 4000 yards, 26 TDs, and 10 picks would be a definite success in my books.
