Watt basically won that game. He's going to do that this year. He owned the game.

I'm not ready to call him Reggie White as a few of those sacks were on Griffin. He pushed around our line a bit, but wasn't that to be expected? We made some plays on him in the run game. I would've liked to see Gruden have some designed rollouts to the left side and go away from him.

QBs are under duress all over the league, and RG3 is no different. Plenty of big slow QBs are able to react quickly, step up and/or to the side and buy time to make a throw downfield. Stafford did it a bunch just last night. Just watch some other games. The contrast is stark.

It's not speed, but reaction time. RG3 did a much better job of reacting sooner in the 2nd half, but he stills opts to go backwards and roll out vs. taking the lane right in front of him. There's no reason he should have been outrushed by Ryan Fitzpatrick. There were yards to be gained, but he either reacted too late or, for whatever reason, did not want to cross the line of scrimmage under any circumstances.

That's a 5 win team that will get dominated most of the season. Nothing he did justifies 6 points.

That game was lost, not won.
