He's playing because RG3 couldn't show the capacity to play the QB position at even the most basic level.

Unnamed person in this thread: "Everything he's done in Washington so far has shown he can be a starter for this franchise."

And yeah, I agree with your other points. I'm all about letting guys play to develop, but not before they're ready(Griffin isn't). I agree with the decison to start McCoy, I just don't think he's anything other than a serviceable backup that will get us to the offseason on all fours instead of crawling on our belly.

Yep, and Griffin had a perfectly placed bomb against Tampa Bay that Garcon dropped.
