Cooley says he knows the offense and knows what he is talking about. I know, I know, most analysts say the same thing. It's one thing to read a break down by a writer at the Washington Post or a part time soccer analyst on bleacher report. It's another to listen to someone break down the mistakes who played in the same offense he is analyzing.

FYI, he does fault Scherff for poor play. The jist of the break down is that Grif didn't do anything that even a mediocre QB should do to mask the errors of the line.

He makes a big deal out of the one instance that Scherff and Smith were beaten each and they were able to keep the defender in front of them. This, he argues gives RG3 an opportunity to side step and hit a check down or throw it in the dirt at somebody.

Thanks for posting. Cooley shuts up all those people yapping about "WHY WEREN'T ANY BOOTS RAN???".

Moses and Scherff haven't taken many NFL snaps and certainly haven't taken them side by side.

The more they play together the better they will get together.

Cooley was extremely high on Moses' pass blocking and was impressed by his footwork. Still missing a run block or two.

Scherff needs to improve asap. He says Scherff isn't playing aggressive and seems to be playing tentatively. As his snap count increases, so will his comfort level. He will stop thinking and just react (as nasty as possible hopefully).

I don't believe RG3 is the guy but if he is the starter, I hope our inexperienced right side improves enough for him to survive Wake and Suh.

If past performance predicts future outcomes; he isn't going to do all the slippery stuff to protect himself.

Very tough first match up for our offense and a scary match up for Grif. Really hope we aren't on the hook for the injury cap hit after week 1.

Punch,

Do you think they should draft a QB in 2016? I still think they need to get another first round lineman first, maybe another first and second in next years draft. Who is available next year?

I think they have several holes to fill, but this is the RG-3 turnaround thread. Lol. Way to early to know who the good qb's coming out are, plus there is the possibility that Cousins progresses. I did see one '16 mock draft that has us taking Christian Hackenberg from PSU with the 3rd pick. They had Cardale Jones going number one to the Browns.
It is also way to early too see how our young oline pans out. Would be nice to see some semblance of a line by 2016 and not have to spend two more picks on it so early.

Edit: oh n welcome to the Warpath.

I was a long time supporter and am finally off the train, I really think that like Spurrier did to Ramsey and Campbell, Shanahan's unwillingness to stand up to Snyder/Griffin and keep him from coming back his rookie season has broken him and he is done.

Re: griffin refusal to run R/O...I'm to the point where I don't really care to know who is telling the truth Griffin or Shanahan.

Tbh, if Griffin refuses to run R/O, he will not last in this league. His only option is to embrace it or he will have a very short career and known just for that historic rookie year before he blew out his knee.

Griffin's only hope is to play in a R/O system. I could really see where skins release him and someone like Chip Kelly picks him up. Griffin has no choice but to play that system. He has never been a pocket passer and never will be.

Griffin had alot more of it when he as a rookie, he got away from guys using his legs. That guy looks like he is gone though, I don't see it anymore.

Also Gruden is an idiot, and needs to get booted asap.

Griffin, 91 votes, 17%

You can add a third reason, RGme's play on the field the last two years has been terrible. How much longer will we be forced to watch Griffin struggle at QB?

Was gonna throw that out there. Lol.

I would trade Griffin now for whatever we could get..I am not sure there is a team in the NFL the he could be the number 2 QB for..who would it be??..who wants the drama and the injuries..you have to figure that into it. Right now if Rglll was cut outright and we were not on the hook for his salary the Redskins would be in a much better place ..

You aren't going to get squat for him. You think scouts are going to see any positives if he can't stay on the field at all? The Skins are tied with the Raiders for being the most dysfunctional franchise in the NFL, and do you think somebody is going to want a QB that can't make it on the Skins?
