Plusses and Minuses vs. Lions

[CRedskinsRule]

his performance that can be graded is two fumbles, one completely unforced, a sustained concussion, his 2nd(3rd) one in the league, and the offense just looked wrong.

If he's the best, fine, but at least open the competition up for the rest of the camp instead of handing the job to a mediocre starter.

Mediocre? At this point RGIII would have to improve a lot to be considered average.

Sure he should be negatively graded for the fumbles (which I've said several times) but only the most jaded person would grade him down for sustaining a concussion. And the offense 'just looked wrong' isn't just a function of Griffin, its a function of the team to include individual personnel match-ups and gameplan/playcalling decisions.

Amen. It should have been an open competition. That way if Griffin or whomever would win the job out right thus eliminating the spectre of the hidden boogieman theories.

This is the Redskins, look at the last 2 decades.
We are one of the few franchises where the boogieman is real.

You can actually watch him try to boogie
