good call, they're scrappers.

I have to agree with Tevor Matich on Comcast; the kid touched the hot stove and got his hand burned, but hopefully he's going to have learned his lesson.

RGIII is vital to this team. The shot he took today was all on him. He's great kid with a bright future. I'm glad he got this lesson out of the way early.

What are the odds that the game they least used RG3 the "running QB" is the one where he gets knocked out

And the play in question was a scramble, not a zone-read run.

Kirk played better than RGIII today.

1TD and 2 int's = a 97 qb rating?

Atlanta Falcons vs. Washington Redskins - Box Score - October 07, 2012 - ESPN


Don't know what to tell ya.

I don't know why people are so high on Kerrigan this game. Yes he had a pick 6 gift-wrapped for him. But he was stymied the whole game, particularly by the Falcons' right tackle. Practically zero pass rush.

Cut. Cunwhiff. Tomorrow.

Why couldn't we get the ball to Garcon?

Morris is still a beast, and our OL seems great at ZBS this season. Kudos to them and our OL coaches.

Garcon was targeted 7 times, but only caught 3. He was a big reason as to why he didn't perform well. This was my issue with him in Indy. Was inconsistent with his play.

RGIII wasn't all that accurate either as he should have been.

Everyone looked really out of sync today on offense

They really were. It's a shame to see the defense perform as well as they did, only to have the the offense flop. Is it too much to ask for to have BOTH sides of the ball playing good for a complete game? I'm not greedy, I just want to see it ONE freaking time in over a decade.

I wouldn't say that. SO far though, he's only earned his money in one game.

Yeah, 3 catches. One good gain and two "nothings". Would love if you guys or other knowledgeable posters could tell me why he wasn't effective deep today.

The easy answer is he is still hurt. But he should have made more plays.

Thanks guys.

So Garcon still playing thru pain. Really hope he gets better, we need more of a deep threat than a safety forgetting to cover Moss long.
