That's not a knee or leg issue, just try running as fast as you can someday while looking in a completely different direction than you are running. It will slow you down considerably.

Those same people don't understand things like pursuit angles, lateral speed, acceleration, etc. From an even start at a dead sprint, I doubt there is anyone who catches RG3 from behind, but factoring all those other things into play, it's not surprising. What is surprising (although I think many times it's just analyst speak) is how often color commentators don't recognize this and simply chalk it up lazily to 'he's not as fast/explosive'. While that may be a factor, let's not act like he never got caught in '12 either.

Color commentators annoy me a lot, as you may imagine, but I do have to remind myself that it is a very difficult job they have.

The real issue here is that we just haven't been a winning team since we let Devery Henderson go. Everyone is just too blind to see that

Henderson couldn't hold Gaffney's jock. This franchise was doomed the second Shanahan let that cat go, it's a fact jack.

This is a post game thread? Do we need to make a Sonny9 conspiracy against the MODS thread? lol

I'm picturing Matt sitting there with a beer in one hand and a hairless cat in another hand, laughing manically while shutting down various threads.

Way to go Matty, you forum Nazi.

Its a private joke or do you believe that head coaches have not already been discussed enough already or do you just like to please the moderator? I don't mind talking about things twice but why shut mine down if that is truly the reason? just saying

I don't know the mods personally but I've been here long enough to know that they treat people fairly, probably some too fairly. The mods are really, really decent guys but you're kinda poking the bear right now.

That's terribly unfair to Matty. As you can see in this picture of him watching events at Redskins Park......

Matty's cat isn't hairless.

This is just all sorts of stupid
