RG3 is so good with the hard count I think he makes our guys jump at times. They need to work on that. Still too many dumb penalties.

Thankfully his knee injury was very minor. It's reported that he could have returned to the game but they held him out to be ready for Dallas on short rest. Smart move.

My buddy who does not follow football too much kept asking me who is that guy with the dreads and where has he been.

Right on.

On the bright side, Gryphon's hard count is a real weapon which will reap benefits for years to come.

1) Peter King said Merriweather 'ripped up' his other knee yesterday; Whats the latest we've heard on him?

2) PK also said he talked to an NFC East Executive who was "pissed" that RG3 is in our division; and that he is not happy at all that his team has to play him for the next 15 years.

It's Kyle's fault. He was shouting the cadence from the sideline b/c he doesn't trust RGIII to call the count at the line.

Im just happy for a win.There were some things I was not happy with as far as coaching is concerned,but Im tired of that argument,neither side of the Shanny argument is going to convince the other side theyre right.
Im going to enjoy this win as much as I can look at the positives and hope to stay out of the Shanny thread.
What can you say about RG3 that hasnt been said? Hes amazing,I cant remember what pass he missed,and im sure he wishes he had that pass back he threw before halftime{all the way across field,ate too much time for no gain}but still a spectacular game.
Defense had its best game,Having Merriwether back sure looked like it helped,sure hope he can play Dallas.
Kai F with another fg without a miss,needs to work on kickoffs though
Receivers held onto ball,no drops,Moss with great catch

I know you have picked on my posts before but for crying out loud does every post you make have to defend someone by the last name of Shanahan with some over the top sarcastic remark about how they are both whipping posts for every little thing that happens bad in the world. There has to be some middle ground somewhere in your head. We are the most penalized team in the league? Those false starts yesterday at home would have had us in serious trouble if we werent playing that God awful team.

I heard it was Haslett shouting "Noonan!"* so the offense doesn't look sooooooo much better than the D.

He wasn't even responding to a post of yours so why the reaction?

He has responded to posts of mine a couple times that were not in direct response. The poster had asked if there was any reason for the false start penalties. I think that is a great question and one that has to be accounted fir if we are going to beat anybody besides philly for the rest of the year. It isnt nit picking - like how come we didnt score 50? It is a legitimate concern imo.

Sense of humor apparently lacking up in here today. Surprising coming off a big win.

And too RG3's credit, he acknowledged that is was a bad read and Moss just made a play.

I'm not gonna jump all over him about it though, because Aaron Rodgers did the exact same thing for a TD. Just be nice to see guys making harder catches more often.

How come we didn't score 50...

Sigh, I knew it was going to pop up at some point today.
