M. Williams made me nervous. Rambo makes me much less nervous. Besides Williams gave up way to many of those plays and he never got any better. I got a feeling the rookies are going to be huge for us this year.

Well, can't be worse than Madoodoo Williams. I think of Williams last year as having a rookie, but slowly declining instead of slowly ascending.

Williams was about as bad as it gets last year. So glad we have some new blood back there.

After watching RG3 throw yesterday, I have zero concerns and he will be absolutely ready for the season opener. He was out there going full speed. Watching him in drills roll out and throw on the run, he looked like a beast out there. Full cannon arm, balance, saw even like a roll, jump throw...He looked great.

Last week several observers commented that RGIII was running with a slight limp. Was this true when you saw him?

I didnt see a limp and this was only in drills. Watching him in these sprint out throws, only thing next is contact. I was actually surprised to see him working that hard.

Can be hard to recognize/decipher a limp when a player is wearing a big brace.

A knee brace will change your stride a little and give you a hitch.

I've worn one...feels and probably looks strange when running but it holds everything together.

So he might be running 4.4 instead of 4.3 in the 40 this year just from the brace, but I'd rather be extra cautious.





For flashback's sake:
Robert Griffin ran a 4.3 '40' during Sunday's game-winning touchdown run? - CBSSports.com

Either way it's not accurate.
