[quote=firstdown;1028240]Talking about the one he dropped. That pass was under thrown and probably the reason it was dropped.[/quote]

Robinson needs to make that play, it hit him right in the freakin' hands.

[quote=artmonkforhallofamein07;1028259]When did garçon say he wasn't healthy? I thought that was last week, and I disagree with the guy he looked alot healthier yesterday than he did in weeks 16,17, and wildcard game last year.[/quote]

Got an email couple hours ago from someone at work so probably radio this morning?

Yeah RG3 looked alot better weeks 16 and 17. I think the knee brace is really really bothering him.


So Tripp you get rid of Kyle? Thats a little much. I actually look to bring back Fred Davis into the game plan and i'd go under center with RG3 and put Young back there with Alfmo more. Id use Helu much more in the running and passing game. Id think about putting Helu and Alf in the back field together and motion Helu out wide some. Less WR screens, more RB screens.

I have to agree with you on that. No reason why Griffin couldn't have just slid feet first. Even if he lost the football, he would have been ruled down.

Chris Russell tweeted saying that Garcon said RG3 is not fully healthy and last years RG3 was a lot different than this years RG3.

I've never thought it would be a firing, but in the business world, they call it "reorganization!" or "new opportunity!"

Mike's the highest paid/year guy in the entire org after Garcon. No other player is making 7 mil/year. And because it's fully guaranteed, he's the guy I stick with the mess he created and tell him to clean it up. But unlike the Zorn fiasco, I want him to actually have the resources to make a real difference on the field this year. If he needs to go get a player like Josh Gordon, then he should be able to go get a player like Josh Gordon.

Basically, the solution is you take a sledgehammer to the team's power structure, and hope that someone already in the building can find the ingenuity to bring the team back from the abyss. If it works, great, you can rebuild the staff in the offseason under Lord Shanahan and remove all the interim tags. If it doesn't work, then you know you need new leadership at the top.

And with Griffin under contract, it's the most single lucrative job in the NFL. Bruce Allen will get all the best candidates to interview, should it come to that.

I don't think any of us needed garçon or a reporter tell us that, but the fact a player in the locker room is saying it publicly could become a problem the team doesn't need.

Re: Redskins Lions postgame
 

We are still a middle of the road team, and will end that way at the end of the season. We didn't exactly make huge improvements to our defense because of the cap issues. We are still haunted by the Snyder Era, and we have a questionable Defensive Cord.

I will say, Barnett looked really good yesterday in the second half. Fletcher was played well on the earlier downs, but I wouldn't be surprised if Barnett was on the field more then Fletcher.

I read it on WaPo, it sounds like it was an interview question. I agree, I don't think it comes as a surprise to anyone at this juncture that Robert is not the same.

You do Cousins for Josh Gordon? id strongly consider it.

Your saying that as if he has sold the team and we are recovering.

[quote=Chico23231;1028281]You do Cousins for Josh Gordon? id strongly consider it.[/quote]In a heartbeat. It's Lombardi though, so I'd ask him to throw in a second rounder.

He was sliding forward trying to make a play. Not gonna kill him for that. The ground caused the fumble. It should be our ball. That's just a terrible rule. Now the INT? That was a stupid play and all on RG3.

Re: Redskins Lions postgame
 

Something has to be shaken up on defense. 0-3 and this whole team is virtually healthy. Has and Kyle need to change things up or we need to change from them.

On to Oakland and to accomplish the impossible task of being 10-6 to make our only chance of getting to the playoffs by winning the division.
