- The change of pace back netted through the Chris Thompson pick forces defenses to respect his speed to bounce
- The speed of Aldrick Robinson and Pierre Garcon forces teams to respect RG3's deep ball
- The resigning of flawed but athletic offensive linemen like Lichtensteiger continues to allow the zone block system to flourish. Ideally our linemen would be quick as cats and able to withstand a bull rush from N Suh, but come on. RG3's mobility mitigates that weakness somewhat.
In a time when we're constrained by the cap penalty we can't have it all. But we can do well with this roster.

Great points, and just adding because I love our offensive combinations
Davis/Reed/Moss force defenses who are already dealing with Alfmo/Garcon to shore up the middle of the field
