Yes, 2 points:
1) The Skins went very conservative in the second half. They could have scored 50 and RGIII could have thrown for 400 and/or at least rushed for more yards. The Cards were way less of an Offensive threat, so the Panthers could afford to take more chances and keep their foot on the pedal.
2) The Skins lost Garcon pretty early. Imagine if Cam lost Steve Smith for most of his first game. No way he still passes for 400 yards.
