Although, offensively and with RG3, this team is never really out of the game now. Have gotten acustomed to the Skins losing close games, seeing them put up points has been an unexpected surprise this season.
Harping about the hits, is only because no Redskins fan wants to see anything happen to RG3. Was listening to B-Mitch on the radio and he equated RG3 to high end Italian sports car, like a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, and that if you had a car like that you would not enter into a demolition derby, and basically that is what the Skins are doing with how they are running the offense. You, and others may disagree, but I agree with Brian Mitchell's sentiment.
In my opinon, for the little that it is worth I don't think this team is ready to contend yet. Unfortunately for all of us who support the Burgundy and Gold the $36M cap hit, has set the team back. I don't think it was coincidental that the Giant's owner ensured that both the Skins and Cowboys took a big hit. There is no doubt in my mind that the other owners colluded, but that does not change the situation. I think cap hit did not allow Allen/Shannahan to be as active as they would have liked in free agency, and some of what we are seeing on the field is an obvious consequence of the penalty.
Hopefully the coaching staff and team can rally and the team can even out its record this weekend. HTTR.
