And please Kyle, no more bubble screens -- you have garcon and a speed demon in robinson, challenge the Ravens secondary.
Redskins: 28
Ravens: 24
Alfred Morris gets 140 and 1 TD
RG3 throws for 240 and 2 TDs
Defense comes up big with a pick-6

I hatte the hatte for the bubble screens. It's not like we haven't scored off them, and made other positive plays. But more importantly, for what little I understand about the Shanahans, if forces defensive lineman to cover the whole width of a field. This is important in their scheme, because a) it doesn't tire out our players, and b) causes the DL to be running a lot. Things like the early bubble screens allow the offensive line to be fresher than the defensive line when we get to the 4th quarter. That is, imo, part of why we can see 4 or 6 minute run drives to close out games now. They also, by all accounts get Griffin into "rhythm" or comfort on the field.
Not every play has to be a knockout, some of the plays are designed to be body blows just to wear down an opponent's line and midsection.
