Well here's the thing. They got some turnovers and that helped put points on the board. Dallas is going to score, we knew that. Dex Bryant is an animal. Really the only thing that bothered me yesterday is when Haslett went to the zone.

I like being wrong about Aldrick Robinson.

I really like the fact Kyle and RG3 are spreading the ball around alot to different guys. Alot of different packages keeping the entire WR core on and off the field. Keeps the defense from keying on one guy.

wasn't it so awesome how joe and troy were talking about his speed and ability to run right by you, right before his td?

Mike Shanahan drafted Robinson because he was fast. He probably slipped to the 6th round of the 2011 draft because he couldn't catch the football. But even at SMU the guy dropped passes. He's nowhere near a complete wide out yet but once he starts catching 15/17 balls thrown to him he will be a starter. The young man does have the potential to be a 65-80 receptions a year/1,000-1,300 yard a year wide receiver.

Lets hit the brakes just a little on that prediction. What I see in Aldrick is a guy who can be trade bate to a WR needy team next year.

Aldrick Robinson has too much speed. If he can keep catching passes without the drops, he can be just as good as any WR in the NFL. I don't see the Redskins trading him. He's a developmental player who hasn't reached his potential yet. Once he reaches it, it would be crazy for the Redskins to trade him. Robinson could be another Victor Cruz. I can see the Redskins trading Leonard Hankerson though.

No freakin' way. How about we keep a home grown guy and let him keep improving with RG3.

Can you teach someone to catch? I think there's a lot of psychology/mentality/confidence that goes into it. Maybe just a million reps so it becomes 2nd nature?

And I gotta eat some crow on Robinson because early in the season he looked pretty typical but others said he was a burner. Yesterday was totally blown coverage but his speed has a lot to do with it. Did I hear a 4.2 40!!!?

Like with everything on the NFL level, catching a football comes with repetition. Robinson may never drop another pass in his career or maybe he will. But the positive thing is he's developing into a very good wide receiver. We have to respect the Donald Drivers, the Victor Cruzs, the Miles Austins, and the Aldrick Robinsons because these are wide receivers who were drafted very late or not at all. Like Driver, Cruz, and Austin, Robinson has a great opportunity to flourish into an elite NFL wide receiver.
