It is just preseason, with a small sample size. All that aside, Robert Griffin III looked like the real deal in week one of the preseason against the Buffalo Bills last week. He was comfortable in the pocket and in control of the offense. He did not play too fast like lots of rookies tend to do. He was able to make his reads and deliver the ball. He showed off his strong arm. He also seems to have good chemistry already with prized free agent wide receiver Pierre Garcon. The other big plus from the Bills game was that he never got hit. The Redskins' patchwork offensive line kept him clean. As a matter of fact, RGIII admitted this week he has not been tackled since Baylor's bowl game last year. Sooner or later, RGIII will have to run, get tackled, and yes, even sacked. He knows this and yes, the Redskins coaches are well aware of it, too. They would just prefer it does not happen until the games start to count. ---------- Post added August-16th-2012 at 10:34 AM ---------- HTTR4LIFE.COM® @HTTR4LIFE How Reliable is Fred Davis as a Run Blocker? (Via @UkRedskin1) http://sbn.to/PfXeSM Sitting on top of the Redskins tight end depth chart currently is Fred Davis. Now we all know how much of a weapon Fred is when he's running routes. But his run blocking has always been suspect. There were reports that he had been working on his run blocking in the offseason, so I went back and watched over the run plays when it was first team offense against first team defense. Unfortunately, the results weren't great for the Redskins (LOTS of info at that link) ---------- Post added August-16th-2012 at 10:37 AM ---------- Grant Paulsen @granthpaulsen Trent Williams says he thinks he is going to play on Saturday night against Chicago.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Fox Sports: Redskins going max protect on Griffin “He doesn’t have to worry about making a mistake,” Lichtensteiger told FOXSports.com. “He can be aggressive. He won’t have it in the back of his mind that one mistake will get him pulled. Not saying that was the case last year, but there was a certain element of that. I think knowing you have the confidence of the coach and your teammates means a lot.”Added Redskins linebacker Brian Orakpo: “You kind of got rid of the riffraff. Robert is our guy. There is no back-and-forth stuff. We are going to go with him. He’s going to be a great leader.” [...]“He wants to learn and he has the ability to do so,” Redskins fullback Darrel Young told FOXSports.com. “You set yourself up for success. He’s a great character guy, and he does his homework. Guys appreciate that. He’s got the foundation. Sure, people say he’s a rookie, but he’s not a rookie to us anymore. He’s a veteran and has to think like that. He’s the one calling the shots.” That didn’t mean Griffin got a pass on rookie hazing rituals. Orakpo wouldn’t say what exactly those were, but it often involves female clothing and other means of embarrassment. “He accepted it,” Orakpo said. “It’s a humbling experience. They all have to do it.” Griffin’s arrival has also induced a sort of amnesia at Redskins Park. “Nobody is talking about the five wins we had last year,” Young said. “I haven’t heard that once. The focus now is on how good we can be and how good we will be.” [...]“Not personality wise, but when he throws a pass he does something with his hands,” Redskins tight end Niles Paul said when FOXSports.com asked to levy some criticism of Griffin. “He always does some little, twitchy thing afterwards on every throw. It’s funny. Every time we see it on film, we start laughing.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
