I would really like to see KC play a first string D.
Re: Battle of the Beltway game day thread HTTR!!!
I'm not sure if Tyrod Taylor can't be tackled, or if our defense can't tackle.

Same he had flashes in 3 games last season, but wasn't real good imo.

I'm really eager because I know, in my bones, the RG3 has peaked. He will only disappoint from here on out.

Well, he got hurt. If he comes back for next week then he'll play the whole game (or most of it). I don't really have many opinions on him right now.
Edit: I thought you were asking for our opinion on Moses, but you were probably looking for an injury update. My bad.

Yeah earlier it came to my mind did Robert peak. Time will tell...

Listening to Grudens post game interview. It seems Robert or any other starter really won't play at all against Bucs
Re: Battle of the Beltway game day thread HTTR!!!
No starters play in the last preseason game, unless there's still something that needs to be evaluated, like a skill position. But even then, most teams have figured out their starters after 3 games.

Yes thats how it works. Earlier I said Robert should get some plays in the last game and some agreed.
Re: Battle of the Beltway game day thread HTTR!!!
He probably should get some more reps before the season starts, I can agree with that, but it just won't happen.

Only if he could do some read-option passes and have defensive coverage's open up feeling the threat of his legs again. This would get him back in a rhythm.

I think you make a great point in that Gruden should design some plays for Griffin where it is a designed play for Robert to run. Read option or play action pass I think would suffice. His decision making just isn't where it needs to be at the moment. He is taking too long to make a read and fire the ball in sync. It looks like he makes a read, thinks about it, then moves on which costs valuable tenths of a second. He needs to do a better job of projecting where his target is going to be so he can throw the ball as the are coming out of their break.
The defense is going to have to carry us the first half of the season if we stand any hope of "playoffs." I think our secret weapon is going to be Andre Roberts. The long run back on that one punt return was very refreshing to see. He looks fast and decisive with the ball in his hands. Our biggest handicap right now is quarterback, oddly enough. We have the weapons and the talent, but I am afraid it is going to take another month or so for them to really start to gel.

Mostly agree. O-line is currently my biggest problem - particularly guards and RT. One way of saying what you are saying about Griff is he needs to "pull the trigger" - like year one. He needs to rediscover his instincts. He seems to be thinking too much.
We gotta come out of the gates 2-0 @ TEX and vs. JAG.
