Biggest difference is Vick is older and has gotten his head and ribs cracked from playing over the years.

RG3's are still fresh. No use keeping it that way play by play.

3-4's eat up a young QB's spread offense.

Keep bouncing your head off the wall over this kid. He's got 4 days to prepare and 1 he's flying down.

Welcome his _***_ back to Texas properly. With a good ole head cracking.

This ain't Baylor and this is no slow defense. The skins are 4-6 and we need to get to 6-5.

Punch his shifty crap in the face.

I hope you are right.

Ryan needs to go watch what Pittsburgh did against the Deadskins.

3-4 defense that was hella physical with the rookie. Steelers showed him all kinds of looks.

Rob knows what he's doing and his troops have bought into what he and his side of the ball's coaches are preparing towards weekly.

The defense looked like it could have played another quarter easily against and that was a physical RB and o-line they faced.

We're in shape for this quick week. Used to it too. I don't think they are.

We should score on them.

What scares me the most is he reminds me of a 2000 mcnabb.

I think we all remember those days

From what I've seen, play inside leverage on the outside to take away the 3 step read-option slants that seem to be a staple of R2D2's game. Make him beat you outside the numbers. Him him, hit him and hit him some more. 1 or 2 15 yd penalties early in the game wouldn't bother me a bit. Should be a close game either way.

I have seen a ferociousness in Demarcus Ware when hitting the QB the last 2 weeks that was the only thing I ever questioned about the guy.

There is no doubt that he has taken it personally to be the catalyst on this defense and bring an added physicality that we have not formerly displayed the past 4 years.

That man has eye of the tiger right now and he won't have this kid out play his unit.

I like the way this defense is starting to hit people. RG3 isn't going to like it.

RG3 doesn't scare me. Allowing him to be comfortable, giving him his quick out passes and easy lanes to run, while letting him out the pocket when those quick outs aren't available does.

Don't discount Alfred Morris because I'm certain Shanny's gonna try to use him to balance things. Do not let Garcon get hot. This is Carr's type of WR and I'm certain Moss is Claiborne's as well.

You would think RGIII also walks on water and turns wine into bread the way people are talking about him. Cowboys stand no chance. I mean, never mind that the Deadskins terrible defense has to take the field.

If you remember that era well, you should know it was Jim Johnson's defense that beat us time after time. McNabb got his, but he seldom did the damage those defenses did.

With that said the best defense against this kid if he's even half the QB you've built up to be in your little head, is a good offense.

Do you really favor that kid against our defense more so than Romo against their bottom tier defense?

Maybe so but I just remember Mcnabb playing a role in the eagles beating us from 2000 to 2002, six straight wins. It didn't change until Parcells was hired in 2003 when we beat them for the first in 5 years

Play in the rain and have your receivers drop a dozen passes.

Meh, I think rg3 is good. So what? The Redskins are just a bad team overall. He's one player they have no receiving weapons, a porous secondary, no pass rush, and their right tackle is garbage. At some point in the year the offense has to wake up and score some points no reason that shouldn't happen against one of the worst secondaries in the league.

Aikbach · 11-20-2012

The intangible in this game no one is talking about is RG3 is returning to Texas to play for a home crowd fanbase and family, he said last year that would be a rush that might overwhelm him.

So RG3 returning to texas could either fire him up to play lights out or he could get the jitters, my guess is pressure doesn't phase this man, and he'll want to make a statement in front of his family and friends and collegiate fanbase.

Sad... I'm glad Dallas' players have more heart than some of their fans...

Tex · 11-20-2012

To me the only shocker is that he has been blitzed just 47 times. I would of expected TWICE that at this point in the season.

I agree. I think it will be a tough game but I expect the Cowboys to go out there and beat Washington. RGIII is a good young QB but people are acting like they are unbeatable and that is far from the truth.

Sadly if Dallas wins the same ones hollering we will lose, will claim we beat no body should Dallas win.

I think you're missing the significance of the 125 rating when he's blitzed.
