RG3 proves what kind of freak athlete he is by putting up MVP consideration

Defence surprises with Rak and Kerrigan back and wins us games

Skins win division

SkinsDad, as usual, those are bold predictions. If we do achieve your predictions, we are going deep into the playoffs, and maybe the SB. Unfortunately I don't see it this year. Here's what I expect:

1. Agree with RG3 and 4000 yds. Don't see him getting anywhere near 1000 yds rushing. I think the shanahans are really going to limit his attempts.

2. Garcon with 85 catches for over 1000 yds. Morgan, no where near those numbers. I see maybe 55 catches for 650-700 yds. Just too many other options, he won't get the looks. Oh, I also see Hank with similar numbers to Morgan, maybe even better. This will be his break out year.

3. Morris with 1300 yds. I expect us to have some injuries (anyone but williams and we can survive) on the OL which is going to affect the running game. We got lucky there last year. Helu with 300+ yds rushing, but 25 receptions for another 300+ yds.

4. RAK and Kerrigan both with 12-14 sacks. Kerrigan makes PB because he also has 2 INTs. Jackson and Jenkins combine for another 6-8 sacks, with both playing well with limited opportunity. At the end of the season, we have a tough decision to make on RAK. I predict we franchise him for one year and then let him walk in 2015 with Jenkins his replacement.

5. Rambo starts as rookie and plays all 16 games. Has 4 INTs, but also gives up a handful of big plays due to blown coverage. Shows promise and upside. Thomas never starts this year, but is first backup to both Merriweather and Rambo.

6. Defense will be markedly improved. Agree with top 15.

7. Rocca will be punter, Potter just doesn't have the distance or hang time. We do not keep and kick off specialist.

8. Rex does not make the original 53. Agree with the coaching angle.

9. TEs combine for 130 receptions from RG3. Davis has 70, but is not resigned at end of the year.

10. We upset SF and GB, but we lose games to PHI and KC. We end up 9-7, but still win division.

11. We sweep Dallas again, with their team falling apart and Jerrah blowing the whole thing up at the end of the year.

12. Fletcher is not starting by the end of the year.

Though I'm not a Redskins fan, I loved watching RG3 last year, I really hope he comes back from the knee injury and tears up the NFC East. He is a great athlete to watch and helped convince my wife to get the Direct TV NFL package so we can watch him this fall.

All indications are that he will be back for the first game, and maybe even for the start of training camp, which is unbelievable. My guess is that even if he is ready to go at the beginning of TC, Shanahan works him back slowly. I expect to not see him in a preseason game until game 3, where he plays a quarter.

RG3 is a freak player who if healthy can be a very special player

I agree that he'll be able to be back by the opening of training camp, but do you think that he'll play in any of the preseason games?

We get the 3 seed going into the playoffs.
We beat the wildcard team and head to Seattle where we dispose of the Hawks.
After the Seattle game Trent Williams finds a specific Seahawk to ask him some questions.
RG3 wins league MVP and Comeback player of the year.

While I think RG3 will be in the running for MVP, I don't know that he is eligible for comeback player of the year since he didn't actually miss any time.

The National Football League Comeback Player of the Year Award refers to a number of awards that are given to an NFL player who has shown perseverance in overcoming adversity, in the form of not being in the NFL the previous year, a severe injury, or simply poor performance.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Football_League_Comeback_Player_of_the_Year_Award#cite_note-1

Yeah, I think he he qualifies for that.
