Health of 3 most important players

[HailYeah21]

Obviously #1: Rg3- nothing really to be said here expect he has to stay healthy and cant take big hits- has to slide and learn how to settle for less rather than getting the last yard.

#2: Trent Williams: If Rg3 werent on the roster he would be the clear cut #1 guy on this list. His wrist is very concerning. He wont sit down in practice- but thats what the coaches should MAKE him do. Apparently Rak has been having more success against him this camp and from what im reading it has to do with Trents technique- with his arm. I 100% think the wrist is slowing him down and it will probly be a ongoing problem throughout the season.

#3: Rak: I probly would have left him off this list but his injury today reminded me of how easily he can get hurt. Hopefully its nothing but we CANT lose him again. We need Rak healthy for a full season this year, plain and simple. Seems to be his right leg that he hurt today.

Don't think Rak is injured. Probably a cramp. What it sounds like anyway.

So, personally I think I have to boot Rak for Morris from the OP. It sounds strange for a RB, and I don't think he is by far the next coming of TD, but we have quite literally nothing behind him. Helu? Likes to get hurt. Thompson? IS hurt.

RG3
Trent
Morris

Lo and behold, all seem to be on offense, yet our defense had the biggest struggles

 

[skinsdad62]

RG3
williams
morris
LBF
rak
kerrigan

in that order

After rethinking this

1. Griffin
2. Trent
3. Cofield
4. Kerrigan/Rak
5. Alfred
6. Fletch
7. Monty

I think you are overvaluing Morris. Yes he had a huge year. He'd be good in this system regardless of QB but he's made great by RG3.

Look back two years. We had no passing threat but Helu and Royster both were averaging 5YPC. Before that Hightower was top three in rushing in the league (until he was injured). That was with Grossman...now we have RG3.

I get what you're saying but we are hurt behind Morris. I don't think I'm over valuing him. How many games has Helu played since he was drafted? How much has Thompson even practices? Royster? No..please.

i dont think we are overvaluing morris . and i dont think its fair to say he was made great by Rg3 either . now , will he get 1600 yds ? doubt it . but morris is a fine RB

Morris averaged 4.8 YPC last season but against CLE he averaged only 3.2 YPC.

Morris with Cousins rushed for 6 yards on 3 carries against ATL...3.0 YPC.

Morris with Cousins rushed for 5 yards on 3 carries against BAL...2.8 YPC.


Facts don't lie.
