    Redskins NFL.Com: Redskins' Kirk Cousins asked to keep mum on reps

    Bwaahaahaaa!
    "When he's not playing the role of Cousins, Browns backup passer Colt McCoy is being used to double as RG3 for the scout team this week", according to ESPNCleveland.com's Tony Grossi.

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100...ep-mum-on-reps

    The Washington Redskins are going to put a quarterback on the field Sunday. Which one remains shrouded in mystery.

    "I can't tell you all that," Griffin told The Associated Press after Wednesday's practice. "First, I don't want to give the Cleveland Browns a competitive advantage. And I don't want to let anybody down, so I don't want to say that I'll be playing and end up not playing."

    Backup Kirk Cousins was equally covert when asked about his status, indicating that Redskins quarterbacks have been muzzled this week.

    "I was advised not to comment on the rep distribution," Cousins said. "So I'm sorry, but I'm not going to say anything along those lines, just to protect my team and give us the best chance to win on Sunday."

    RG3 went so far as to admit that his limited non-contact work in Wednesday's practice was partly for show.

    So how does that work?

    They have McCoy run the read option, and on plays he's supposed to be Robert keeping it, he raises his hand and they stop, and another guy ten yards downfield then pretends to be Robert.
    or do they just let McCoy ride a motorcycle?

    Didn't we hear about the Ravens doing the same thing? It's just weird to hear of the Browns trying to use McCoy like this... wow.

    And good on our coaching staff for prepping RG3 and Cousins for the media blitz. I love it.

    Rollerblades ... i heard they are using rollerblades. I also heard they are putting those parachutes on the back of the defensive players to slow them down and speed up McCoy.

    In fairness to these teams...what else can you do? You have to give your defense looks against the type of offense they will see, and you can't really use a DB or WR unless he can also make the throws. I would guess it's better that they see a very poor-man's version of our offense than to just sit and watch tape on it all week.
    "Washington strolled to the NFC championship, outscoring their two playoff opponents by a combined total of 48 points. Their domination was more than impressive, it was historic. The 1991 Redskins boasted the largest average margin of victory among all Super Bowl champions."

    At least Tyrod Taylor ran a 4.55 40 yard dash so it is somewhat in the ballpark of Griffin (4.41). McCoy ran a 4.79 in Combine. Not quite in the same league.

    Exactly what I was thinking. They'd be better off letting Josh Cribbs try and run it... or doing this drill:

    Yeah, why in the world isn't Cribbs the one doing it? He played QB in college!
