Meh. I think it might of been gameplan... Why take the hits? I dont think that the coaches expected the defense to get rolled over.
Philly has actually kept RG3 in check, running wise, in both meetings. So I'm not sure his lack of running today wasn't more about Philly than his knee. Also, we did run the read option...RG3 just never called his own number (maybe he did once--I forget).
And whilst we're on the subject, so long as he's 100% February 3 in New Orleans for our fourth Lombardi is the main concern.
Hail.
According to Chris Russell on ESPN 980 a few minutes ago, his lack of runs were by design, and his "ginger" run was also "by design" so to speak....RG3 said he purposely cruised because he knew he wouldn't be running much in the game and wanted to stick with the gameplan, but said he feels fine.
Could be the case but if I'm not mistaken most of those plays picked up like 1-3 yards a pop. The one time he didn't hand it off he looked like he was moving in slow motion LOL.
If that's true that makes me feel a TON better lol.

RG3 clearly wasn't at full speed, but who cares? He played well enough to lead us past a really crappy team and will be feeling better next week when it counts.
He doesn't need to run. He's as good a passer as there is in the league and the Cowboys secondary is terrible.

I was thinking the same thing... The Doctors and Shanny made the right call for sure. There is no way he should have played based on todays movement. I don't expect a miraculous recovery back to 100% based on what he looked like today. This is gonna take time especially when considering that playing on it brace or no brace puts strain on it to some degree as it is, and he's certainly not as quick straight ahead to sideline, much more turning the corner. It's gonna make it easier to pass rush on shotgun when the run option isn't honored. Hopefully Ware isn't at full speed if he plays as I don't want to see him hit RG like he did in first game. That looked like a second concussion event.
