They all have mild post-concussion syndrome.

Have not watched the Vikes at all since last season, where despite knocking out AP and Ponder the skins couldn't beat Joe ****ing Webb. I think I like the skins chances in this game. Ponder is doing a really good job protecting the football and AP seems to be all the way back. That said, if RGIII plays Washington has shown an ability to be in every game and keep them all close (re: one possession games). They have also shown that they can run the ball against anyone

With a healthy RGIII I will take the Skins at home 31-28.

This will be a real test. If we can win on the road (against RGIII), I will really start to believe in this team. If we win I think it will be because of our defense, don't really see the offense lighting it up on the road.

My official [optimistic] prediction is Vikes win 17-14. Blair Walsh GW FG

RGIII repeating himself about the concussion, lolololol

Looks like a pretty fair take to me. Griffen certainly could cause them problems, assuming he's not hesitant to run. The Vikings don't exactly have the most athletic group of linebackers, if he can get outside the ends he could do quite a bit of damage.

I don't see the redskins being successful on the ground however the only linebacker I trust is Chad Greenway and I think most of the game he will be spying RG3 and be in man with that TE on the redskins that replaced Cooley. It's not the run game that scares me, it's RG3 taking off that does.

Having a spy for the QB opens up the run game. That's why teams that guys like Vick, Newton, Tebow and VY played on had great running games even if you took out their actual rushing yards. It is going to be fun watching the battle of the Vikings run D and Morris though.
