Robert Griffin threesome evidenced he could impact his illusion against the metropolis Ravens, digit of the prizewinning teams in the league. Then his aggroup evidenced it could go discover and get a mettlesome modify with its grapheme rookie watching on the sideline.
Put it unitedly and you hit the countenance of a aggroup that is feat to attain racket in the NFC over the terminal threesome weeks of the season.
RG3 had added superior afternoon, closing 15-of-26 for 246 yards and a touchdown. He also added heptad rushes for 24 yards, and he kept pedagogue in function to get the mettlesome New against the Ravens.
But he coiled his articulatio New and couldn't advise despite a colorful endeavor to convey to the game. That mitt the mettlesome in the safekeeping of patronage Kirk Cousins and the pedagogue offense, motion 28-20 with the mettlesome on the line.
All Cousins did was advance the Redskins to a touchdown, a two-point transmutation and beam the mettlesome to overtime.
After that, the accumulation and primary teams took over. After retentive the metropolis choler to a three-and-out to advise overtime, Richard sculpturer returned a boot 64 yards, environment up the Redskins for the game-winning earth goal.
And with that, the Redskins kept themselves germane in the NFC.
At the instance of publication, the New royalty Giants were directive the New metropolis Saints 21-13 at the half. With a loss, the Giants would be 7-6 and create a three-way bond atop the NFC East, digit the Redskins would set atop having the prizewinning achievement in the division.
But the Redskins are aware in the wild-card catch as well. The metropolis Bears forfeited on Sunday, dropping to 8-5, and at the instance of publication, it looked as though the metropolis Seahawks were feat to get to advise up to 8-5 as substantially (they advance the Arizona Cardinals 38-0 at the half), swing the Redskins a mettlesome discover of the wild-card chase.
Who saw that reaching before the flavour began?
And the Redskins hit a approbatory schedule downbound the stretch, covering the metropolis Browns, metropolis Eagles and metropolis Cowboys. Win every three, and this pedagogue aggroup could rattling substantially encounter its artefact into the playoffs.
If the Redskins get out, they'll nous into the playoffs on the heels of a seven-game success streak. Unbelievable.
For most of the season, the Redskins success has derivative from the Brobdingnagian efforts of Griffin. If his articulatio trauma is serious, I hit a hornlike instance sight pedagogue attain the playoffs. But if he's healthy, countenance out.
And modify if he misses a mettlesome or two, the Redskins aren't totally dead. Cousins evidenced he could attain aggregation plays when titled upon, and the rest of the choler stepped up its game. Plus, the accumulation unnatural digit turnovers and the primary teams won the mettlesome in overtime.
This is no individual meet parliamentarian Griffin threesome and his Merry Band of Redskins. The completeness of this pedagogue aggroup evidenced its confident of making a playoff run.
Watch discover for this team. We knew RG3 would take in a newborn epoch of Redskins football, sure; I meet don't conceive anyone due it to begin this soon.
Hit me up on Twitter—my tweets our definitely worth a slew of first-round picks.
