Might have lost. Highly doubtfull, but that might have happened.
Win out and we win the division! Home playoff game!!!
Their destiny is 100% in their hands!
Meaningful December football, almost as good as meaningful January football:) |

I think Mark Rypien in '91 (SB 26) might have been the last Redskin QB to start every game. Can't remember details of all the Frerotte years (result of head-butting a wall at a Giant fan's house).
Nothing wrong, long-term, with having a possible HoF QB start while backed by someone who could start with most other teams.
This is good. |

...should add: this shows:
- the coaching is pretty good
- something is building...like discovering that Lombo, Shark, and Moore can fill in for Werth and Morse, and the Nats can still hold a lead in the division.
- This Redskin team is notg only likable, but good and getting better. (Imagine drafting a CB and safety).
- Big contributions from guys that Bruce Allen drafted...not just from Haynesworth-like free agents. Shows the scouting system has improved.
- Most of all: the Redskins are not "Robert Griffin III and some other guys". Think of London Fletcher...the seasons and games played, he's banged up, and he snags an INT. |

| Did Montgomery get injured? Going in for an MRI? That would be a big blow |

I spent the last couple of years arguing with my bro-in-law about why Kyle Shanahan is our offensive coordinator. He insisted that Kyle had no talent and no other team would have him; he retracted that today.
We all saw RGIII come in and turn this team around, but to see the team put up a 17-point win not just without RGIII but with a guy many people thought was a wasted pick has to change some people's opinions not just on Kyle, but on the team, and the management (Bruce Allen etc.)
So much for 3-13 predictions! |

Bruce didn't draft anyone. That's all Shanny. Bruce handles the contracts, not picking the players. |
