Not the easiest game for a rookie quarterback to kick off his career. RG3 faces a huge test, not so much in the Saints* defense but matching Drew Brees and their prolific offense. There is no doubt in my mind that Washington will have a top notch defense this season. That being said i fully expect the Saints* to hang 30 plus on them. Hey, its the Saints*, they score points. They've hung 30 on great defenses in the past namely San Francisco in the playoffs last season. My hope is that Washington can match them point for point and have a shot to win it late. My head says New Orleans wins it 38 - 28 but my heart says Washington 35 - 32.

Saints* will have a few banged up players on defense today. The only defensive player that worries me is Roman Harper, he's outstanding. I'm sure he's primed to welcome RG3 into the NFL. Washington will be without S brandon Meriweather. (knee)

RG3 will not be the only rookie starting in the Redskins backfield. RB Alfred Morris has earned the starting spot after a strong camp and preseason.

      This is a very fair concern, but the eagles and rams have the #1 and #2 ranked olines. They did that while also paying their QBs. Keeping good players around BY (at a reasonable cost), is a Dan Morgan problem.

      He’s basically a decoy, and not a very good one at that as defenses know the ball is almost never going his way. In this, it’s hard to overstate just how important Coker is.

      I'm going to say this, because it happens to a lot of young guys that get drafted high each year. If they've never had anything, and suddenly find themselves getting checks for a couple of hundred thousand dollars per week, they don't know what to do with it or don't know how to handle turning this into a career. I think  XL might be one of those guys. He desperately needs someone to sit down with him, explain what being a selected star and then having to take the secondary receiver role means and how to turn that into a long, meaningful career. If Muhsin Muhammad could spend some times with him, Xavier might get this straightened out and become a contributor. He's got the skills, he's got the physicals, his brain just isn't into it and I question the maturity.
