Honestly, most of us probably need to take a day or a week to breathe but here goes........

Fantastic season. No one anticipated this type of progress, this fast. Most fans would have seen 8-8 as a success.

The Good:

1. RGIII - unbelievable talent. Can get it done with his arm or his legs.
2. Alfred Morris - absolute hammer at the RB position. He's like novocaine, given enough time (carries) he'll kick in and deliver.
3. O Line play - mind you, i'm talking about the play this year, not the talent. They played above expectations much of the year.
4. Drafted players contributing - outside of our dynamic duo, Cousins, LeRibeus, Hankerson, Kerrigan, Paul and Jenkins are all players in their first of second year who contributed and should be better going forward. Maybe we've learned our lesson.
5. London freakin' Fletcher - nuff said.
6. Kai Forbath - nice having a consistent leg out on the field.

The Bad:

1. Injuries - Carriker, Orakpo, Merriweather, Helu and Davis are all guys I'm hoping to see back with the team and healthy next year along with RGIII's rested and healed knee.
2. PED/drug suspensions - gotta cut those out. Way too many guys missing time over the past two seasons either for PED or some other drugs.
3. The Secondary - sheesh. I don't know where to start. Was it the playcalling or the talent? Seems like a bit of both, but we have absolutely nothing to be excited about at safety, and not much more than that at CB. Meanwhile former Skins Rogers and Landry got better when they left.
4. The Cap - might be a bit tricky filling in holes with the cap hit we're taking between this season and next.

Future:

1. That read option is nice but not a long term solution. Opponents will have a book on it by next season. And RGIII needs to be able to get it done in the pocket, cause he won't be young and fast forever. The read option needs to be a reliable wrinkle that you can throw in your gameplan, but not the main course of action. I say all this to say that while the OL played above expectations, we still need to spend whatever high draft picks/cap room we have on a stud or two that can maintain pass protection.

2. That WR corps has to come along. Garcon is nice (albeit hot-headed) and we need someone to emerge as a good #2. That and Davis needs to get his head together. He would be so invaluable to this offense if he can return to 2011 pre-suspension form.

3. The secondary - I'm for whatever helps us there.

Anyways, those are my thoughts. Add on............
