any word on Fred Davis' health?? ShannyCo said his is now under the leagues concussion protocol, but other than that i haven't heard much . . .

I would also be worried about his knee too, did you see how it was bent back when he fell down? His entire body weight was on top of his leg which was folded completely underneath him.
Additionally with Fred, Grant Paulsen said that Davis has been targeted a team high 9 times by RGIII.
truth . . . i can't stand Rex and since he is not even the 2nd string, what purpose does he serve . . . if they want him to continue to tutor the rookies on the play book he supposedly knows so well, make him an assistant coach or something, just don't waste a roster spot on him . . . if injuries happen, he'll be available as nobody else out there will pick him up
Well, if they are going to start using Banks like that, I can tolerate him a little more. He can get you an easy 5 yards on the corner on the option. 5 YPC is a nice average.
No surprise I've been a big fan of Banks' since I saw him at training camp a couple of years ago when he was a rookie. There just isn't anyone on the roster with his incredible mix of speed and agility -- not even Aldrick Robinson. I love seeing Banks brought into the option offense. They've got a nice trinity going there, with Morris, RG3 and Banks. Morris provides the power, Banks the speed and RG3 the speed and passing ability. Who the hell do you cover and how do you cover them all? Teams will come up with ways to do it, but it will leave other parts of the field open. Up to Kyle Shanahan to design the proper response and the players to execute it properly.
I love speed on the football field and nobody has it like Banks. The offense hasn't had big play ability in years -- until this season. With the defense apparently taking the rest of the season off, the team is going to need all the explosive offensive plays it can get.
