Santana Moss says RGIII needs to take more responsibility for losses
By Mike Dyce
The Washington Redskins offense struggled all day against the Philadelphia Eagles. With two touchdowns and two two-point conversions, the Redskins were making a late fourth quarter comeback when Robert Griffin III threw an interception to end the game. Griffin made some comments afterwards, specifically that the Eagles defense knew what was coming.
Veteran Redskins wide receiver Santana Moss wish Griffin would take more responsibility at the podium. Whether it was his fault or not.
“If we’re going to win games, we need to win games with our guy saying, ‘At the end of the day, I didn’t make a play,’ regardless of if it wasn’t him,” Moss said, via ESPN.com. “And that’s how I feel. Because that’s what we’re out there to do.”
“As a leader, you understand that if you’re involved in the situation, whether you’re the receiver, the quarterback, the guys making the tackle, whoever — regardless of the outcome, good or bad, you have to at some point, stand up and say me or I,” Moss said.
“I don’t need to be going back and forth in the media about who didn’t do this and who didn’t do what,” Moss said. “At the end of the day, I was seen with the ball in my hand last, as a quarterback I’m saying, and if it didn’t get done then I’m going to let you know it was me. Whether it was me or not. It was me. And I’m going to get better. And we’re going to get better together.”
