There were two major question marks the Washington Redskins offense had
coming into the season and after Thursday night's game, they still don't

We still don't know if Patrick Ramsey is capable of being a good
quarterback. He certainly made some impressive plays, none more so than the
one in the second quarter where he ducked under a sure sack from linebacker
Mo Lewis and connected on a 48-yard pass to Laveranues Coles. But he also
had his share of bad plays, and he was atrocious in the second half.
During the first two quarters he was almost infallible, completing 12 of 13
passes for 156 yards and a score. But in the second half he was successful
on only half of his 10 attempts and netted only 29 yards. He missed several
wide open receivers, threw an interception and suddenly lost sight of
Laveranues Coles, who was the most dynamic player in the game.
