PK Kai Forbath: Probably the team's best personnel move since drafting Alfred Morris was signing Forbath on October 9. Virtually flawless on scoring kicks, he has made 10 of 10 field goal attempts and 17 of 18 on extra points, with the sole blemish being a blocked extra point against the Steelers. Kicked a 50-yarder in his pro debut against the Vikings and is still making clutch kicks, as evidenced by his huge 48-yarder against the Cowboys with less than 3 minutes remaining on Thanksgiving Day. Has only 12 touchbacks on 32 kickoffs, so that could improve, but opposing starting positions have declined the past two weeks, indicating an improvement in hang time and coverage. Forbath is 7-7 on field gols 40+ yards in length.
QB Robert Griffin III: We're running out of adjectives to describe the weekly performances of the best 22-year-old football player in the world. Has thrown 8 TD and only 1 INT in the last two games, giving him 16 passing TD against only 4 IN...
