Redskins Park: Quotes - Mike Shanahan, Robert Griffin
On what Secondary Coach Raheem Morris will bring to the secondary this year: "Well scheme wise, anytime you bring in a coach, there’s always different ideas.

Their four-man front was probably as good as there has been for a lot of years, the last 10-15 years. He brings a lot of ideas from what he’s done in the past to what we’re doing now. There’s always different ideas that you toss around. But basically we have our same scheme, and he does a heck of a job coaching and getting the best out of players."
