Those were two good games. I wasn't expecting much from the Eagles or the Chargers. It looked as though the Redskins made the right half time adjustments while the Eagles didn't adjust much at all. They're going to need to learn to do that, and give the ball to Brown as well. If for no other reason than to save McCoy from too much abuse. The Chargers game reminded me of the Chargers/Broncos game last season. The Chargers were up by a bunch, but they couldn't close on either side of the ball.
As for the young QBs, I take the "time will tell" approach. Defensive coordinators have a full season of tape to look at. They can break down any tendencies and plan around that.
