RG3 thread

[j_y19]

well be the meek sheep and let the media think for you if you want to

i can play that game too

if you cant take a person at what he says then what can i say its too much CSI for me

when did he trash coaches and teammates again ? i listen to the same press conferences you did if not more

we includes me , when will you get this ? oh wait its chapter 400 of the CSI conspiracy reading between the lines handbook for fans looking for scapegoats

i didnt say the kid doesnt have flaws . he certainly needs to learn how to talk to the media because apparently many in the media are uneducated buffoons who cant understand english and when a kid says WE that he is INCLUDED in the group

they need a coloring book and crayons to figure out that saying "they knew what was coming" was a compliment to the eagles defense and has been uttered by other players in other situations and NEVER has been construed as throwing anyone under a bus

i can point to the time his press started to go negative . it was when whitworth called him a cornball because RG3 had different political views the he did

the real issue here is that he wasnt the miracle worker the fans thought he should be after coming of a severe injury and they are angry that we are a last place team again

does he have maturity issues ? yes but i doubt his teammates vote him as a team CPT twice and vote him for the courage award if he is perceived as throwing players and coaches under a bus which certainly debunks those kinds of statements

You're wrong. Where he started to go south with the press was in march when he made the statement that basically blamed his injury on "others". Shanahan was very wrong in how he handled that. But RG3 was right there on the sideline telling him he was fine. He conveniently forgot that by March. He also said after that game that he wanted to stay in the game because he gave the team the best chance to win. That was a slight to Cousins because we all saw how bad he was after his knee was hurt. Then, he started this "all in for week 1" campaign that was all about him and his quest to be like AP. Then, at the beginning of training camp, he made the statement that "the coaches better keep their word that if he is medically cleared, he starts week 1." So you don't think this put Shanahan behind the 8 ball in public? This doesn't absolve shanahan, but its not what a team player does in public. Then after the Philly game where he threw a lame duck int to end the game, he said, again in the press, that his WRs couldn't get open, even tho the truth was that he called the wrong protection at the line (thats a fact) and Helu was wide open in the flat. This comment brought a rebuttal from both Garcon and Moss. He also said that Philly seemed to know what was coming.....a direct shot over the bow of Kyle. There is more, but these are the obvious ones. Haven't even mentioned the espn special about HIM (not WE) that he was the executive producer of.

There is no "CSI" crap about any of this. These are direct actions he did that were about him or about deflecting his mistakes onto others. See, none of these are things that are debunked reports.

what you are seeing today with kaepernick is what a fully explosive RG3 can do

sure let Rg3 get better in the pocket but dont stifle the rest of his game

I agree 100%.

 

[skinsdad62]

now Rg3 needs to get to work and improve from the pocket and start learning what defenses are doing to him pre snap

tana said the redskins players "are in awe " of Rg3's leadership ability on the dan lebatard show on XM radio


siad he was put in a no win situation last season saying he had to rehab while the rest of the NFL had time to figure him out and Rg3 had no time to get better

said he supported shanny's choice to bench Rg3 because "he was the coach "

he says Rg3 has a great relationship with the Wrs and every wed. he would text them all with things they could do to beat the next opponent

said the press blew the whole HC/Rg3 out of proportion

And here's the Instagram post in discussion

I will always thank Griffin for a dazzling, beyond all expectations, 2012 performance. Wish him nothing but the best.

Blaming the intern. Classic.

Please, someone tell me that Griffin playing scout team safety is a bad attempt at a joke.

Can't be right. Bet he just mistyped and meant to type QB.

Carr just got injured in Oakland. Trade partner for RG3?

 

[Krusheasy]

2012 was a magical year. The stunning comeback vs Minnesota ... the 4 TD in one quarter vs Dallas on Thanksgiving, the NFC East Champions ... hell, I even "Griffened" on my wedding day Sept 15 of that year.

for anyone under the age 30, who wasn't around for the glory days, 2012 might just have been the most exciting season they've ever had as a Redskins fan.

For that, we thank you Robert.

I hope nothing but the best for him in the future.

Here's hoping he signs a 5 year $125 million dollar contract with $60 million guaranteed.....

With the Browns.
