Robert Griffin III Benched

[Infamous]

WOW! should he be considered a "bust" at this point? From rook of the year to being replaced by McCoy..

Could he possibly turn into a journeyman ala Jim Plunkett and shine later in career?

BRING BLACK III!!!!!!

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Robert Griffin III: 'We're focused on San Francisco'

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000430878/article/robert-griffin-iii-were-focused-on-san-francisco

We're focused ... focused ... certainly focused on San Francisco. Just focused on San Francisco.

Focus on San Francisco. Prepare and focus on San Francisco.

Hey...it is what it is. I'm just focused on San Francisco.

Then there's GOD .... GOD .... God.

This week RG III is focused on the bench. The NFL Network's general take 'right now', is that RG III's future in the NFL is no longer as a Franchise QB but rather he will be better positioned as a back up.

RGIII has not looked good as a starter since his injury and rehab. He's no longer mobile and his feet work leaves much to be desired. He is blind to down field options for the pass. His career as the Skins starting QB certainly appears today to be in jeopardy.

RGIII being benched might be worth starting a thread in a Redskins forum. Maybe.

This is why trading 4 picks for one is a bad idea. Especially when your HC is actively trying to destroy the QB like Holmgren tried to wreck Dorsey Levens ankle after his holdout.

Remember when running QBs were going to take over?

Kapernick will always have his Packer games.

Only until Rex Ryan takes over at DC.

And Vince Young was going to redefine the league. Rodgers was a bust too back then. Good times.

Sounds like a good project for M3.

Not everyone can have the "IT" factor.

Mike Vick was on his way 'til the Feds unjustly locked him up. Coulda been the first QB to run for 10,000+ yards and throw for 30,000+ yards.

Let the man who has never gambled, exploited and killed "animals" cast the first stone.

[pbmax]

Everyone is also predicting the demise of the running QB. Conveniently forgetting Newton, Luck, Wilson, Kapernick, (possibly) Tannehill and Rodgers.

[red]

Yes, he is a bust. Sounds like he cant figure out pro systems

But not just any normal bust, the skins gave up a ton to draft him, setting them back a few years

We should have seen this one coming.. but you know what they say, hindsight is 50/50.
