He got a medical redshit or whatever its called, he had only played in 2-3 games. So it happened early in the season. No idea about how long it was until he was practicing and all that stuff.

Everyone already thinks it was a terrible decision, but to have your star player that you traded so much for and invested in go down because of a decision like that... it would be real interesting to see the reaction.

Hi. I think you're lost. Let me help you find your way home:

You can't blame him 100%.

Let's just do this, cut RG3, fire Shanahan, and fire Dr. Andrews. F em all.

Oh i'm not suggestion you fire him over it, i don't think one decision can mar a 7 game winning streak into the playoffs.

But this isn't a play call that wasn't right or not executed perfectly or a hindsight is 20/20 -- I cannot find a single person anywhere DURING the game that said he should be in there. Collectively it was such an obvious decision that I assumed Kirk Cousins puked up so much from his flu he couldn't see right. I guess i'm just bummed that after a whole season of not looking competent with drama, or crazy high-priced agents etc etc, that on the last game of the year, such a bad decision could be made.

I keep Andrews, seems like a nice guy. Otherwise great idea.

Also on those stats, pretty amazing how they seem right in line with his NFL stats. Hmm, imagine that.

RT @DanHellie: Report out of Richmond from WRIC about @RGIII tearing ACL/PCL and being out 14-18 months is false. They are recanting story.

I'm waiting for bleacherreport to report that theyre going to have to amputate.

We all know that RG is an "incredibly rare exception". Hopefully in the healing department as well.

Does anyone know how long he was out when he did his ACL in college?

as someone else said, he went down in the 3rd game (out of 12) so he had the whole season basically, plus the off-season. The real question, which I doubt we could get an answer to, is when did he and his coaches know he was back and good to go.

A guy on the radio down here said that you dont ask players if they can still play. Its like asking your kids if they want to stay up late and watch tv. Players want to play, kids want to stay up late.

I dont really blame anyone, but if i had to point fingers i would go with Shanny. Injuries are gonna happen, thats just life, but RGIII should have been taken out because he was inaffective. I think RG should have come out by the start of the 4th. And in retrospect, KC gave us a better chance to win right after our second touchdown.

I wish people would just get off the stupid "gotta blame somebody" bandwagon. What happened happened. Get over with. Nobody to blame. It's not going to magically heal Griffin's knee.
