Unilke reading D's - which is a learnable skill, is RGIII lacking one of the innate unteachable skills necessary for a QB?.
Don't get me wrong, I love this kid, really. Everything about him. Talent, head screwed on right, all the elements for leadership, etc. I am hoping it clicks for him ... soon.

I just think it takes QB's from a simplified spread offense a lot longer than other QB's who run a pro style offense their entire life.
Drew Brees is a perfect example. He truly didn't play well until his fourth year in the NFL. It just takes time with spread QB's.
