Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015

I will start this comment by saying that I'm not an RG3 apologist, I have very little faith in him and any of the QBs on our team. I also believe that Scot McC is just using these guys to buy time until he can get a QB of his choosing.

For those of you who keep focusing on RG3, here's what a struggling QB looks like behind a good o-line:

If the team wants to keep RG3 as their starting QB, I think they need to get him better protection than what he had last week. I highly doubt Cousins or McCoy would have been any successful under the same circumstances. And yes, RG3 struggled in the last series with the second team, but I think at this point he would have struggled against a defense made up of all of us given the beating he had taken.

I was also surprised to see McCoy running a read-option play and not RG3. I'm done with this team wanting to make RG3 a pocket QB. I remember last year in the first couple of plays before he got hurt in the Jacksonville game, RG3 looked much better since he was running the read-option and other plays that were a better fit for his skills.

Finally, I don't want to see three straight passing series in the preseason or regular season with any QB. If we're going to win any games, we need to limit the passing game and focus more on the running game period.
