Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
It's already a full blown circus at Redskins park and we're only at pre-season game #3.
@granthpaulsen
Timeline: In-game Redskins broadcast network says RG3 did not have concussion. HC says he did. One week later, Griffin says he doesn't know.
@P_Hazard
If Gruden said he had one to keep him from media, while wrong, Griffin not confirming for company line essentially throws Gruden under bus
@MikeJonesWaPo
So, Griffin isn't sure if/when he suffered a concussion. Asked if he thought he should've played fourth series, "I just work here, man."
So tired of the drama. At this point, I just want Robert to go away.
Even Joey T. thinks that it's time for Robert to shut up. I especially liked what Cooley had to say....

Meanwhile, ESPN 980’s Chris Cooley added a possibly related although quite different suggestion: that Griffin needs to speak up more, in the sense of absolving his teammates from some of the blame they took after the Lions game last week.
“If I ran a post route and the quarterback threw a corner route and it was picked, and everyone in the media said, Cooley ran the wrong route, Cooley ran the wrong route, and then the quarterback didn’t step up and say anything for me, we’ve got problems, man,” Cooley said. “This happens more times than people understand, but this clearly happened in this last week with Willie Smith and the offensive line at times. …
“There’s enough people on this team that want to say, ‘Man, this isn’t the offensive line.’ But if you can’t address it as a man and say, ‘I messed this up, it’s not my guys, it’s not my teammates, I’m a leader of the team and I’m going to take this because it was mine in the first place.’ ”

Bottom line. Robert isn't taking responsibility like he should. I have to imagine the respect level is very low for him in the locker room.
