Regardless of the oline, tell me where he has improved. Where did RG3 show you growth?

Who is satisfied?

Personally I just don't think he can be properly evaluated when the OL was such a major problem.

Even on quick drops he was getting hit.

How can you say that when he fumbled twice when there was no reason to? Sorry but when he's fumbled probably over 30 times in his career you have to evaluate two fumbles in one quarter of play.

Even when BS got backed into him he has to be able to see/feel that and either slide or just take the sack. But DO NOT turn around and run backwards. He's still doing that in year 4. Inexcusable.

I agree, but at some point shouldn't he be making his pre-snap reads and making adjustments at the line? I don't think he grasps that part of the game yet. The o-line was horrible, but RG3 could've made some adjustments at the line and changed the play or find his hot read.

While I agree that he can't be judged on last nights performance, he needs to show some more progress in terms of reading the defense prior to the snap. I can't remember the last time I saw RG3 audible out of a play.
