Re: The RG3 Sucks - Knee Jerk Reaction Thread

So what happened his first year? Did the read-option fool people so bad that he only had to hit one read? That's the part that makes me sad. I thought no one can fake setting NFL rookie records for accuracy, but he just might have.

He is broken physically and mentally. Teams don't really give a shit about him running the ball and that has hurt him in so many ways. He's panicky and you can't be that in pro football.

In 2012 when he was hurt, KC came in and ran the real Shanahan offense. Why? Why didn't they let Griffin run that offense? They were both rookies at the time. It was all pistol and read option. I think we now know why. They knew he couldn't run it so they designed an offense for him and it worked.

First credit Griffin's athleticism. The threat of the run greatly diminished the pass rush. Beyond that? Credit the Shanahans for designing something he could execute.

But don't credit them for developing him, he obviously hasn't developed at all.
