Great point...and keep in mind, he has been taking a ton of snaps under center which is somewhat new for him

He looks bad against a strong pass rush. I would see how he does out of the shotgun if he continues to struggle I hope that they don't wait too long like Campbell before deciding "this guy doesn't have it".

How long of a leash do you truly give a talented guy like RG3? Do you keep him in the whole season if he is sucking and hope he improves, or do you maybe bench him if we get out of playoff contention and see if some time on the sidelines would help him? Not hating here on RG3 by any means, just hoping we do things better with him than we did with J.C., by that i mean leaving him in when he shouldn't have been starting anymore...

I think we're not gonna win a game. Crompton will be starting by the end of the season. And we'll have an interim head coach because Shanahan's gonna be gone!

Uh. 20 plays in preseason aint much of a leash to already be comparing him to Jason Campbell...sheesh, have a brew!
