lol, yeah I'm stating the obvious. I think it's also an obvious decision to do what Bighair says. Sure we hate the idea of RG3 missing games next season. But haven't we learned about rushing the guy's knee back from injury? Getting him back soon as possible shouldn't be the goal. Getting him back 100% should be the goal.

MRI reveals torn LCL......I wouldn't rule him out for next Season AP is older than him.

Now it's more clear why Kyle said publicly he's "definitely" interested in exploring head coaching opportunities once Washington's season is over.

He knew RG3 would not be QB next season. I bet Kyle leaves the Skins for sure if given the opportunity.

Surgeon who worked/trained w/ Dr. Andrews told me chances of RG3 getting reconstructive ACL surgery in addition to LCL is close to 100%

Says LCL surgery w/out ACL almost never happens... also, The LCL/ACL recovery /rehab is tougher than Adrian Peterson's ACL/MCL..

No, man. I was being sincere.

No sense in hoping RG3 back next season at this point. Only because there is zero chance of him returning the 1st half of the season. Let him rest and heal, and he will.

We need to look forward to Kirk leading the Skins, and there is a very good possibility that we may not want RG3 back on the field if Kirk has us in 1st place when and if RG3 is ready to return. That probably does not sit to well with some of you, but it may very well be a reality.

I don't want to talk about knees anymore.

I just don't trust the Shanahans anymore. I agree with you and I wish I didn't. Let's Draft a rookie qb, start Cousins and know that we have our franchise quarterback ready to go in 2014. We can successfully develop our offense around that concept and still be better than we have been in the last decade and a half.

Sits fine with me.

We have to keep going forward. A bad thing has happened but we do still have another potential great QB in Cousins. Lots of great offensive weapons and a defense that showed tremendous heart especially in that Seattle game. Good things can still happen for the Skins. At some point we will get RG3 back, but until then we continue to go forward. As RG3 said " He, (RG3) is the best option for the Redskins" For now, Cousins is that best option.

Kinda of a gloomy picture.

ESPN said an LCL is 4-6 months and he'll be fine but if it's acl also it's most likely 9 months but then again rivers and ad played after 8 months

I get a sense you aren't the biggest RGIII fan. Or maybe you just want KC to be the guy which is fine that's your opinion. But IMO Griff will be back in 2013, and if he can't play right away I have full faith in cousins to get the job done

Agree 300%. hes gonna work his tail off like no other but we dont even know the extent or non extent of the injury lets see when we know then we can talk about return timetable. I want nothing more than #10 to be out there at some point in 2013 at 100%
