Hey, if HueJack would just give him a fair chance maybe he could still be good.

Re: Around the NFL: Training Camp edition
 

Watched some you tube on RGIII's plays, just b/c. Just not seeing it. Same old same old.

Man, I sooo wanted him to succeed for us. Now, I'm torn - as much I don't wish the guy ill and hope he does okay, I just don't want to have to listen to the "See, Washington is just stupid, once he left, RGIII was a great QB" crap from everyone and their brother. Particularly, I don't want to hear it from the Skins' "fans" who seem to revel in our screw-ups or who think they are so much smarter than the guys who do this for a living (and BTW, whose living is dependent upon their choices).

At this point, he's a good guy who has a ton of money and who will undoubtedly make financially sound decisions. Even if he bombs in the NFL, I highly doubt we will be seeing him on the next "30 for 30 - Players who are broke." So, I lean towards the "Just get him out of the league so we never need hear of the drama again."

Even still, he fascinates me like a car wreck on the other side of the median.

[quote=htownskinfan;1145573]I dont think RG3 will be injured before 4th game,I think he will be :benched:

Just finished watching 1st half of cowboys game and I'm not happy.I think Kellen Moore did cowboys a huge favor when he broke his ankle and moved [B]Dak Prescott[/B] to backup.
Dak looked great,he looked very comfortable and confident and his throws were right on the money with nice touch. Kid looks like he can run if needed but I havent seen him run yet and he hasnt really been pressured.So until we see him with pressure in his face and more playing time he cant really be judged at this time.And this wasnt 4th qtr scrub stats,he started the game.
Very impressed with his resume.[B]Unfortunately I think the cowboys might have found the heir to Romo[/B].
I know I know way too early to tell but I'm impressed[/quote]

We just need to pummel that kid when he inevitably comes in for Tony "Owie" Romo. Beat the crap out of him so that he hears Ryan Kerrigan's footsteps in his sleep.

He's going to need to change his ways then or Norman/Breeland will eat him alive.

[quote]DGB made a key block on a 71-yard touchdown run by DeMarco Murray in Saturday night's preseason game. But later, on a go route when the Titans wanted to throw deep to Green-Beckham up the left side, he didn't run hard off the line.

"I think we made too many mistakes with DGB early [Saturday night]," head coach Mike Mularkey said. "I would have liked to see him have a chance to make that play on the go route. I thought his release was poor, which immediately gives you no chance on the deep ball."

Robinson, who traded Green-Beckham to the Eagles on Tuesday, wants nothing to do with that sort of effort and mentality. It's a mentality, by the way, that will get Green-Beckham crushed in Philadelphia by a far less-forgiving fan base.[/quote]

I remember reading this about him last year as well - great talent, needs to step up his work ethic to be something other than short term mediocre.
He's got talent and measurables - no doubt. However, he's not going to DJax a corner and will need to outwork them. I bet Norman/Breeland have his tendencies studied and down pat by the time they play.

Yup. I will admit I'm slightly curious about why, because I always felt RG3 had his shit together off the field. Either way bet his soon to be ex-wife will get a nice settlement out of this. Maybe she's unhappy with his fall from grace.

Ignoring the Cowboys part of this story, I will be interested to see how the data collected is used going forward:

[QUOTE]... The league is already using the Next Gen Stats platform to capture real time location data, speed and acceleration for every player, every play on every square inch of the field.

Seems like if the ball and a player's shoulders can be tracked within inches, then ball placement questions ought to fall away very quickly.

Far from it. His marriage began and ended with questions of his personal character, and fidelity. He was allegedly sending shirtless pics of himself and his other areas on the day of his wedding to a hooters waitress who has since gone on record and given her side of the story. RG3 was as drama filled as anyone could be but yet like time and time again we totally looked the other way because of his one-time god given athletic gifts.

There are not very many athletes who invite more drama into their life's then RG3. So glad it's the brown's problem and not ours. I saw a photo of the house he had for sale in the DC area. He had a big sign on his wall that read "Family First" or something to that effect. Is it just me or is he looking more and more like a total tool with every passing day?

This is a great quote. Any number of things could have ruined their marriage. In my experience, and at one point i was pursuing a degree in Christian Counseling after i had completed my associate's degree, the most common reasons for divorce in new marriages (RG3 had only been married 3 years) is financial problems and lack of physical intimacy.

They obviously didn't have to worry about finances, so i wonder if maybe one or both of them had intimacy issues. He was, after all, looking elsewhere on the VERY DAY of his wedding. While that is for sure scumbag behavior, it is interesting to say the least how such a very young couple could just implode like that...

I'm really sick and tired of James Harrison and all the players that get worked up over how discipline is handled in the NFL.

I realize that how discipline is handled should be revised, but it becomes such a huge bargaining chip between the players and owners, that I feel the NFLPA should focus on other matters, especially those pertaining to player compensation and protecting players when they get released/traded, etc., etc.

Instead of complaining about player discipline, shouldn't they be worried more about the power of the franchise tag (which affects the market value for players) or put more restrictions on when players can be released. The latter to me is a big one, which no one talks about. Often players are released so late into free agency and the offseason, that they don't get a fair chance to find a job elsewhere.
