Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

30gut, you're not about to go down that long and tiresome road again are you?

DYoungJelly, I can hardly believe you asked him that question. Didn't you see the trip wire across the trail?

Next topic, please!

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

no team is going to mortgage their future trying to build around a guy that's showed no progress in being an NFL QB and has his injury history. they might add him as a backup and throw in some option plays and let give him 5 snaps a game as a change up, but no one is going in whole hog on a guy that's now in prove it mode.

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

No progress? Griffin only played 5 games in Jays offense before he got benched of those 5 games only 2 were bad. You say no progress; I say not given time to develop.

Whether a team goes whole hog or not only time will tell. Right now a team would be able to acquire a very talented QB for very little cost.

That is getting real tired.......

And the season before under Shanahan trying to be more of a pocket passer, than he was 2012. And he was bad to mediocre in all of 2014, except in garbage time against Dallass the last game.

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

we still have rg3 apologists after all this time? he's proven he still can't read a defense, and reports from cooley and players on the team is he spent this last year on the scout team just going through the motions instead of making a real effort to get better. he's all hype and maybe andy reid can fix him, but anyone that thinks they should build their team around him at this point should be immediately fired.

RGIII is a major project.

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

I am going KC chiefs too.

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

Only seven more days.
Pretty sad ending for our investment.
Back in the day I told anyone that would listen that he was going to take us to three superbowls.
My wife likes to "remind" me of that.

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

At this point, 2012 is soooooo 2012.

I say Chiefs as well if RGIII can accept sitting for another year.

If he wants to start, and will only sign with a team giving that opportunity ... hellooooo Cleveland.

I agree. I was all in on RGIII and really, really wanted him to succeed. I kept holding out hope through last year's training camp but then he played in preseason and it was plain he simply had not progressed. I can still remember how dejected I felt when it became clear he was just not going to be the guy.

I wish him the best. Thanks for the magic of 2012. Good luck wherever he lands. With that said, I will be very surprised if he does anything other than end up a mediocre, journey man QB.

RG will be totally out of the NFL in 2 or 3 years

While Cousins was benched in 2014 he hired his own QB coach during the season. Who does that? Never seen anyone do that during an actual season. Cousins was determined to get better.

Not sure what Griffin was doing all year long, but I know he wasn't going to the lengths that Cousins was. Not saying that this is wrong by Griffin. I just get the feeling with him that he probably thinks nothing was ever his fault.
He was outplayed the last TWO pre seasons by Cousins and that's why he lost the job for good.

Griffin can probably still run pretty fast and throw it far. He might look good at the combine and pro days. But when the rush is actually coming at him, and he has to drop back 5 - 7 steps, he's exposed. The instincts to play QB aren't there. So to me it doesn't matter what his physical skills are, his skill to actually play QB are not there.

It is the HC prerogative to bench whomever he likes. But he was indeed benched after 5 games. It turned out good because Cousins proved to be quality QB.

I doubt a team trades for Griffin either. The time to trade him would have been last year prior to the season.

I could see Griffin ending up somewhere on the QB carousel between Goff, Wentz and Kaep and the Browns, Texans, Rams, 49ers

Re: Predict RGIII's next team
 

if he's smart, he goes to KC, if he's dumb, he goes to cleveland. SF is somewhere in between. it might work out, it might be a disaster.
