I think he will be up to speed and be completely healthy physically, but I would be shocked if he came back completely the same right away in all the aspects of football. Two of the best quarterbacks/competitors ever in Tom Brady and Peyton Manning needed time to feel completely comfortable after their respected surgeries. Even RG3 struggled some the first time he came back from a knee surgery at Baylor after he won Big 12 freshmen of the year and everyone that watched college football thought there was something special about him.

I'm not saying its impossible that RG3 comes back especially since he has gone through a similar situation before, but I am not expecting it and would still be pleasantly surprised by it.
