I said RG3 has to share the blame. And he has to share a lot of the blame, just like he would get a lot of the credit. I said it's not fair, but it's how it is. You're the #2 overall pick. Multiple picks were traded for you. The offense is a quick release offense that benefits a mobile QB so like it or not Rob you have to step up.

I dont recall saying RG3 doesnt deserve part of the blame. He flat out cost us the bucs game, thats not on anyone else. However, the Minny game is not all on RG3, not even close. He gets the blame rightly for that 4th down throw on the last drive, but no one will even mention the fact that we had a first down already if another stupid penalty hadnt been committed to negate a first down the play prior. No one wants to talk about our false starts on the very first play of a drive that happened several times against the bucs. Those are killers, especially with a young QB. But anytime I say other positions need to improve, here you come with the its the OL's fault meant as sarcasm and other people telling me im nuts that the ONLY problem on this team is RG3.
The fact is if we want to develop a young QB, we need massive improvements elsewhere. Now, If we can get Green Bay to trade us Aaron Rodgers... What are the odds of that happening?
Also, I frankly dont care if we have invested in it. I care if its good. Heres to hoping that Moses and Long develop correctly.
