This discussion isn't about developing a player. The player is being well-coached. This is about the supposed need for the HC to "believe" in a player who has been the starting QB for three seasons and has not performed well for the last two seasons. I say at this point it's up to that player to show the HC something he can believe in - that is, some on the field results of the coaching he's received. Then, perhaps the coach can start to believe in him. That is, if the coach doesn't already believe in the player which is something only the coach can truly know.

He is being well coached... now. And he is showing improvement. Enough improvement to keep him around in the future? That will only be shown during the real games. But to say Jay did everything to help him when he didnt even hire a QB coach in year one is laughable. I personally think Cavanaugh is having the biggest impression on RG3, not Jay. I think not having a QB coach has affected both RG3 and KC, since KC, in year 4, seems to be the same player he was as a senior in college.
And I still say its not up to the players to show the coach anything before the coach tries. The coach should be trying regardless. If it doesnt work out, move on, but the coach has to try regardless otherwise he is a failure of a coach. Some players will never get it, but the coach has to put in the time anyways. Why? Because they are getting paid millions per year to do just that.
I am expecting Jay (or any coach for that matter) to try to put the players in the best possible scenario to succeed. Again... If the player still fails, move on, but try first. Its his job to do that regardless.
