Do the Skins plan to surprise their opponents in the regular season with plays designed for RGIII, or is this it? If this is it, I don't think things are going to work out in D.C. for one or both of these men.

Griffin has said too that he wants to be more of a drop-back passer, and not be a "running QB" He likes the threat of the RO and to use it in moderation. So it's not so much that he's taking some sort of stand against Jay's offense. It's that he can't execute it the way Kirk and Colt can, and then he's goes "off-book" to what he knows best.
