And yes, the data supports the coaches making adjustments towards the end of the season but, he still ended up getting hurt. So what does that really mean?

It means that he has to play a smarter, better brand of football.
The guys I always compare RGIII to are Steve Young and Steve McNair. Steve Young learned to scramble and run with a purpose. McNair learned to beat people from the pocket.
If Robert can make that transition he's golden.
But hey, injuries happen. He could've gotten injured on a 5-step drop from under center.
