One long run on his part and the defense will pay attention.

Thats true but you can coach smart.Can you imagine the criticism coach would face from the media and the fans if we came out using RG3 like we did last yr?
Besides the criticism,do you really want them to come out using him like that?
I know he didnt get hurt on a designed running play,I dont need told that.But he still got hurt running with the ball and took a hit a normal persons leg would have snapped off.Giving him designed running plays just open him up that much more for something like that to happen.
If he had no prior knee surgeries I wouldnt be opposed to it,but after 2 on the same knee I dont think its very smart.I want him healthy and utilize his speed to avoid the sack and if he needs to take off running to do it so be it but go out of bounds or get down quick.

Yes one long run would make defenses pay attn,but how often does that happen? Is it worth exposing him over and over for 1 long run that might happen?
From what I can tell reading your post you think RG3 is almost superhuman or invincible.He is head and shoulders above most people but he's just as vulnerable as any other qb,2 knee surgeries on the same knee in 4 yrs proves that.
I'm not against him running it some,but 10 carries a game is way too much
I'd like that number to be 3 or less
