Re: How would you feel if Shanahan benches RGIII?
It would be the single most Shanahan thing he's done here. It would be the grand finale of a four year fireworks show that was not worth attending.

Re: How would you feel if Shanahan benches RGIII?
Trent Williams and Robert Griffin are a nice foundation for the future because it's expensive to find players at those positions, let alone good, young players. Certainly beats Jason Campbell and Stephon Heyer.
The difference of course is that in 2010 we had a mostly complete defensive unit and the ability to invest on offense immediately in order to win. The defensive end of the ball is now going to be a complete rebuild.

Re: How would you feel if Shanahan benches RGIII?
Too late. RG3 should have been benched in weeks 1-4 but instead he did his all in for week 1 thing and Shanny let it happen when he should have been putting the brakes on it. I'm fine with RG3 playing now so he can get more reps in live game action since there's nothing to lose by playing him.

Remember Al Davis and his news conference where he justified firing Lane Kiffin. Al was ridiculed. Turned out he was right and Lane was a weasel of boss proportions but, at the time, Al was torched by fans and commentators. Nope. Dan needs to sit down and let Shanahan expose himself as the egoist he is.

Perhaps he won't intervene with that decision, but that doesn't mean he won't decide to allow someone else finish the season as the head coach. |

It won't happen but it would be great drama if he just canned Kyle now. |

Re: How would you feel if Shanahan benches RGIII?
there are pros and cons to benching or playing rg3 at this point. either choice i hope the best possible outcome happens.
whether his stated intentions are true or false is anyone's guess.
