Not every athlete. But in my opinion a lot of them do qualify. Maybe I'm just getting older and more crotchety, who knows. Guys like London, Santana, Kerrigan, Rak, Morris, etc. who just put on their hats and go to work are the type of players teams need to succeed. Yes, certain positions require some confidence, even cockiness, but some players take it over the line. Griffin, for me, has not taken it too far yet, but some of the things I hear from him and see him doing are a bit eyebrow raising.

I'm definitely not as down on him as tshile is, but compared to a guy like Alf...

Again, just my opinion.

He's had a pretty quiet and routine offseason from what I've seen. What exactly is he doing that's eyebrow raising?

Well yesterday he obviously took some shots at the Shanahan's and this easn't the first time he's done that. Like he wasn't part of the problem last year. He just needs to shut up about last year and not say anything. It's over and done with.

I wouldn't call it a shot, more like a small poke maybe.

Considering all the BS he had to put up with last year with his name being dragged through the mud, he could have said a lot worse and overall I think he handled it all pretty well.

I think a lot of the negative things attributed to RG3 were overblown or from his people/family. I also think some of it was straight lying from the Shanahans.

What did they say about him because I have never heard them utter one bad word about Bob .

off the field he's a raging douche at this point. the fact that he has so much influence over the organization is deeply concerning to me right now.



i hope 2012 was just a small sample of what he's capable of on the field, because off the field isn't looking so great right now.



oh and remember how last year he was like 'I don't need preseason'? Someone obviously talked to him, he did a 180 the day after. But for a split second we got a clear view of what his mentality actually is.

First of all efff Shanahan, second of all did he actually say he doesnt need pre-season?
How is he a raging douche off the field? He does not have control of the organization, but we traded away alot to draft him and he plays the qb position. He is basically the centerpiece of everything we want to do going forward. Of-course we are going to cater to that. We would be foolish not to.

One or both of the Shanahans deserved a lot worse than anything Rob or anyone else in the org has said. The behaviour last year from them was pathetic.
