Re: Gameday Thread: Browns vs. Redskins

I think Gruden has made it well known that Griffin needs to protect himself better. Griffin knows it too. What else needs to be said? Griffin needs to make it happen.

My son is super active like never sits down always wants to be doing stuff. We had him checked out he is fine just likes to move around.

I am always disciplining/yelling at him to stop running; especially indoors.

My dad said one day you are pissing into the wind with the yelling; asking him to stop running is like asking him to stop breathing. IT is some how in grained into him.

I think the same maybe true for RGIII.

I think you just let him do what he does and if that means shorten his career then that is what it is. I rather 5 years of an awesome RGIII then 8 years of handcuffing him.

Eventually father time will take the speed from him and it will be up to RGIII to be able to be a "pocket passer" in order to stay in the league.

Re: Gameday Thread: Browns vs. Redskins

Gruden and Griff are baffled by the two false start calls the other night.

Washington Redskins baffled by Robert Griffin III false start flags - ESPN

My problem with the call is the inconsistency across the league with call. Watch Brady and Big Ben do the same damn thing with their shotgun calls and snaps. They constantly move...just complete bs imo.

or peyton when he barks out an audible or hard count, then jerks his body forward and moves up to either side of the center to make sure they hear his audible ... like everyone else i imagine those false starts by RG3 dont get called in the reg seasons but during preseason the nfl wants to over flag it to make it a point of emphasis.

Do you think RG3's cleat doesnt get caught during that 1st slide if he was playing on different/better turf? i do

But if there were big men chasing your son looking to rip his head off every time he ran around he would probably get the point.
Griffs future and millions of dollars are on the line every time he is careless like that. I mean the guy is finally healthy, and in a meaningless preseason game (when the starting qb job is not even remotely an issue), he is reckless beyond belief over a couple of yards? Total head scratcher at this point.
Edit: as a Dad im glad he is just active n there are no issues.
