Nobody damn near killed him 6-8 times. He damn near killed himself. Its nobodys fault the guy couldnt slide, get out of bounds, run away from pressure instead of into it, or step up in the pocket. Just sayin..... As for all this hoopla about his status on this team, well, obviously DS wants him to work. He isnt. I think ultimately DS wants to win though - that is the main thing. Just like alot of people on this board that are jumping off the Griff train before it derails another season so is DS i presume. Up until now DS and plenty of us fans were hoping that he would regain his confidence, health, and wits all at once. I think this preseason was finally the breaking point for all those including DS that were hanging on to some semblance of hope. |

Lol. Im trying my best to stay away from all the DS drama and "ultimatum" theories. There is no way the guy said anything like "start him or ur fired". Thats just stupid. But at the end of the day he is the Only Redskins fan that has millions of dollars riding on RG-3. So he is going to be the last "fan" to come to terms with it not working out. That is somehow being twisted into something that it is not. Its business and its big business at that. I can completely understand why he is so desperate to have it work. There is a touch of truth to every different side of this story, but even Danny boy has to eventually do what is rite for the team. Shit we field a winning team in the next couple years and we will all forget about all this crap real fast - and i think the Redskin fan part of DS is realizing this even if the business man part of him is still being a stubborn prick. |

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
You can't fire the GM and HC 2 weeks before the season. Just stop with this silliness. Snyder coaching the team is just laughable and there's no chance of it happening.
Now back to reality... Hard to imagine anyone trading for him at this point with his guaranteed $$ for this year and the injury guarantee for next. And of course they can't release him until he's cleared to play so that's not until the end of this week at the earliest. At this point I just don't see how they can kiss and make up. He's gotta go. Snyder might not like it but it the end he will concede. |

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
You know, It's just starting to hit me just how bad I miss Jack Kent Cooke. His death has followed me for almost 20 years.. Dan, if you read this, please listen carefully.. let the football people run the team. At this point, that's 80% Scot and 20% Bruce Allen. You are killing everything I loved as a child and living for the day you sell this team is one of the things I look forward to most in my life.

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
Man, this thread has jumped the shark with the whole dan firing everybody conspiracy.
Quote:
I'm with Matty here. Too much is done to move on, and Robert's ego and unwillingness to trust/learn is a huge obstacle. Time to move on. I say you cut him the first chance you can get. Let him have his fresh start, and let us rid ourselves of the future drama surrounding him if he's on this team during the 2015 season.

Being a Redskins fan is becoming painful. Not because of the losing, I can handle that, but because of the way we lose. I can't help but look back at the firing of Marty Schottenheimer and think that's where the wheels started coming off the wagon.. Get rid of RG3. Even if he's a decent QB, which he's not, he's such a distraction that the team can't focus on the task at hand. I like Scot and what he brings to this organization. I just hope that he gets the chance to get it done here and without Dan Snyder micromanaging him. |

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
We are the can't get right franchise.
We can't do anything the right way. I hope the reports are off base because from a football perspective it seems rash to say the least. But if the reports are true why can't they keep anything in house? |
