Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015

I think it's about time to end this circus. RG3 performance on the field has been below average over the last two seasons. If that wasn't bad enough all the drama that comes with him makes things even worse. The team would be better off with him off it.

Nothing short of a miracle keeps RG3 on the roster by week 1. I can't see them parking him at 3rd string, nor can I see anyone trading for him. That 16 million dollar option just kills his tradeability.

Picking up that option ironically doomed RG3 to end his tenure here with just getting outright cut.

Whatever happens, I just want it to happen NOW, and so we can move on and talk about X's and O's.

They could always deactivate him.

Was just talking to my brother about that one about 10 minutes ago. Also guarantees he doesn't end up in the division.

Man that would be awkward though....

We're already in full awkward mode. I think deactivating him makes the most sense right now.

Don't forget, how about them cowboys!! Romo is no spring chicken and Jerry would love to get him.

I would deactivate him and he'd be 3rd string. Maybe someone offers you a draft pick if a QB goes down. Cutting him loose makes no sense to me.

Cutting him loose makes sense to me because

1) The circus is over. You cut ties and say, "Hey Fresh start for both of us, just didnt work out, blah blah". It's over, the RG3 drama can end TODAY

2) How much value is a third string QB really? You're not gaining anything by keeping him. Just a distraction

3) He can still get hurt in practice. That means you are on the hook for the $16 million. No sense in taking that risk.

If only Snyder could see past his ego. See Sunk Cost Fallacy. The draft picks are gone. Never to be seen again. That ship has sailed. Suck it up and realize that sometimes things don't work out and cut the kid. Right now the distraction is just not worth any potential gain.

Bradford looked all world in his last game and Sanchez doesnt look horrible....why would the Eagles want Griffin, hes more fragile than Bradford.

It's pretty obvious that KC is going to be the starter moving forward. Gruden knew that Griffin wasn't his guy last pre season.

Lesson to be learned by Snyder. Stop being buddies with the players. They are your employees and it's your place of business. Treat it as such.
