You and I both know that ain't gonna happen. RGIII has been annointed from above to be the starter and apparently fair competition is not to be allowed.

I will start this comment by saying that I'm not an RG3 apologist, I have very little faith in him and any of the QBs on our team. I also believe that Scot McC is just using these guys to buy time until he can get a QB of his choosing.

For those of you who keep focusing on RG3, here's what a struggling QB looks like behind a good o-line:

If the team wants to keep RG3 as their starting QB, I think they need to get him better protection than what he had last week. I highly doubt Cousins or McCoy would have been any successful under the same circumstances. And yes, RG3 struggled in the last series with the second team, but I think at this point he would have struggled against a defense made up of all of us given the beating he had taken.

I was also surprised to see McCoy running a read-option play and not RG3. I'm done with this team wanting to make RG3 a pocket QB. I remember last year in the first couple of plays before he got hurt in the Jacksonville game, RG3 looked much better since he was running the read-option and other plays that were a better fit for his skills.

Finally, I don't want to see three straight passing series in the preseason or regular season with any QB. If we're going to win any games, we need to limit the passing game and focus more on the running game period.

At least Tebow turned and took a very minimal hit instead of #10 who looks like a guy standing on the train tracks trying to commit suicide.

WOW!

Yeah, I've missed both preseason games, and when I read everyone's comments this is what I pictured. . . then I watched the highlights. He had no protection.

I don't know, maybe some of it his his "fault," but I imagine if this is an area that he needs to improve on, it must be pretty tough to do that when you get lit up every play after 3 seconds.

I'm just hoping our run game can get going early this season and take some pressure off of RG3 so that we stand some chance of getting something out of him.

To be honest, I am not sure that the protection will or will not make a difference. Common sense says it would. I just wanted to show what a struggling QB looks with good protection. What was saw last week was just brutal.

Robert is Mr. Snyder's golden boy(marketing scheme), as well as the most athletic QB of the 3 on the roster. Coupled with the fact of the price we paid to acquire him, the organization rather play out the sad tragedy that is probably going to unfold when Robert, gets hurt. If he gets hurt the organization can save some face and move on without admitting he was a total bust.
