Shanahan is about himself and nothing more. Anything he says about the Skins will be slanted to cast him in the best light or.......an outright lie.
Whichever makes him look better.

Gruden isn't running a different offense depending on the player, he isn't necessarily running an offense that fits RG3 though.

RG3 threw up all over himself on few plays Thursday. He either isn't making good presnap reads, or one move by the defense is causing chaos in his brain. He knows the line play isn't good, and he still isn't getting rid of the ball. He also isn't sliding laterally at all, there is alot to look at and just not like.

As for Shanahan, he didn't improve our personnel. I mean they are rebuilding from his rebuilding.

Not really. He didn't say anything bad in the interview, and mind you, they asked him about it.

“To be honest with you, you don’t get to study him on a day-to-day basis,” Shanahan said. “I don’t look at his film every day. But I can give you an opinion after my first year when I was there: you get a guy like Robert who’s been with an offense, very comfortable with what he did in college. He never had a playbook. Never had two-level throws or three-level throws. So you could see very quickly that was going to take some time.

“But you had a guy that had some great athletic skills, a guy that was very smart, a guy that was into the game,” Shanahan said. “And what you try to do is utilize those talents and go with it. You know, some guys, at the end of the season — like Robert did — he felt like he was a little bit more of a drop-back passer than a few of us thought. And now he’s going to have a chance to go out and prove himself.”
He's accurate. It's why I would never draft a spread offense QB highly and expect anything soon.
