I think he is waiting to see if injuries increase interest.

I think RG3 wants to stay here because he still believes that his best chance to be a starter is here in DC.

To be fair, alot of people were wrong about Griffin.

I imagine running the ball regardless of result, but what else?

Response cont.

Run game: The game can carry over for the most part. The game plan for Suh can be applied to Donald.

Overall run game thoughts:
(1) Commitment to the run. Its gonna be needed because the Rams are actually betteragainst the run then Miami.

(2) Running creatively. If base run game fails/struggles (don't count on our TEs to block the POA) there need to be contingency running plans. I think running from spread i.e. forcing the defense to take a LB or DT off the field through personnel groupings and alignment

Passing game: The Rams secondary is average. There is no Brent Grimes or Rashard Jones. The quality of their pass defense is a function on their pass rush. Looking at the numbers and personnel Miami's pass defense is better then the Rams.

Moreso then the Fins this game I can see the passing game being more of a factor and putting a little (not the whole game but a little) more on Kirk's shoulders to attack their secondary.

Like Bill Parcel's used to say 'think players not plays'. And the forgotten man in our passing game has been Garcon. I want to see Pierre involved in the gameplan early so he and Kirk can start to feel good and get a rhythm. Something easy like a screen and a hitch. But Garcon needs help through scheme to get open. Its something Kyle did very will, stack formations, bunch formations etc. There need to be 'Garcon' specific plays early and often.

Keep using Reed, especially use him to help identify coverage. Move him around, split him out wide. Involve Carrier in similar fashion.

I think the next man up is not Ross or Roberts but Grant. To complement Garcon it helps having someone out there that can run the route tree AND can seperate on their own without the aid of scheme.

Say Cousins ends up failing, we fire the coaching staff, bring in new ones: do we give RG3 MORE time with a brand new system?

I believe that would rank as one of the single dumbest moves the franchise could make

Damn, that's what I wanted to say. I thought you were taking a break? (I'm assuming you won't because the Redskins are like a chain on the ankle. Even when they suck you want to break free but they are juuuust interesting enough to keep you hanging around.)

But seriously, I mean I can't believe this conversation is happening right now. This has been a shitshow of epic proportions yet here we are discussing whether or not RG3 might actually get his umpteenth shot to prove he doesn't suck. I'm going to let this video do the rest of the talking for me. Here's to those of you who won't let it go:

Seriously.

It's so over with RG3, at least it better be.

Why are we keeping this dude on the roster now? He is hurting the back end of the 53. We have injuries all over our team and the defensive backfield. We are possibly going into the STL game with 3 QBs and 3 DBs. Yeah we have like 5 safeties? But still that doesn't make any sense

At that point Scott and his newly hired HC would need to draft 'their' QB.

Griffin would need to re-structure and understand that he's returning to compete for the job. It would be akin to 49ers with Harbaugh and Alex Smith.

Bad message to the locker room and he has the type of personality which will alienate his team mates, fan base and FO. Unfortunately to an extent RG3 is a victim of his own success that first year. 2012 is a long time ago.

At least we only have one person in here that doesn't realize that.

Thats what scares me the most. Snyder believes that he hired the wrong people to work with Griffin and so he believes that another staff could do a better job with RG3...
