1) KC is playing well and team is winning-why rush RG3 back and disturb the groove

2) KC is playing well and team is losing-if they're losing like out of it then why subject RG3 to unnecessary pain(and I don't think they'll be out of it in this division....I sure hope not)

3) KC is not playing well...WILL NEVER HAPPEN

How well can KC be playing if the team is losing? That's like an NFL oxymoron.

Anyhow, winning trumps all else. Even if KC is playing well and the team is losing, then he's still in imminent danger of being replaced by Robert when he returns. The obvious truth is that we can lose without KC and the applicable theory is that we might be able to win some games with Robert and his skill set.

If the Skins were to keep a relatively healthy RGIII on the bench when they are losing, Robert would go ballistic. There is no way that Gruden's relationship with Robert wouldn't be damaged by doing that.

Only way is if KC is losing even then seems crazy

After reading everyones comments, I cant believe what I have heard from most of you. Has RG3 really done anything for this team? Dont get me wrong, I like the guy. But he has pretty much been on the side line for most of all the seasons he has played in the NFL. KC has been there to take the reigns, and hasnt really let me down at all. He does pretty good for stepping in without working with the first string players. If it were up to me, I would keep him as the starter and wouldnt even look back.

For RG3, I believe he is done. He cant stay healthy. This makes how many time he has been hurt? I believe 3 off the top of my head. If he has been heart than many time in the last couple of seasons hes played. In my opinion, I believe he cant stay healthy.

When was the last time the Redskins made the playoffs? RG3 missed one game that year. Cousins came in the Baltimore game to score the TD after RG3 sacrificed his knee to get the team down the field. He got hurt taking us to the playoffs. What has Cousins done for the team?

Just as much as RG3 I guess. Making it to the playoffs doenst mean squat. Thats like saying some people make it to college. But if they dont finish, it doesnt mean anything.

Rookie of the year? Playoffs as a rook? Division title? All that doesn't mean anything? Ok.

Cousins is still in grade school using that logic.

So he made it to the playoffs his first year being a quarterback. Does he have a ring? Dont they play this game to win the big one, THE SUPER BOWL!

Everyone already pointed out the issues with the first statement, so I'll address the bolded part.

Griffin has started 30 of 35 games since joining the team in 2012. That's 85.7%. And three of the games he missed were due to being benched. So he's been on the sideline for roughly 15% of the games. In what world does 15% = 'most'?

[MTK]

RG3 hasn't done anything? Anything?

The whole truth, facts.....logic thing has become so tired.
Blah blah blah. A true fan has no need of
In 2012 Robert electrified the fanbase and it was a sweet ride! I for one won't take it lightly if he is unable to return to his original form. It cannot be denied that KC has shown some real talent on the field. My hope is we have our own version of Rivers/Bree's conundrum.
Let it plAy out and he truth will be revealed brother

The Rivers/Bree's conundrum is by far the best we can hope for. I remember Gus vs. Heath. When you add the letting go of Trent Green, and running Brad Johnson out of town, the franchise has a really poor record with QB's over the past twenty years. To be in the situation you describe would be the best possible outcome, imaginable.
