Why I'm Not Gonna Panic About Our QB

It's not being overplayed because no one is talking about it in the media. I'm not absolving RG3 of his wrong doings, but the OL is not helping this team at all. Hell, we couldn't even get a running game going against the Ravens, and that's something we managed to do last year.

And on the last play, he had all day to throw and still missed Reed wide open right in front of his face. Running out of bounds behind the line of scrimmage, still can't slide and jumping in the air on throws have nothing to do with the O-line.

Oh here we go. In the Ravens game, Flacco was under constant duress and had to throw some balls with Redskin defenders hanging on him. He still got the ball off and managed 160 plus passing yards in the first half. There aren't many elite O lines in the league and QBs in general are under immediate pressure when they drop back to pass. The good ones know where they're going with the ball pre-snap and let it rip.

Remember how bad the O-line looked with Jason Campbell behind it and how great it looked with Todd Colllins behind it? Same O-line, totally different results.

Exactly, ball has to come out and sometimes he's going to have to stand in there, take a hit and throw the ball. Or actually climb the pocket which he never does.

So Griffin is Campbell? And Cousins is Collins? Or is Griffin Collins and Cousins Campbell? Or is Colt McCoy Colt Brennan?

I really can't wait to see what we look like in Huston, nothing else really matters stats or points wise in the preseason. RG is our guy and we have to behind him. If we get to the bye week and have 2-3 wins then you can start thinking of making a change. But it all really depends on how he looks.

Let those naysayers in the media say what they want......Robert Griffin will prove them all wrong........

Its all preseason, im with the thread title, or a.portion anyway, no panic button untill we see live action

[Gary84Clark]

Cousins is about as good as he is gonna get. He is used to being a pocket passer but he is average or slightly above average. Once RG3 adds the pocket passer game to his game he is gonna be special.

So far, he answers properly, meaning he gives meaningful answers while still being guarded towards the media.

His responses in the linked video were very good. He does look awkward in a suit, so fashionistas unite!
