Didn't it take him almost two years to revert back to form? I remember a lot of people thinking he was done after that car accident.

Tigers knee surgery was at the end of June 2008, one week after he won the US Open over Rocco Mediate at Torrey Pines. BTW, that is the last major TW has won. That started TW's longest time away from competitive golf. Even when TW started his return he had to curtail his practice and play because his knee still gave him problems and didnt allow him to practice how and how much he needed to.

Watching film is fine but there no substitute for actual reps and building muscle memory. RG3 needed reps last offseason and he didnt get them. Hopefully he gets out of this season healthy and gets those reps.

Griffin has shown that he can plant on the forward foot and throw so doing it isn't a injury issue at this point. It is a mental error that he should not be making period. No excuse for poor mechanics when you show on one play you have good mechanics and the next one you don't. Sorry no excuses on this one. It is all on RG# not doing the simple things correct. What he can improve on is both mechanics and timing. Again all on him.

Not many QBs can play at a high level under constant pressure from rushing defenders, as RG's faced.

RG deserves a legit oline and at least another weapon downfield before we start doubting his future.

A win in prime time would go a long way to possibly getting things stabilized. This team is desperate for something good to go their way.

I know Kyle will never do this, but trash the RO, 3 men in the back field shit for a week. Spread out the field, mix in hurry up and run what he ran at Baylor. That's where he seems most comfortable. Run what he wants, not what they want. The season is lost so why not?

RO is deadly when used correctly. For instance...

On 2nd < 5 or 3rd < 5 we should be running more RO to put pressure on the LB's. Right now, we run a lot of RO from 1st down and try to "CATCH" the LB's out of position. Most teams are going to run 7 man fronts against us with blitz packages now. We need to force the LB's up, so the 2 man routes are open over top like last year.

Most teams are just rallying to the ball and forcing us in to 3rd downs were they know they have the advantage because our WR's are not much of a threat for separation.

We ran a more traditional offense w/ a blend of RO against the Vikings, and it looked beautiful. We did the opposite against the Vikings.

Is Mike Glennon already a better QB than RGIII? - NFL.com
