So is this the kind of injury that will drastically change his style of play or can he bounce back like AD?

he better hope he can make it back before training camp next season. Or these is what will happen:
-Cousins will start next season and if he has a great start, you best believe RG3 will be on the trading block

It is not hyperbole. If you know the NFL, you know that it is not that farfetched.
Think about it, if Shanahan really believed in the QB he gave so many picks for, he would have drew up the same Gameplan he drew for Cousins against Cleveland. But he didn't, which means he doesn't believe that much in his "star" QB's abilities. If COusins the QB he really wanted(as SAS has told us time and time again), get of to a hot start then best believe RG3 will be on the trading block.

THis is a what have you done for me lately league. This same shyt has seen countless QBs being reward 40-100 million dollar contract.


RG3 had a damaged knee and was clearly hobbled but Shanahan kept calling designed QB running plays.


Remember what Steve Young was saying after RG3 obliterated the Eagles and people were saying Young was unnecessarily criticizing Shanahan(and Griffin to a lesser extent)?

What happens if one of the training wheels fall off? you can't keep riding the bike on 3 wheels. That is why he was saying that at some Shanahan would have expand the offense to develop RG3. Once the knee was busted he should have called for more play action and drop backs and less running plays. But he never did that.

Griffin has a torn lcl and will have surgery friday they will see during surgery if his acl is torn because the mri's and 3 different doctors said the mri's were inconclusive

They believe his acl could be torn too but they won't know until friday so basically it's an lcl surgery/exploratory surgery

lol at having lcl torn but ACL isn't torn.

They are trying to put a spin on a bad situation.

99% of the time if your LCL is done so is your ACL

Just relaying what I read b

This thread is nothing but speculation and a bunch of stupid shyt with no updates or links

Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III will have surgery to repair a tear of his right lateral collateral ligament on Thursday or Friday, and James Andrews, the surgeon, will determine at that time if there is additional damage to the anterior cruciate ligament, Griffin's former coach at Baylor, Art Briles, told USA TODAY Sports.

"They're going in to tighten up the LCL and look at the ACL," Briles said Tuesday. "And hopefully, there's not much if any damage to the ACL. If there is, they'll fix it. The future is bright, because I know Robert. I know his heart, I know his passion. And he'll be fine."

A person with knowledge of Griffin's injuries told USA TODAY Sports three doctors have looked at Griffin's MRIs and have not been able to determine the full extent of his injuries and whether the injuries revealed by the MRI are new or old. That person requested anonymity because the Redskins have not made the disgnosis public. Griffin is expected to have the surgery performed in Pensacola, Fla.

Robert Griffin III needs surgery on LCL; maybe ACL, too

:snoop:


Cousins and RG3 ran the same offense. The only difference is Cousins was coming from under center and not doing read option stuff. The Pistol is just a formation, not a set of plays.


And I hope Cousins ball next year, but I have my doubts. On top of that RG3 was the leader of that team.

so why did he have him run designed QB runnin' plays while he knew that dude's knee was busted??
