    My friend I have a feeling you didn't see very many Skins games last year because RG3 doesn't depend on running. I am guessing you saw ESPN highlights of runs he had. Does the threat of the run help, yes of course but he is not a running QB like Vick

    And that is what I am trying to get at. It's the threat of him running. It keeps defenses honest, and they can't play aggressive. What has RG3 done since his ability to run has been hindered? If he had to sit in the pocket as a pocket passer, without that threat, he is losing his job to Cousins.

    He is less then 9 month post surgery no player at any position would be 100%. Without the threat to run as you say this year he has thrown for 329,320,326,227 yards not to bad. The reason they are 1-3 is they have given up the most yards in NFL history in 4 games. He is not losing his job to Cousins, I don't know where you got that from

    Because Cousins is a better quarterback from the pocket. The reason the dude has those 300 yard games is because he is throwing the ball 49 times, 40 times, 50 times and 31 in his 227 game. He has 6 TD's and 4 picks. Throwing for 300 yards in today's NFL isn't what it used to be. He is average without his ability to run. Hell that Hoyer dude from Cleveland is chunkin up 300 yard games.

    I'm not even a huge RG3 fan, but for some reason you seem to hate him. You say Cousins is gonna take his job like its a fact but this is just you opinion. Cousins hasn't even taken a snap. If you truely think he is average then sorry but I can't respect your opinion. Cousins has played1 game against the Browns and you are talking like he's the next great QB. Having mobility is an asset to any QB

    derailing hell this is a runaway train WTF does RG3 or the NFL have to do with MSU-vs-LSU. Back on the rails now-----Hope we find/ figure out a defense before we hit the rest of our SEC games. If MSU had not run out of gas it could have been a repeat of UGA game. They could have drove a semi thru some of the holes our D line was giving up! Glad to pull away at the end but I was a nervous TIGER for 3.2 Qtrs.

    I don't hate anyone I just know that Robert Griffin is an average at best quarterback without his ability to run. You obviously have a man crush on him and that's fine, but quit acting like the dude is some premier qb, because he ain't.
