McNabb thinks Griffin is overexposed


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

The irony of all this: Cam is actually the humble team player that respects his teammates, listens to his coaches and is open to advice. While: RG3 is the arrogant, self absorbed young QB, who threatens/guilt's his coach to play him during the playoffs.

 

He does this, when he knows he's on a bum leg. He's afraid of his back up. And because he know he has leverage with the starving DC fans, rooting for him. Much of it, no doubt due to the media constructed image, stemming from the tailor made gimmick offense the Shanahan's created for him, and Alfred Morris taking away any pressure. 

 

RG3 will get outed and experience his 'come uppance' soon enough. His type of hubris usually doesn't go unpunished for too long.

Now this is going too far. Way too far.

It doesn't matter what McNabb's reason was for saying what he said, doesn't make him wrong.

But seriously, Shanahan should hav took him out after the first two TDS in playoff game. If so, they prob would hav won. No matter the situation Shanahan still has to make that decision. Because he is the one taking heat for it now. If RG3 took himself out he would have got ragged like LT did.

he's not too far off, imo.

 

he may have been extreme in the phrasing, but there's a good bit of truth to it.

 

Agreed.

 

I'm not sure everyone is aware on the finer details of RG3's back story this season?

 

It was reported that, RG3 essentially guilt-ed Shanahan into playing him that last playoff game by saying, 'I'll never forgive you, if you don't play me coach'. Even the broadcaster mentioned it. That sounds selfish to me.  

 

RG3 also said to the media before that last playoff game at his presser: "I give this team the best chance to win", despite his bum leg, when discussing should he start/not play. This is curious, especially when it was reported by media who followed training camp, that RG3 was outplayed by Cousins (Of course, this is buried history now, until RG3 struggles). So why wouldn't he think Cousins could help? Hadn't Cousins won a game previously as well? Hmmmh.

 

And we all know, how Griffin handled the Cam question this season, especially compared to how Cam graciously responded to his own RG3 inquiry (and sought him out after the game). Griffin answered like a petulant child, regardless of what you wanna say about who he aspires to be. It also didn't help he lost the game. Let's just admit it. He showed his lack of maturity, diplomacy and grace there. He'll get better. 

 

Those are just a few tidbits. I'll stop here. Isn't that enough?

 

As far as Cam: Despite his media reputation, when has he ever thrown a team mate under the bus, questioned his coaches (when he certainly could on some Rivera 4th downs or punt calls), and spoke poorly of another opponent, mind you a  contemporary at his position? None, that I can recall.

 

What I said about Griffin earlier,  may have sounded harsh and direct to some indeed. However, it's largely true and indicative of RG3 as far as we know. And, despite what I've recently written, I don't dislike RG3 in the least. He's a good QB. No doubt.  I just think both his NFL QB skills, and media Persona, from what we've seen, heard and read, are a bit overrated, and stated (mind you, Ye Ole Good Guy Griifin, vs Evil/Bad Buy Newton routine by the media). That's all.  It's nothing personal. 

 

It is what it is.
