RGIII undergoing total reconstructive surgery: out 6-8 months

What’s Ahead for Robert Griffin III « Second Opinion (http://bramelsecondopinion.com/2013/01/09/whats-ahead-for-robert-griffin-iii/)

Good article.
I can't say it enough. I can't wait for Griffin to be back, but I think I hope he starts the season on the PUP list. I really want him and the coaches to be absolutely confident the knee is as good as its gonna get.

I would say that's a good estimate, but hey who knows. I wouldn't bet against him making back in time for training camp either. All depends on if he can avoid having any setbacks along the way.

Best case scenario: RG3 comes back fully recovered from this horrible knee injury.

Worst case scenario: RG3 can still play quarterback and his mobile, but can no longer outrun defenses 80 yards for touchdowns...

We can only hope that his knee can get back to mint condition.

Would anyones opinion on when RGIII should come back vary based on Kirk Cousins performance?

For example, if we start 0-3, Cousins doesnt look good, and RGIII is cleared to play, but still not moving as quickly as he has in the past, would you want him to come in, wear a brace, and pretty much be a pocket passer?

On the flip side, lets say RGIIIs recovery is slower than expected. Lets say we start the season 8-0, Cousins looks awesome, and the offense is in a clicking. Do you bench Cousins and let RGIII take his job back, or do you rest him for the remainder of the season so he comes back completely fresh in 2014?

No Brainer Here!!! If we are 8-0 with Cousins, I say give RG3 another season to rest that knee ;)

No matter what the situation, we cant bring RG3 back until he is really 100%

I'll take it a bit further, if Cousins brings us into the playoffs, then trade RG3.

I'm a fan of the time period it takes for him to get back to 100%, explosive, track athlete playmaker. Nothing less. He's far too valuable to risk any further. If he starts the season on PUP, so be it. Kirk can play at a high level if he's getting regular reps with the 1st teamers during the offseason and has a healthy Garcon, Fred Davis, etc to throw to.

Whatever scenario gives us back the pre-injury RGIII, that's the scenario I'm pulling for.

wait til he is 100% before throwing him into the fire.

please correct me if i'm wrong, but i think all of us here have total faith in kirk cousins

Trade all our best players so we can avoid any hope of success. Better consistent failure than occasional success.
