I couldn't agree more. The Skins didn't give up everything they did for RG3 for him to still be the huge question mark that he is.
The thing that really bothered me about Sunday is that RG3 didn't really seem any better that Teddy Bridgewater. I know RG has his injury issues and lack of playing time but his accuracy and footwork are not very good and his pocket presence is as bad as Jason Campbell. I think the rest of the season has to be used to see if RG can improve these flaws and move forward.
I think with the pocket stuff, you either have it or you don't. You can just tell that Bridgewater is a natural at it and it comes easy for him to stand in there. He had pressure a few times and avoided it by climbing and using footwork. I rarely see Griffin do this. IMO that's why he's sacked so much. It's just something he's never going to be great at. But I still thought he did more good than bad, a lot of positives from a long lay off.
