Good stats if interpreted correctly. Of course, if you're watching the game you don't need the stats. You can see the problem is mental.
Exactly. Arguments that RGIII dinks and dunks are just ridiculous. I too "saw with my own eyes" as balls went over the heads of defenders. Physically, he has all the tools.

I've said it before, I'll say it again, RG3 has the physical ability to be great. I also think he has certain leadership "it" factor intangibles that will work for him IF he can demonstrate the ability to learn the mental/instinctual aspects of the QB position and win on the field.

However, we are four years into it, he has suffered multiple injuries, and he has demonstrated a lot of immaturity/divaness at times. I am pulling for him and I think the team Scot McC is trying to build is the one that will help him take the next step. At the same time, he needs to demonstrate significant strides in understanding the NFL QB position.

Ultimately, I just don't know if he ever learn the proper "feel" the position. I don't doubt he's smart. I don't doubt he works hard and is willing to put time in the film room (yes, yes, I know the reports). Just not sure you can "learn" proper pocket instincts, etc.
