Instead he has to constantly throw little jabs at Shanahan. I love RG3, but lately I've been seeing a little diva in him.

He's 22/23 years old, a millionaire, married his college girl, adored by hundreds of thousands of fans (camp was ridiculous with everyone shouting out his name), and very good to great at his chosen profession. If he only has a little diva in him, then that's another amazing thing.

I really haven't heard him throw the coach under the bus. He's asked his opinion, which is that he wants to be out there now, in fact yesterday, but he acknowledges the coach makes the decision. Isn't that the appropriate use of boundaries? For him to say he has done everything he can, I think is a fair statement by all accounts. Now the coach has to make the decision for the team. How is that throwing the coach under the bus? He didn't storm out, and say if the coach doesn't put him in, he's holding out. He's not doing situps on his front lawn to show the coach up. He does what he can every day, and then lets the coach make the final call.

For me, that's the way it ought to be.
