RG III Should Scramble Away From D.C.

[SolidSnake84]

I like the idea that RGIII could be our franchise quarterback, a young guy with tons of potential and the ability for us to groom. But i worry about how fast people will want results, are they willing to accept a couple of seasons of 3 or 4 wins while our new guy learns on the fly. Another thing is, if they start RGIII from the beginning, how patient will Snyder be with Shanahan if we regress again this year, even if it is for the long-term good. (RGIII, new receivers, etc....)

I would try and be patient if I saw good things out of RGIII. I feel this is totally a different situation than when we drafted Jason Campbell. Campbells stock was going to fall to possibly the 3rd round or later, yet Gibbs still traded up to get him, something no other coach would have done. Other than a few lucky moments, Campbell I dont feel ever showed that "it", that you look for in franchise QB's. He looked like a backup QB who was suddenly starting. And lo and behold, 7 seasons later, he is relegated to a journeyman backup QB who is signing one year deals.

I'm not hating on JC i'm just saying I hope people can accept waiting for at least a little while to see if RGIII is the real deal before saying the skins are a failure if we win only a few games for the next couple of seasons...
