Re: RGIII Named Starter
30 gut, I don't think its the same, now if we had drafted Gabbert or Ponder, and said, well we weren't really looking at Locker, then it gets closer, but ultimately, Shanahan always says we got our guy, as does every good coach. They just don't flip as early and as often (unless your name is Jim Harbaugh)

Re: RGIII Named Starter
I do too. But DeMarcus Ware wasn't out there. Neither was Justin Tuck. Or Trent Cole. I didn't think he'd have any problems picking up the offense. We're talking about a highly intelligent person. Will he pick up the nuances of play QB? ... like Steve Young did and Michael Vick has done. Can he stay healthy? These are the questions that will be answered in Sept.

Re: RGIII Named Starter
I think John Keim hit the nail on the head here:
So now the Browns are letting it slip that maybe they weren’t that high on Robert Griffin III after all, according to an article on ESPN Cleveland’s site (by longtime and respected beat writer Tony Grossi). The report said the Browns felt perhaps he was a little small and too focused on showing how fast he could run. As someone who grew up in Cleveland, here’s what I have to say: Quit talking nonsense. Judge by actions, not words. And the Browns made a hell of an offer to St. Louis for the No. 2 pick and then complained when they didn’t receive a chance to counter and make a sweeter offer. That tells me one thing: They liked Griffin a lot. Perhaps they now love Brandon Weeden, and that’s fine. But don’t try to convince everyone you didn’t like the other guy. If that were the case, then there would have been zero trade talk. |

In Washington, 'The Franchise' is fitting in - NFC East Blog - ESPN
Articles like this make me really excited to see how RGIII impacts this team. Should be fun watching him play. |

Sapp said on NFL total access that he think s Griff will fail under shanny because Mike is to stubborn to change the offense.. guess we'll see

Re: RGIII Named Starter
I'll start listening to Sapp as soon as he starts learning how to manage his money

How does how he manage his money impact his opinion of a head coach's ability to adapt? That said I think it has been clearly demonstrated that the shanahans are giving strong lip service to playing to Griffins strengths. True or not we will have to see in the regular season.
