He was throwing that into the endzone as if it was the last play of the game. It was a bad pass and a worse decision. . No way he was trying to throw that out of the endzone. All day long he was overthrowing people.

Change is inevitable

It looked stupid in college and it looks stupid now, and it serves absolutely no function besides trying to look cool. Visors are used by lots of players and they don't look stupid. Those 2 things are completely different.

He's in the NFL and is an adult, be professional.

That way when our POS coaches dig a hole and we need to score, he simply is playing football that he is accustomed to and has practiced for.

Or maybe he shouldn't suck so bad. He wouldn't have won rookie of the year without those POS coaches catering the whole offense around his skills, or lack there of. That blown pass to a wide open Paulsen in the 1st quarter tells you everything you need to know about his passing ability. Total weaksauce.

Corporate America(including the NFL, which is corporate America) wrecked the kid before he took his first snap in a live game for the Skins. The kid was overhyped from day one and was set for life with high profile endorsements before he played down one. Unless the franchise gets its house in order, RGIII will be just below Shuler in the all time Redskins busts. This kid could end up with the same record or worse than JC, unless we hit all aces in the next two drafts and actually do something in free agency. It is a god damn shame too, he has so much talent and potential that is going to be wasted if nothing less than a miracle happens in the next two seasons.

I'm really hoping a major reason for RG3's slump is: the rehab kept him from having a proper offeseason.

Last season he looked like the mega-trade was worth it. This season not so much. He can play well enough again if he can stay healthy.

The happiest I was about this Charlie Foxtrot of a game, was that we ran our RO/PA offense, and RG3 was extremely smart in avoiding hits. He can only do so much about the hits in the pocket, and late hits/contact. But he did great at not getting blindsided in the open, sliding when reasonable, still going for yards when reasonable.
