re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

Sounds like Robert could play if they absolutely needed him to. Said his knee feels "really good".

I love KC but of all the qb's that you could have used as an example of great careers - Troy? Lol
Edit: love the buzz cut - looks less like Beck

After that press conference i am very confident rg-3 will play. Took all first team reps and coaches liked what they saw. I suspect we will wait on an announcement to make the iggles wonder though.

re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

I say RGIII plays. He left very little doubt in his press conference that he is fine.
He did say in the press conference him sitting out last weeks game was a coaches AND doctors decision. So that claim it was only a coaches decision was not fully accurate.

re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

The people asking questions in the press conference were not very good. Nobody asked him if he will be wearing a knee brace if he plays this weekend.

re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

If it's up to RG3 he will play, and if it was up to him he would have played last week, thing is the call isn't up to him. I'm not sure which way this goes.

re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

The type of injury RG3 sustained takes 3-4 weeks to heal. He probably could play and his knee probably won't give him any problems. But it may be the healthier choice to sit Griffin out another week and allow Kirk Cousins to start again. The Redskins are playing a TERRIBLE Philadelphia Eagles team. We don't need RG3 this week. Play him the final game against the doo doo boys.....

How bizarre it is to hope that Polumbus starts.

re: RG3 cleared to play (update)
 

Sounds like Monty and Tyler will play. Monty is in pain but can play through it.

[quote=los panda;977867]i hadn't heard that either. he looked good to me in warmups, maybe not "himself", but he was moving around very well. if he was in pain, he wasn't showing it[/quote]

FWIW, Campbell's statement regarding the doctors clearing him was more of his opinion/reading between the lines based on things he'd heard as opposed to a definative statement of a source on record. Still, the guy seems pretty tuned into things generally.

He did definitavely statedthat the coaches were not pleased with Griffins perforance in practice last weekas he lacked his normal mobility and was very tentative when planting his foot.

He also said Griffin was very upset about not playing because all season, not just because he felt he could play, but because all season he's been surrounded by veterans who have toughed it out and played through worse injuries. He respects London Fletcher and Trent Williams, and, as a leader of the team, wanted to show his team mates he was just as tough as those guys.

Personally, i think Griffin could have played Sunday and would have been mobile, despite the pain. In hindsight, we can all be glad he didnt play, because we won the game and he's had extra time to heal. While i think the hits RGIII takes now will come back to bite him later in the year, i dont think anyone doubts that RGIII would play through pain - and at a high level - if he had to.

This is great news. While ive been vocal about my dissatisfaction with the line here, i think the only reason we've survived with it is because the same 5 guys have been lined up next to eachother all season. With any luck, they'll be able to continue doing so for the next 5 weeks, and get some rest during the bye before the superbowl :)
