Report: Commanders will release Robert Griffin III

[dallasdave]

I would be very surprised if Jerry doesn't bring RGIII over. He can't be any worse than what we have currently.

 

[Chuck 54]

I am 100 percent behind bringing RGIII to Dallas for a workout and chalkboard interview....it's stupid not to kick the tires on a talented guy who may be healthy for the first time in two years. If impressed and see a fit, a great veteran signing. Now, I'm not getting into a bidding war, but I don't think that's even likely.

For the right price, I cut both Cassel and Moore and sign him. Discovering the possible fit is why you have a workout and interview.

 

[Bleu Star]

It's a QB starved league, and when you're looking at Case Keenum or Mark Sanchez as your current #1 on the roster, dumber things have happened.

RG3's agent is going to try to blame mismanagement by the Commanders for everything. Its a matter if someone bites on that.

No one will bite. Lol

 

[dallasdave]

No one will bite. Lol

I know you saw this coming when you typed it but I can't resist...

This is the same FO that thought Weeden and Cassel could get the job done too. In fact they were actually talking up Weeden in the offseason, and gave him all of three games before yanking him.

Not exactly a confidence builder.

Perhaps the FO is not the one at fault, I know that's hard to believe. But maybe, just maybe, it was the poor coaching, game planning and player development that is to blame.

 

[JoeKing]

I know a lot of you want JG fired and at the same time don't want a coach killer like RG3 on the team. What sense does this make? If you want JG fired, a guy like RG3 is exactly what you want on the team.

 

[Stash]

It's going to be an interesting hunt this offseason for probably two QB's.

Yep. Likely our biggest stories of the offseason.

I very much hope that they acquire both an established backup and draft a rookie.

So, basically no matter how you slice it, those responsible for the past failures are still here.

The "established backup" is as much a fly in the ointment IMO as is drafting a talented QB, who could take command some day.

There just aren't that many, what I would call established back-ups out there.

I did notice that Colt McCoy is an UFA come March.

Think Colt McCoy would equal to a Jason Garrett back in his playing days?

LOL. Yes! Have to laugh so as not to cry.

He's actually the guy I had at the top of my own wish list. I think he's become a more than capable backup.

Give me he and Wentz and I'd be thrilled.

Art Briles seemed to have no problem coaching RG3.

You're a funny guy.

Because after he kills the coach he will still be around causing problems: doing immature press conferences, quoting scripture, getting pops and mom tweeting stuff, walking around smirking w superman socks

 

[Dorsett33]

Bring him in as a backup. We did have Cassell. We did have Moore. And a change of scenery may help him out. And those that say the Skins won the division with another QB...well, they won it by default. That team is not that good. Kirk Cousins had such an up and down season.

 

[JoeKing]

Art Briles seemed to have no problem coaching RG3.

Agreed

 

[punchnjudy]

Agree on Manziel.

Do you think he would sit for an entire season and not cause any sort of issue?

I question how he would handle the scrutiny here if he were ever named the starter for any length of time.

I think Griffin would do better in a smaller market.

Why would that be? Wouldn't the next coach kill the coach killer?

 

[LocimusPrime]

You would hope so but why chance it. Like a virus it might do too much damage before you get the right meds.
