Quick RG3 update (next person to speculate on how much time he will miss without any kind of real knowledge will miss time of his own) (merged)

Your first mistake was sleeping on the Browns, they are not that bad of a team. They just had some bad luck.

Secondly, I don't think the mods are going to appreciate this thread title, but maybe you caught them on a good day.

If RG3 can go, we need to put him in.... Cleveland has given every team they have faced this year a fight.

[HeluCopter29]

I'll echo this because I think it's important we all understand this.

Cleveland is 5-7 and beat Pittsburgh. Granted, Pittsburgh with Charlie Batch. But they put 20 points on the #1 overall defense.

I don't know if I necessarily agree with all the talk about their defense, but we're gonna need RG3 to beat these guys. I love Cousins, but IDK if he can get it done.

[Joe_328]

Will be a tough week of planning and prepping for the Redskins this week. You have to have a game plan for using both RG3 and Cousins. Ultimately, will be a good thing for the Redskins.

Dude, I am well aware that Cleveland is not to be taken lightly,

Your OP says otherwise

[Tarpon75]

The NFL will probably review and fine him though. HTTR

Looks like about a 25k penalty to me.Mara will be ecstatic.

Robert Griffin III ‏@RGIII
"Your positive vibes and prayers worked people!!!! To God be the Glory!"


All Hail I love this guy!





Your sig, ?#11?

WOW Great spot mate.

It was photoshopped before the season began and before he was assigned a number. Will get that changed dude

[PortisBetts]

If he can play, he plays. Any team can beat anyone on any given Sunday. We need to put the best possible team we can put out there every week. If thats Griffin, great. If he cant go, its Cousins. Its up to Griffin and how he feels. There is no reason to take extra precautions for a knee sprain. Trent has been playing on a hobbled knee too. The positions are different obviously, but if he and the doctors feel he can play, even if it isnt 100%, then he plays.

[clskinsfan]

Cleveland is dangerous. They have a solid D and running game. That might be the formula to beat us actually. Keep our offense off of the field by running the ball. This game scares me more than the Ravens game. Because the Ravens D was a MASH unit.

[SkinsNoles21]

this thread blows.

[IrepDC]

Anyone during the game when RGIII was driving down the field after injury find themselves with their hands on their heads feeling like Griffin was going to kill himself before leaving the game? Oh and going "please stop,please stop" in a pleading fashion?

I actually was thinking, "This is about to be legendary!." Oh and I also was thinking, "Now people can see that he's just as deadly without his legs." I wasn't as worried about the hit, because I saw an eerily similar hit in the Baylor/OK State game last week, and the guy was back in the game on the next drive.

[SirClintonPortis]

Yeah you're right. One has a ligament problem in his second toe and the other guy had his knee hyper extended.. I wonder which joint helps you stand up and walk. Garcon walked off the field... Never collapsed, and no one knew he was really even hurt. Come on man. Don't even try comparing the two.

Those on TV did not know Garcon was hurt. But he was in-and-out right after he got the injury and he was limping a little. To say no one knew is an overstatement. Walking is also a very light task compared to what receivers are demanded to do.

[afkidd]

the rams were the rams...the panthers were the panthers...some people's children...

[SKINSFAN87]

regardless of the diagnosis, we rest RG next week.
It's Cleveland. We certainly can beat Cleveland without RG and if we cant how far in the playoffs could we go anyway.
Rest him in Cleveland. lets be smart.

Cleveland is not the pushover team that they used to be, if griffin is healthy enough to play, then he should play. I wouldn't overlook the browns at all.
