What is the likelihood of RG3 returning at full strength next season?

[TD_washingtonredskins]

I imagined the same type of RG3 career in my brain as well, bravo!

I really would love to see his career play out that way. For one, he'd become one of the best QBs in the history of the game. Secondly, that longevity would make him a generational face of the NFL. Lastly, well, we'd be pretty awesome for a very long time!

Probably of equal importance is how long will he be unable to practice a complete throwing motion, and keep his "touch." It's one thing to lose a little running speed, and quite another to lose your timing. I'll be following to see when and how often he resumes practicing with his receivers.

[HighOnHendrix]

The first two lines start off with the writer admitting he/she is not a doctor and then next admitting that they are a colts fan. I stopped reading there. I don't want to read anymore BS from the Colts fanbase. RG3 will be fine

You didn't miss anything.

His conclusion in the end:

You a Cowboys fan?

Naw, he's just timid.

[Boss_Hogg]

I think he should be held out through 2016.

Because we're all doctors here on ES.

Ugh, I hate idiots like you! Why are you going to rush him back for 2016?!

If Peterson, Charles, Welker, Brady are any indication, he should be fine. My only concern is the fact he's not going to be able to participate in an off-season throwing program or minicamps, probably a lot of training camp etc. As a QB going into his 2nd year, he's going to miss a lot of time of development. He'll have to really hit the books and develop his mind while rehabbing

I think we should just shut him down for good.

He clearly has a Hall of Fame resume as is

[ArmchairRedskin]

I'd be worried if this was RGI or RGIi.

This is RG 3.0 man. The latest and greatest model. I'm certain the upgrade will be done in time and his performance will be optimized.

A thread? I'm surprised there is not an App yet!

Im actually in the process of developing it.

I know, right?

The ES doctors are far more knowledgable than real doctors. That is just a fact.

Why are folks trying to rush RG3 back after he blew all three of his knees out completely? He won't be able able to throw the ball anyway, laying in a fetal position, traumatized by the injury.

Why can't they let the man retire in peace?

I dunno, I have a feeling he'll be practicing throwing plenty. It isn't like he is in a wheelchair and can't put any weight on his leg or anything. Remember, in college it was between when he had his ACL injury and came back from it that he went from being a very good passer to being a superb one. I think he's going to come back at least as good if not better than he was before, as far as passing goes. I do agree though that he can use some of this time to study and do film work, etc and I wouldn't be surprised if he were doing just that.

Some people need to come to terms with the possibilities of 1. RG3 not playing at all next season and 2. RG3 having a not-so-good season if and when he does play. As much as I hate to admit it, that article makes a lot of good points. I'm not saying those scenarios will happen but we, as Redskin fans, have to acknowledge that they're a possibility.

If RG3 comes back and plays as well as this season, great. But let's not get our hopes up folks. It will only hurt us further.

[NoCalMike]

Listen, and understand. RGIII is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop, ever, until the 'Skins are Superbowl Champs!

[beachboy757]

Hmm.. I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the little girl that jumped in the pool during rehab and told RG3 that she loves him. What if the impact of the splash would have bent Robert's knee the wrong way? She she not be so selfish the next time and think about her actions....

You're serious, aren't you?
