re: Why does RG3 get so much hate?

---

This year they shouldn't allow him to play the running/scrambling game he plays. The guy isn't 100%.

The guy can't read a defense for shite, gets panicked and takes off running. That's not an offense, it's Pop Warner football.

He's incapable of checking down through his progressions to find the short, safety throw, throwing the ball away, getting out of bounds before getting hit when he does run or sliding when he can't make it to the sideline. He's a mess.

And despite these FACTS, he's got an ego the size of the Washington Monument, a phony "good guy" image that is slowly being revealed, and no one in his family or management team/posse to tell him "no."

As for not being "100%" - whose fault is that? He, his daddy and Team RGIII spent all the off season on a PR blitz intended to draw attention to himself and portray him as "tough" and "all in" and a great "leader" because he wanted to play the first week of the season. He essentially dared Shanahan to try and sit him for the first few weeks of the season and let him continue to heal. This same ego and hard head helped get him injured - and then injured even more - at the end of last year.

The Native Americans screwed this whole deal up - he's not a franchise QB and wasn't worth the pics they gave up to get him.

And while I'm not a fan of Shanahan, it's sad to see him choose to protect and tolerate a douche like RG Diva III to try to save his job.
