Wow anything new to report ?
No s***. We all knew that
Hahah Robert is hillarious when he is negative…hahaha this is the most ive liked robert since he left the Redskins. Robert is more realistic and honest, it is soothing because most coaches and analyst talk in circles and nonsense
If only RG3 had this mindset back then. Of course he probably wouldnt be able to have this mindset if what happened back then never happened. Sometimes experience is the best teacher.
hindsight is 20/20 Captain Obvious! 🥴
I can't wait to still be hearing from this man in 2032 about all the mistakes he made back in 2012
Didn’t RG3 want to play with the injury the most? Like doctors, coaches, everyone said no. Robert said yes let me play! Ofc now he’s gonna regret that
No1 wants to hear ne thing rgknee has to say
BS ! RG was never as skilled as Kirk Cousins. Kirk Cousins won the last 3 games they were expected to lose. Everyone learned that Cousins was by far a superior QB compared to RG. Cousins wins propelled us into the playoffs. RG insisted on playing because he was fearful of folks realizing that Cousins was a superior QB. Rumor was DANIEL Snyder loved RG because he sold so many jerseys. Coaching wanted to stick with Cousins, but Snyder overruled. RG was exciting when he ran, but had the worst passing mechanics of any NFL QB in modern history. If you play golf you’ll understand that RG had the passing “yips.”
I am a die hard skins fan. I can 150% assure everyone, the end of the season Dallas game, rg3 was on 1 leg. It was bad. Couldn’t believe he was playing
Imagine if he didn’t play through that injury?? Man we would be great right now!!!!! The Shanahans RUINED RG3!!!!!
