RGIII: "Media trying to Character Assassinate Me"

I waited a couple days before I posted this but felt I needed to share wit you guys since it hasn't hit the National media:

 

 

http://thebiglead.com/2013/11/24/mike-silver-rgiii-asked-the-redskins-not-to-show-his-bad-plays-in-film-study/

 

 

“Inside the building, we talked to people familiar with the situation, they perceive RGIII as kind of insecure, specifically about Kirk Cousins, which may be one reason he (RGIII) was so eager to rush back. At Baylor (University), they didn’t put RGIII’s bad plays up on the board in the meeting rooms. Sources familiar with the situation say he has asked the Redskins to do the same. They have refused to up to this point.”

 

After this story broke on Sunday afternoon, and then the piss-poor effort on Monday Night Football by the Skins,

this story came out after his press conference in reference to the above story:

RGIII - "People are trying to character assassinate me and that's unfortunate."

 

 

I just felt like this is so humerous because what the media has done with him is all self inflicted. The media has raked Cam over the coals for 3 years and only recently have shed a positive light on him- Oh, it only took and 8-game win streak to do so.. but RGIII is such a media darling it makes me laugh but makes me upset after the stuff he has done to himself and then wants to play victim.

Man up, RG.  Go out there and silence your critics.  It's what Cam did.  Cam went through much more than this dude did, and I don't remember him crying "the media is trying to character assassinate me."  Although unfair, he took his licks and has so far silenced the haters.  Now, I see why some call him RG ME.

If it weren't for stat padding against prevent defenses this year when getting blown out RG3's stats would be abysmal.

I think he will have a good year next year if he doesn't get hurt again. But this s year he has been bad. Not just a slump, but really, really bad

Cam didn't once play victim. He took his lumps, played through it, Earned his C patch (unlike rookie Bob3 who was gifted it) and look at Cam now. Lil Bob is definitely gettining Cammed right now, but he's doing nothing to help his image by crying about it.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
