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.

    • If we divide the league up into quarters you need to be able to make 8 worse starting QBs for him not to be bottom tier. Who are they?
    • It just doesn't add up to what we're watching. It feels like you're trying to convince yourself that Bryce can just make a few adjustments and pan out. You say he turns the ball over because he's over aggressive and I just don't see that. A lot of his turnovers are just bad throws oftentimes because the balls sails in him. The fumble issues? I mean, you have the smallest QB in the NFL getting hit by extremely large powerful kej who knows based on film study that this guy is prone to coughing up the ball. If you're being hit by a much larger, much more powerful man intent on removing the ball from your possession you're gonna lose that battle a decent amount of the time. I think some of it is due to bad footwork but some of it is also that when there's traffic in front of him he has to try to get the ball up and over that pressure due to his lack of height. His release point it just several inches lower than most NFL QBs, no way around it. You saying it's more difficult than simply looking at outcomes while completely leaning on situational stats to try to convince people their eyes are lying to them and Bryce's arm isn't a significantly limiting factor in his game. Some people are hyperbolic about his lack of arm strength but honestly he has one of the weakest arms in the league. That's just reality if you objectively watch him play versus other NFL QBs. If he had time in a clean pocket and can step up into and through his throw he can make most throws but that's the problem, for him to make the tougher throws everything has to go perfect. If there's pressure pushing him off his spot or pressure in front of him where he can't step up or has to try to loft the pass over the scrum it's probably ending in a poor result. The problem is that's a commonplace scenario in the NFL. It wasn't at Alabama. Trust your own QB analytical system. Bryce being very the bottom of the league matches up perfectly with the eye test of just watching him olay
    • If he wanted to be as irrelevant as possible in his final year he's achieving it.
