RGIII: "Media trying to Character Assassinate Me"


bLACKpANTHER

Recommended Posts

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.

 

The thing is though, RG3's coverage has not been unfair. The poo didn't really hit the fan, probably, until the last couple of weeks, and it has been about his bad play and refusal to take responsibility for said play.  Other QBs even take responsibility when it is obviously apparent that they weren't (aren't) necessarily the problem, ultimately realizing that football is a team sport.  

 

There is an M and an E in team when it comes to RG3, backwards and out of order, but true nonetheless, much like RG3's thinking about himself, the media, and himself and the media. Donovan McNabb was trying to give the then media darling some sage advice about this, but RG3 was too drunk on his own Kool-Aid to listen.

Lets not even get on Luck

 

The most overhyped qb I have ever seen

 

Good qb but the gap between him and Wilson and Newton is non existent

 

Pretty overhyped. I will give pie to anybody that sees this post and can post somebody of the media that has been super critical of Luck play these past few games WITHOUT giving the excuse he doesn't have certain players, cause I haven't seen it

The messed up part is that when Luck struggles they blame his OL and injuries as if Cam doesn't have those problems.

But you will never see the media blame Cam's struggles on anything else but him.

 

Its like Andrew Luck can't struggle they have their head so far up his ass, any sort of suckage they blame it on other things. 

You can't even compare Luck's rookie stats to that of Cam. His numbers were horrible.

RGIII missed the entire offseason, has a bottom 5 defense, a horrid o-line that makes ours look like The Hogs, his best receiver is Pierre Garcon, their team is in salary cap hell, and his coach is the mascot for Red Lobster and has not done anything of note since Elway and Terrel Davis carried him to two super bowls in the late 1990s. But lets blame RGIII, because ESPN focuses on the QB and not the whole team. This is just a year after the huddle had a giant crusade against sports media for getting on Cam. 

 

Narratives.

All the "experts" have to cover their ass so when they spend two years telling us Luck will be the next great QB it will take some massive fugging up on his part to get them to admit they were wrong and change the narrative about him. Similarly with Cam, the experts spend the whole time up until his first game telling us how he would never be a good QB or about how fake he was or whatever. Now that he's proving to be the equal of any other young QB in the league (and a legitimately nice guy) they don't want to admit that they were once again wrong about a prospect so they kept throwing him under the bus until our winning streak forced them to shut the fug up.

Yeah, his offensive line is garbage. It's time Mikey S helps him out before he's ruined. If the 49ers got after Cam the way they did Griffin we would've been held to 6 points.

 

That's all fine, but the fact that none of his o-linemen bother to help him up tells you something about how he's perceived on his own team.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
