    RG3 Needs total reconstruction

    Bad deal for him. Re-tore his ACL, plus the LCL.

    So do you blame Shanahan?

    Doesnt surprise me considering how many different directions his knee went right before he was taken out.

    This is the price you pay when you have a running QB. Just call it the Mike Vick Syndrome.

    The better question is whether there will be artificial turf in Washington for the opener. You can't grow grass in Washington in January.

    Green Bay's grass seemed fine, I assume the Redskins could heat their turf too.

    Glad Knott did not seem to aggravate his shoulder against Baylor. I don't think we would have got the win without him.

    I would think this is what the Redskins are going to work on with him. He needs to learn to limit his hits so his career can continue.

    Sucks he's hurt but I don't know how anyone didn't see this coming. His speed makes him special but he isn't cut out to be a running QB in the NFL, he's just doesn't have the size. The good news is he didn't run much in college, he has shown he can be a pass first QB.
    The only bigger turnoff than finding out a woman smokes, is finding out she's a Husker fan.

    Wonder about kapernick in SanFran too. He seems to be noticably bigger? I like the dimension a true dual threat QB brings but if you're investing your largest contracts in that position you gotta know this happens more often than not.

    How would more size have saved his knee?

    If RG3 doesn't change his aversion to sliding I don't see anyway his career lasts more than 5 years.

    He just cut his career in 1/2 (at least) already.

    Re: RG3 Needs total reconstruction

    I was listening to Mike & Mike on the way in this morning. I have never heard this before, but whoever the guest was (didn't catch the name) said that still, in 2013, TWO-THIRDS of NFL players who have reconstructive knee surgery NEVER return.
