Regarding RGIII, I still think the Redskins are making a mistake by not using him like the Shanahans used him in 2012.
During the preseason I said that if you're going to have him as your QB you have to let him play that style because that's his strength. he's not a pocket passer.
You have to turn him loose like Seattle does Wilson and just hope he's learned how to protect himself.
IMO, it's a no-lose situation. Right now he's failing as a pocket passer so you might as well let him play like he did at Baylor and in 2012.
If he gets hurt, so what. I say "so what" because if they strictly use him as a pocket passer he'll continue to fail and they're moving on from him anyway.
So let him run the read option and hope for the best.
