RG III is not going to last in the NFL. Shanahan will get him killed. |
| It was an assinine move putting him in to play with a bum knee like that. The back up QB did a good job. This is the playoffs, you need to take out all the stops but at the cost of the game and season? Tough decision but I think I would have kept the back up as a starter and kept RG III as the back up, or even pinch QB. |
| Fucking stupid move on Shanahan's part keeping him in with the bum knee. His mobility is what makes him special, so asking him to play like a traditional pocket passer (especially against the Seattle pass rush) was just a dumb move. Shanahan should have played Cousins rather than let the face (and the future) of the franchise risk suffering from an injury that could have serious long-term consequences. |

Like the guy and great player...just not built to do that on the NFL level. Reason Cam will last longer than him or Wilson...6'6 250lb guy can take hits. Wilson has taken more hits than just about any QB out their. And has proven he isn't afraid to block or run the ball when he needs to. Arguement invalid |

I like RGIII but the coach had to pull him. It's no playing next week if you lose. You lose you're done. See if Cousins can hang the W and then evaluate RGIII for next week. next week? it's not the best of 3. If Cousins could have won. Then they could have evaluated RGIII for next week game. I know it's not the best of 3

Tough decision but I think I would have kept the back up as a starter and kept RG III as the back up, or even pinch QB. I agree. Given how OBVIOUSLY his knee was hurting, and he was unable to run at all and has trouble making accurate passes, it was completely insane to put him in during the second half. They should have put Cousins in from the very start of the 2nd half. Not only was it irresponsible to keep RGIII in, it was incredibly stupid, if they wanted to have a chance at actually winning the game.
