His injury and Mike Shanahan's decision to play him in the playoffs ruined him.
Yep. I said this after this playoff game.
I'm a Seahawks fan and I couldn't believe they let him keep playing. That stupid field ruined him more than anything. Trying to play on grass in January is retarded. It ruined Seattle's pass rush that year too with Cris Clemons' injury.
@@kevinroylancephotography9437Don't forget having him actually run wide receiver routes. Give opponents free shots. Just mind boggling.
the skins are just a poorly managed team..
it's a qb meat grinder, elite talent goes in, injured scrap comes out
Yeah, Shanahan ruined RG3 in under a season.
Crazy to think now RG3 lasted longer than Luck
Facts
Yeah
😂
Yeah
I wouldn’t consider being a back up lasting longer. If Luck wanted to be a backup I’m pretty sure he could
Watching Griffin fall the way he did was heartbreaking to watch....we have all had instances where our mind wants to keep going but our body fails us.
My body still moves but my mind has failed me.

He should have the Senior Executive Producer job at ESPN.
rg3 did not deserve Heisman over Andrew luck. luck is a franchise qb, rg3 is not even good backup. did not want to give award to pac12 player.
Yea extremely well edited, very skilled work
Dude had all the tricks and ability but didn't know that sliding was the most important weapon he didn't use
ask Joe Flacco how that went
@@NewOrleanCeltics21 that was a cheap shot that Joe Flacco received. And you can slide head first no law against that

These QB careers that end early are heartbreaking to watch. But rlly, most guys like RGIII are dual threat.

Black qbs suck in the NFL
Rg3 was the second rg3 in the league. Rex Grossman the third

It was planned

@Shorty facts
It was the redskins, shoulda seen this coming

@@joemcnulty6814 I never claimed Luck was worse. All I said was Griffin WAS a good player. Which he very much was. Not a lot of players can claim they went to the playoffs their rookie year, especially quarterbacks. He was very good, he possess skills not a lot of people had. He's the one who got the browns their only win in the 2015-16 season. If that isn't saying something I don't know what is. And it's not that he's especially bad, he's just seen as fragile and not as good as Lamar, the only qb in front of him, because let's be honest, no one is going to start Flacco again.

I detest SHANAHAN for ruining this young star’s NFL Career. RG3 was really something special. The Coach sees RG3 limping around YET leaves him in?
PhantomEchos Perhaps...but Shanahan was still his coach & he’s still supposed to look out for his ‘young’ players welfare.
The fault goes where it as always belonged since the Cooke family sold the Redskins, with Dan Snyder! Snyder is a curse to football and unfortunately, to my Redskins. This team will never be good under his ownership because Snyder won’t accept the fact that he knows nothing about football. Jack Kent Cooke was a great owner because he wrote checks and trusted his GM to find a good coach and then let that coach run the team.
Snyder loves getting involved with the players, especially the superstars of the team. He is always involved in the selection of players in the draft. An owner has no place there. It is the vision of the GM and coach as to what kind of a team they will build and field the proper players to full full those roles. Players that will fit well within a system, where guys like Dan think that you just draft all of the trophy winners and college superstars and any superstars you can pick up on free agency, because stars win championships.
How well has this worked for him? The worst thing Dan does is giving his phone number to the stars on the team. He allows those stars to dictate how they will be handled and this will make you a disjointed horrible team. Each player is concerned with their role and how their career will unfold, not looking at the team as a whole. Football is a team sport, more so than most any other sport.
You can’t just have a few Michael Jordans who can take you to multiple world titles in football. Joe Gibbs won multiple titles by building a team, with the biggest emphasis on the offensive line. That line won them three world titles, not some flashy QB or RB. In fact, Gibbs won those titles with 3 different QBs and several different RBs, but most of the same lineman on offense.
Dan Snyder should just hire a good GM who will select a coach with a similar vision and then write checks and stay out of the way. He will never build a great team in Washington letting the star players call the shots. Shanahan, like Gibbs, was a proven SB winner, but neither of them could do more than make a playoff appearance under Snyder. Gibbs posted one playoff win and it was a close one in Tampa, but Gibbs should have done so much more with that team.
It was RGIII that wrecked his own fate by staying in that playoff game when the Skins had a 14 advantage early in the game and Cousins on the bench. The next day Shanahan said he went the the guy that he felt gave them the best chance to win and that was bullshit. I know that Shanahan is smarter than that. What a major insult to Cousins saying that a crippled RGIII gives them a better chance of winning a game they had a 14 point advantage in than sending in Cousins?
Shanahan knew that was a load of crap, but he was covering for the real mess going on. A disaster where he had a twenty something year old spoiled brat making the calls for a multimillion dollar franchise, but he knew he was going to be out of there soon and there was no use stirring up trouble.
Dan Snyder’s Redskins became a place where aging coaches and players went to make huge sums of money before retiring from football, not a place to win championships. Most of the coaches and players had already done that and were no longer hungry for victory, just a large payday to set them up for life.
It saddens me to know that the skins will never be great again in my lifetime. Snyder is one of the youngest owners in football and one of the richest, so he is going nowhere anytime soon. He is too hardheaded to ever see how he is the problem and will continue to let the superstar players call him and bitch about the coaches and then he will get the coaches straight. That is not how you run a football franchise.
All of the fault for what happened to RGIII and every other player and coach that has run through Washington since the 1990s is ultimately the fault of Dan Snyder. He just can’t limit his involvement in the team and like all super rich people, he is surrounded with “yes men”, so there is no one to tell him the truth, he knows nothing about football and how to run an NFL franchise. Until he realizes that, things will never get better in Washington, they just continue to get worse.
Wolverine Smith WOW! That’s a whole lot of info about Snyder & the Skins. But...you lost me when you said RG3 ruined his own career by ‘staying in’ that playoff game. Hell, he’s still just a young, twenty-something, athlete playing his initial years in the Big League’s. It is the coach’s job to make the correct decisions for his players...Snyder or no Snyder. Would you have left that limping, struggling kid in the game? I wouldn’t!!
@@tangobango9653 yes, it's the playoffs
Viceroy Bear Sorry to hear that from an avid football fan. So if the Skins would’ve won THAT playoff game with a badly hobbled QB, how would he do in the next Playoff Game, the following week? And the week after that? Short-term thinking...there’s always next year for me, especially when your talking about a career ending injury to a young player with so much potential.
He’s living his potential through Lamar now.
Brian Jones you’re just a hater. Lamar is a great player and the chances of that happening are very low. RGIII was the first of this story we’ve heard of in the NFL, why should it be a common in any quarterback in the NFL. Learn your facts bro.

Kelvin Ellis take it easy man
@Brian Jones bruh shut the fuck up rg3 got injured in college which led to him getting worst in his pro day. Research what you saying
Ahmed M-A very true in all honesty I believe rg3 had/has more potential than Lamar Jackson
The first problem was that he was drafted to the Redskins, which now seeing Dwayne Haskins being ruined, is a pit for QBs.
*Washington football team*
Washington makes absolutely terrible decisions at QB. Jason Campbell, rg3, haskins. Honestly surprised they didnt go after Tua 😁😁 big L for washington, hopefully they keep haskin on the bench where he belongs, his back up is obviously better
John Connolly Kyle Allen is not better than Haskins and Haskins only had one game where he threw INTs. Other games he didn’t do bad.
@@rominer234 ok.. well in that case.. i hope Rivera puts haskins back in and keeps him under center for the next 10 years.. im sure if he does that the skins will win a lot of games 😁
John Connolly well I mean he is growing but Kyle Allen got traded for a reason. Idk how people can say Dwayne is going to learn from Allen lmao. They are just blowing smoke up their ass if they think Dwayne will learn anything from that guy😂😂
I thought Vince Young was gonna be the next Michael Vick, I thought RG3 was gonna be the next Michael Vick, now I realize there can be only one Michael Vick.

@@Zekeer2007 huge difference....the dogs have a Fighting chance
That “ more touchdown passes than incompletions” 3 games into the season is absolutely incredible 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Yea, and TCU was a good program and he torched 'em.
That injury killed me as a Washington fan. I was just 7, but to see the guy that brought Washington back to relevance go down, in the 4th quarter of our first playoff game in 5 years, only down by 7. That killed us and our momentum for 2 years. When we gave him up after the concussion in 2015, it was sad. Granted, Kirk did take us to the playoffs that year and never went worse than 7-9, but seeing a generational talent that good go to waste, killed me. I was so happy to see him play Pittsburgh a few weeks back. He had that 39 yard run, and I just saw 2012. I hope he gets a chance to start again, but he's running out of time
RGIII was such a great player. The Redskins dumb decision to play him ruined him. Not let him pass more. I hope someone gives him another shot so he can do good again.
Bronco he’s with Baltimore as backup
His dumb decision to keep playing like he could take hits from the NFL players. That’s why he got banged up overall.
Chance the Rapper #1 fan yeah I know but he’s 3rd string
Bronco 3rd string and he got a tiny shot yesterday’s game
If I remember correctly when he was with the Skins If I remember correctly when he was with the Skins Shanahan benched his ass because he refused to stay in the pocket and pass the ball....Scramble, scramble.....Eventually, that scrambling shit is either going to get you benched or injured... He got both...
REMEMBER THE RG3. SUBWAY COMMERCIAL😥😣😞
At least that part of his career went all right (think Jared).
No
Lmao yes. Before he even played a game.
On god😓
Talk about a hole in one
It's simple what happened to RG3.The defenses of the NFL figured out that by rule a qb becomes a runner once he starts outside into the run/pass option and thus could hit him as hard as a runner. His body just couldn't take the pounding. He was slight by football standards, and injuries were inevitable. In the end, though, RG3 has made it work out for him anyway in the broadcasting booth, where he is doing really well.
I never thought I would see the day I agree with Dan Synder. Even as a cowboys fan I wanted to see RG3 succeed and when he played against the cowboys as a rookie, it was a beautiful thing to see.
RG3=The Derrick Rose of football
The coach never helped though, some of those play calls
Unfortunately, he probably won't have the same comeback.
Fifty Faces of Manning D Rose never had a comeback sure he had some moments like his game winner against Cleveland but he’s never been the same since that one injury and he could’ve been so much more today
Des Mcmahon brilliant comparison.
@@jasonchilado D Rose is averaging 20 right now, he's making his comeback right now
Maybe college football has gotten too big. It makes young guys feel like superstars when actually their career hasn't even begun.
A very understated, albeit accurate fact.
Except in bama where they’re humble and know they probably might not make it in the nfl lol
College players should be paid especially the one that played for big d-1 schools
Excellent point. Have you ever noticed how many Heismann winner's don't do well in the Pro's?
Tim tebow
"All he needs is another chance" not while Lamar Jackson is breathing
You mean "not while his legs are still working"....
Jackson is going to get injured sooner or later, RG3 can prove himself then
“Rg3 couldn’t escape the injury bug”
Yea cuz of all his game I never once saw him slide, not a single time. He literally didn’t know how to slide. And worse off he was so reckless when he did run
And all he had to do was talk to the Nationals baseball team .
Honestly, RG3 had god-status before he even threw a pass. That got to his head quick. his injury in college may have had him thinking he wouldn't be valued as high, but he was. The trouble with RG3 was his game didn't evolve. And when he kept running out of protection and getting smacked, THOSE injuries caught up with him. He never learned, at that time, to be an effective pocket quarterback and get past the first read. Defenses picked up on that and started to make him pay. Good QB's learn to read, adapt, and only run when necessary. RG3 ran every chance he got early in his Redskins career...hence, his injuries.
well said, mate!🇳🇿🐨🏈
Agree
I totally disagree. He did get a big head young dumb. He got hit a lot bunch of cheap shots after he was already headed to the sidelines. The team didn't protect his job if he's your future don't make the youngsta feel like he has to rush back from that injury if not for that play skinz wouldn't have a chance to make the playoffs. Same type of hit and situation Carson Went is in. Should have came out of the vs Seattle was up 14. The team needs that man back that's why other fans run the stadium
While yes, the issue is that his game never evolved, he also essentially lost an arm in a fight. Getting injured in that playoff game made him a shell of his former self. If he were able to evolve, he could stay relevant. But that's easier said than done, for all yall who play sports out there, you know what your strong suit is and how to get to it. His strong suit was taken from him.
@@miguelhidalgo9543 it was...his legs. He seems to have his throwing arm back
What happened to RG3???Shanahan....he got Shanahanned
@Chris Munoz Carr was trash well before Gruden came along.
Lol. Try not to embarrass yourself too much.
Wrong. Shanahan had to dumb down his playbook for RGIII. The guy is d7mb as a brick. Why c9 you think he ran so much? He had NO idea what was happening on the field and ran to save his life. You’re only going to get away with that for so long.
NVR liked RG3,or Kapernick, Kapernick had great coaching RG3 didnt simple as that.
@@MikeyReadman Carr was mvp canidate just 3 seasons ago stfu
He went right past the ball during a live game, knew recovering it was an absolute priority - but was in so much pain he didn’t dare move.
Hurts my soul to watch this. Heartbreaking.
I'll never forget that knee buckle in the playoffs :(
I would dare not to call that guy a bust whatsoever. He wanted to play a position that he loved in a sport he loved and fought back after injury after injury and after injury. RG3 shows nothing but heart and that’s something to appreciate about him.
(Btw I heard the Redskins got some QB problems right now. They should look into some guy in Baltimore 🤐)
We were up 14 to 0 against the Seahawks in that playoff game. I literally screamed at the TV take him out but they left him in and he reinjured himself again!
END OF STORY!
#HTTR!
PS. I believed he still had more in the tank though...
totally agree I was saying the same thing I'll never forget that game
Democrats are cunts your point?
Me too. Httr
I cried when he got injured, I had gotten injured in Afghanistan the same year and I felt his pain. RGIII was in Baltimore mentoring Lamar Jackson and what a fantastic job he did.
Although I would love to see RG3 get another starting shot I think the situation he’s in now is perfect mentoring Lamar. Both have similar skill sets. Both great players.
RG winning percentage is about 10% as a starter. You’ve been sucked into the hype, and the truth is that RG is terribly inaccurate. NFL defenses adapt and eventually stop running QB’s who are incapable passers. That’s the RG story.
@@donnieshelton591 tbh I don’t think he ever recovered from his rookie season, he put up good completion and good yards but after that he just didn’t have that same fire
I tore my MCL, LCL and ACL. That’s 3 out of 4 ligaments in the knee while being a speed demon while snow skiing. 8 months and 3 weeks after ACL surgery, I was back on the slopes skiing. My first run was down LEGS, the slope I got injured on. Yes I now wear a custom DonJoy knee brace, and I’m still a speed demon on skis.
Redskins: "thank u, next"
Alex Smith: Yeah, I'd like..
Kirk was a way better passer. After that season he had when rg3 got hurt you couldnt go back. Cant blame Kirk for wanting out after all the BS.
2 new legs lol
Duane Bailey and what is his bum ass doing with the Vikings
They have always favored cousins period. They should have let someone else take him in. You see how quick they dismiss a quarterback. Redskins will forever be cursed. Don't know what would lift it. So many injures in one season this year. RG3 still has potential just needs a team willing to take him.
Mike Shanahan happened. That's what happened to him. He marches an injured RG3 onto the field with an already bad knee and he gets demolished on the sideline. That was pretty much the end of his productive career.
Welcome to the NFL is what the players said to RG3 this isn't college ball anymore, RG3 should have known better, hey live and learn huh.
Lies lies lies . mike tried to bench him to let him heal before the season started and rg3 made passive aggressive comments to media that made local fans and local media accuse mike of lying about him being hurt and wanting to sabatoge him cause he black . then in the playoff game when mike tried to sit him when it was clear he was hurt rg3 ran on the field and refused to come off the field . than when the next season started mike wanted him to sit to heal from acl surgery and rg3 started a media firestorm by saying he was healthy and even had his doctor lie and say he was healthy . this was all aided by Dan Snyder who dumb ass applied pressure to mike to start him or ELSE. Rg3 made his bed he has to lay in it
Christopher Bingham it’s your Franchise QB he’s limping and hurting it’s the Coaches job to sit a player I saw that game It was a shame mike should of took him out
realone504 exactly they could’ve taken his helmet away from him like they do when players have concussions and force him to sit out if especially if he’s your supposed franchise QB. I don’t care players are always gonna wanna play no matter how hurt they are it’s up to the coach especially a hall of fame coach to preserve your future period
Christopher Bingham man the Doctors could of took his Helmet they can bench players too ya know especially when you see a player hurt
Here’s what happened:
Got badly injured and never played the same
@bass reemer how can you say he had no arm 🤦🏼♂️
Got figured out. Do you need the list of these guys. Lamar Jackson is the most recent. He is done . RPO qb’s have an 18 month shelf life. It should be shorter. Athletic qb’s never learn accuracy.
bass reemer Cordell Stewart, Vince Young, RG3 etc
@@garychiasson935 yeah mostly running Qb’s. Mahomes can throw.
Jora Music RG3 was never going to be good. He had a bad knee injury at Baylor. That was not the problem. He was a great hurdler , world class . These types of players never learn to make tight throws. Their scrambling ability in college gives their WR’s huge separation. Not so in the nfl . People keep referencing Mahomes. Mahomes is a pure gifted thrower , his legs make him quite possibly the best ever. Time will tell.
He came to my high school earlier this year and just answered questions from the students. He's a really nice guy. He took pictures with people afterward even though he had somewhere else to be. I always heard about him when I was in elementary school because I live in a small city right outside of Waco and he was kinda a big deal around here, so it was really cool to actually get to see him in person.

Wonders why he gets hurt all the time.... lowers shoulder against linebackers.....
Luck did that most of the time also. Kind of explains alot...
Because his of (offensive linemen) wearnt protecting him and was letting him get hit. That's why he left redskins
@Eric Van by that time his leg was a weak point, he probably figured his shoulder and head were stronger than his leg.
@@DriaLii Yes, theyre the coach. They are responsible for identifying and correcting errors in the players they coach
Dria Li Is that a serious question?
Dude needed to learn how to slide.
bruh, don't lower your shoulder
MATH LOVER exactly! That's something missing from the video, RG3 not knowing how to slide and the hit by Haloti Ngata against the Ravens that caused the injury during the regular season.
Like Willie Beamen in Any Given Sunday
Yeah I'm surprised that it wasn't discussed in this video as to how he was getting hit an awful lot throughout his rookie season--much more than what you'd want for a QB.
And? When was the last time Lamar slide? Nothing happened to him. So maybe it is the coaching and management.
About to start this Sunday in baltimore vs the Steelers. Can’t wait.
It wasn't the same old RG3 that we saw back then, as expected. But it was awesome to see him take the field again.
His rookie season was amazing, until he got hurt! He had a badass crew of receivers! That acl injury just never goes away completely!
Redskins fans. I feel yall!. I felt the same way when it happen to Derrick Rose.
Teo Ortiz me too.. coming from a huge rose fan and an ex huge bulls fan .. I say ex because of the two clown idiots running that team to the ground .. will not follow the bulls let alone the nba until the two clowns are gone!
God man...I still remember that game. I think I was still in middle school, watching the game with my dad while eating Domino's pizza. It was heartbreaking...
i love watching this video over and over again
I ran hurdles with him throughout highschool in Killeen Tx.
I remember him being more humble than boasting, even though he had ever right to be. He averaged about 2 to 4 seconds faster than anyone else in the district at hurdles.
He was actually 1 of 3 seniors from his year that ended up getting signed.
Sad to see what ended up happening after the fact but regardless of that he has had a wild ride.
Even tho he may not get the same love from nfl fans as he used to, I was still super hyped when he first went to Baltimore and I’m still hyped he’s in Baltimore again this year. Love me some RGIII. Even when he under preforms
Are you from or in Texas!
I hate he didn't pursue track and field.
He broke the Texas state record of Rio's Olympics 400 Hurdler Kerron Clement,who eventually won Gold in Rio!!!
I’m a Seattle fan but when I saw how they reacted on the fumble years ago I was mad there is a man laying down hurt and your celebrating
Your videos are really well put together
Rg3 is one of my favorite players off all time I remember watching him as a kid and pretending to be him in my backyard I’ll always love him
Tell ya what happened coach Shanahan screwed him over
I detest SHANAHAN for ruining this young star’s NFL Career. RG3 was really something special. The Coach sees RG3 limping around YET leaves him in?

Wow,the poor dude could hardly even hobble in that play off against the seahawks.Poor form washington in relation to player welfare.
The state of the field in that game was criminal

For real that field during that game was embarrassing
I remember screaming at the TV that day. It was incredulous that they left him in that game until his leg completely broke off.
@@rrdt
Didn't they send him into a shed on the sidelines to get a shot of some painkillers ?
still make me cry watching his greatest highlights.OP in madden 25
Loved RGlll on the skins. Watched every game. He brought back hope we could do something big. Sad thing he got injured. Then injured again and again. He lost mobility and that lead to him not being comfortable throwing or running. Wish he could have made a comeback in Washington but it wasn't what the universe had in store. I will always be grateful for what he brought and always a fan. Wish him the best of luck. Hope he gets a starters job but not because of another's misfortune. He wouldn't want that and neither do I.
Thank you RGlll
Back when RG3 was at Baylor, he was putting up numbers, every game, like the competition was on rookie with all their sliders set to zero and all of his maxed out. It also seemed like the competition’s speed was set at zero when he threw the deep ball. Dude was unreal. We haven’t seen anything remotely close to the show he put on since Michael Vick
I thought this was flemlo 😅😅
Same
Same! Both TH-camrs are lit asf
Same
Same
That’s because you’re all idiots
Too bad the new rules for hitting QBs were not in affect, some of those hits looked like they were trying to hurt him. Such a lack of respect for fellow players.
Wassergekuhlt The QB rules don’t apply when a QB is a runner. RGIlls problem is that he never learned to take advantage of them. He ran like a running back and he took big hits for it. He didn’t slide very much
Too bad RG3 played in the Big 12 and they didn't know what getting hit was about
*flag
It’s football. It’s a CONTACT sport. He was way too small and weak to be taking hits in general in the NFL. Go watch soccer if you want to see no one get hit.
the dude got hurt when just running out of bounds. had nothing to do with getting hit. he sucked and was one year wonder. once the league watched tapes, they knew how to defend him. and he was so fragile. you look at him and he gets hurt. I'm really REALLY surprised he didn't get hurt playing the end of the ravens game.
Luv the vids keep it up
I was 10 and a Washington fan when they became the NFC East champions in 2012. I loved RG3, I even built him in minecraft to celebrate them winning.
Something left in the tank? All of the touchdown passes on this highlight video are either hitting guys that are 10 yards wide open or throwing up a jump ball to a covered receiver. Like Shanahan said, he's no Peyton Manning.
But it takes time sometimes. You go watch film of cousins and i could argue the same thing. Hell Andy Dalton was mediocre in the passing game till like the 6 season in the league. The difference between Dalton and Rg3 tho is that there was a committment to Dalton and there wasnt one with Griffin because the constantly with other qbs.
Is it only me but does RG3 remind you of Andre3000 from outkast🎶?
"The whole world loves it when you ACL makes that sound"
This is gooD! This is what I needed!
coming back to the video that introduced me to kto
Ahhhh yes, Josh Gordon, the man of 10,000 second chances. As for RG3, not only were injuries the obvious culprit in his downfall, but also the league figured him out. He wasn't great in the pocket and he took unnecessary risks all the time when scrambling. Not a recipe for a long career.
Same thing with Johnny manzel
Justin Miller Scramble first QBs get crushed in the NFL
@@jimlamanna9712 Absolutely. Guy's like Russel Wilson last because they look to pass before run, while RG3 does the complete opposite. RG3 is literally made out of popsicle sticks too which doesn't help.
Lamar Jackson looks like he is going in that direction. Same with DeShaun Watson.
@@RobimusPrime I hope those guy's don't go down the RG3 path. While I didn't watch a ton of Jackson in college, I've always been a Watson fan as I watched plenty of his games. That guy's o-line should've been charged with attempted murder last year for how many times they let him get hit.
You can get away with running in high school and college as a qb.. But not in the NFL. Pocket presence qb’s last longer.
False Steve young Mike Vick elway Russell Wilson cam Newton etc he's just skinny if he would have put on about 25-30 pounds he would've been oo
almighty Montana Mike Vick and Cam have had their share of injuries. The defense is bigger, faster, and stronger than they were in the 80’s and 90’s. It’s a death sentence in today’s game
@@therhythm1395 getting injured comes whith the game just like Randall Cunningham said if I ever get injured it's because I'm in the pocket
@@therhythm1395 Vick never had any season ending real bad injury's most QBs get hurt in the pocket them qb hits and sacks are no joke Lamar Jackson seems to avoid collision tho
@@therhythm1395 and nah the game was way more ruthless and agressive in the 80s and 90s dude what are you talking about lol
his injuries got him RG3 was pure talent he just couldn't shake his injuries
If you get hurt in college you get more so in the pros. That class of QBs was crazy. Russell Wilson. Andrew Luck. RGIII. Colin Kaepernick. Some straight up studs.
Also, RGIII never learned how to slide.
gaaramookow he’s slid several times and has ran out of bounds to avoid hits several times in Baltimore.
or pocket pass.....or set his feet...or read a defense.....the surprise would be if he HAD a long career
This was an extremely informative and honest video... Awesome job
It was so sad he is no longer to play NFL games. A few days ago he was on ESPN “get up” he was on and shared the opinions with others.
broken ankle here... played after first fracture after just 1 month with some friends in the streets with the help of some pills (as a futsal goalie) but then i had hamstrings again and again for years then 6 months without problems and suddenly fcked my ankle again, a fissure and a huge hamstring not only in my ankle but the fingers of my feet it was HORRIBLE ... the pain .... went to a doctor (finally) and gave me 3 months on cruthches then 3 to rehab. He told me that i should be able to start jogging slowly in the 4th month due to a quite fast recovery ... still i wasnt able to jog until the 7th month out of fear. Did my rehab took my time and it was fantastic. 5 years have passed and i feel confortable with my ankle but it took me like 1 and a half year to get the confidence on my ankle again, to play without the fear of it twisting/broking it again...
It's tough seeing his career fall apart, still love him tho
Its crazy how many QBs came and left all the while Tom Brady has continued to outlast every single one
ikr, plus Brady can't run for shit.
@Shorty He was out for a season while injured. It's not like he's gone unscathed for 20 years. His O-Line has just been incredible for the better part of his career.
I'm more amazed Ben Roethlisberger is still playing. Steelers had a pretty bad offensive line until like 2012. Dude is just a tank.
he got hurt playing the ravens tho
Tom Brady protects himself very well. You see others doing the same like Brees and the Manning brothers just to name a few. When they feel there gonna get hit they just take a dive. Some people say that’s cowardice but when you have a career like an NFL QB it pays to be reliable and that’s what their preserving, their reliability.
Also, Eli Manning
That was a very well put together videi
Everyone thank seat geek for helping to get us these awesome videos. Like to thank
KKHHHAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!
R-Really
G-Good for
3 plays
Naw, honestly I had high hopes for him. Sucks that he got injured his rookie year. He def had more potential
i blame shanahan for leaving his ass out there against the seahawks
nanaglo4545 You’re probably right. I always thought that Coach Shananagins was a bit of a dick!
That was just the tip. After the injury they wanted him to be a pocket passer
He beat the cowboys while hopping around in one leg then they threw him in against the best defense in football at the time. While still hopping around on one leg.
He didn't want to come off and avoided the physios on the side line. I think he should never have started the game, because he could barely walk. But he felt too threatened by Cousins to sit. Plenty of blame to go around on this one.
@@shotgunner5514 A good coach would have recognised his talent and listened to the player when he is saying he shouldnt be running. A good example is look at what the Seahawks did with Russell Wilson after he injured himself. The read option is barely in their playbook now, and Wilson is in the pocket much more often. Shanahan didnt give a rats ass about RG3's long term health, he just had the shortsighted goal of the performing well right then. Now Wilson is known as a top tier QB and RG3 is a backup that most people dont even know is still in the league. It could have gone very different for RG3 if he just worked on his throw and poise in the pocket.
I remember our quarter back got rg3s number in middle school and i still can’t believe how hype we got then it happened agains with Manziels a&m number in high school
RGIII is Johnny football without cocaine.
Would love to see RG3 get another shot as a starting QB in the NFL
Probs can start for the dolphins or bengals rn... even the redskins
Id made him in Madden 20
Nah he needs to be the backup in Baltimore for the rest of his career. The MVP needs a good backup.
He started against the Steelers last week, he did alright. He won’t ever be the same again, but he’ll at least always be a solid backup
Hell naw
I remember he was on the Subway and Gatorade commercials
how does KTO have only 300K he needs 1MIL let's get him there guys
Man im happy hes doing better now but it was fun while it who knows he might get some surprises in the future
KTO has and will always have the best music in his videos
U watched the whole thing. Is it me, or do receivers play a huge fucking role in the success of the qb? That was an amazing catch moreso than the throw was. just sayin....
@Captain Cor Santana Moss was a freak - he was on the Jets for a while - little guy but if the ball came within 5 yards of his body, he caught it. Defenders were almost irrelevant. Even the few highlights here you see him make some unreal catches, and he just gets up for the next play, no hotdogging nonsense.
CoLatrL.Damg3 He’s one of the skins greats. He stuck around for years.
R Fletcher No Tom Brady turned decent receivers into pro bowlers but ab Hopkins and Julio can’t turn a justin Winston into a sb mvp
tom brady has had 457 different receivers and he's been fine for two decades now
I watched him play in high school. The raw talent was impressive. His high school days were down the road from Baylor. He played at Copperas Cove High School.
Dude when he fell during the snap. That really hit hard bro.
He was one of favorite players to watch still remember watching many redskins games his rookie year. Sad that his rookie year would be the peak of his nfl career.
This is heartbreaking even as somebody who has never been a fan for his teams.
Being played hard without adequate recovery time will do that to someone's career.
Also having a crappy coach
The coaches wanted RGIII to take it easy , RGIII was the one pushing to get back on the field , throwing his coach under the bus and getting him fired. When a player is more excited about their socks than learning a playbook you know his career is in trouble . Skins drafted Cousins the same year as RGIII ........tells you something right there .
@luis _ Year after RGIII got hurt , media asked RGIII if hes ready ? RGIII said " yeah im ready " . Media ask RGIII , Why ain't you playing more snaps in pre season then if your ready ? RGIII says " Coaches decision " Then every time RGIII doesn't want to answer a question from the media......" Coaches decision " . Just like baby Marshawn Lynch at the Super Bowl " Im only here so I don't get fined " comment . It all becomes childish after awhile . Players want money but they don't want to talk to the media . I said it before and Ill say it again .......RGIII was way more worried about what socks he was wearing than worrying about learning a playbook . RGIII basically got Mike Shannahan fired by repeatedly throwing him under the bus. If RGIII had Shannahan back it might be different. the Redskins made one of the all time stupid decisions to trade a ton of draft picks to the Rams for RGIII. How did that trade turn out for the Rams ? Yeah it freaking set them up to build a Super Bowl type roster. RGIII was a big bust .
Jimmy Jones You about as stupid as can be, aren’t ya little buddy?
@@RandyandArt Your name sounds like you pack the fudge , Mr Genius.
Hopefully RG3 will make a comeback. He might be around 30 now but if we learned anything from Tannehill, it is never too late.
In 2012, RG3 was electrifying as he earned a pro bowl and NFL offensive rookie of the year. One year later, in a 2013 playoff game against the Seahawks, Redskins’ head coach, Mike Shanahan made a selfish and shortsighted decision to keep an obviously injured RG3 in the game despite the fact he could barely walk on an injured leg. As a result, RG3 suffered a torn LCL, ACL, and meniscus, which ruined a promising career and changed the history of the Washington franchise. We’ll never know how great RG3 might have been if Coach Shanahan had valued his quarterback’s health over a meaningless playoff game.
Who watching this after Andrew luck retired
im watching it before
I am.
Me
Me
Halo Hawk me
When RGIII's injury, and leaving him in, become front page of the Washington Post, you know it's f'd up in DC!
The Scatman everything is fucked up in d.c., everything.
HUGE RG3 fan...I wanted him to succeed in Washington so that those damn cowboys wouldn't even think about playoffs....ever
I remember watching this game and my father in law said that was the end of his career. The Redskins ruined him. He was a talent lost. Way to early.
