It's true, though. You obviously haven't heard his post game press conferences. All top, respected QBs take the blame when the team fails, and give praise to teammates when they succeed. RGDiva doesn't do that. His ego is too monstrous.
Put it this way, if he was respected by his teammates, why on earth wouldn't they help him up after getting hit/sacked? I saw many instances in games where he was on the ground after a sack/hit and the O-lineman was right there, would look and walk away. Shit, sometimes he was blatenly ignored. Actions speak louder than words. Hell, Garcon and Moss even got on him a little bit during the season for how he was behaving. It's a real issue. And if the latest article on him by Sally Jenkins has any shred of truth, the team is in trouble. Andrew Luck and Russell Wilson don't carry themselves the way RGDiva does. I'm willing to bet that their teammates would rush to pick them up after a sack/hit, as opposed to just letting them get up themselves or get help from a ref.
Bottom line, it's all about his ego. It's gotten too big for his and the team's own good.
It's even worse when that ego is based on a mirage. He had a good half season in 2012 due largely to his offensive line and system. Is there even a question anymore that he's not even as good as Tannehill, let alone Wilson and especially Luck?
The media and league need a good black QB to build up. With Newton and Wilson having team success, they don't need to lie about Griffin McNabb-style anymore.
As far as I'm concerned, Wilson is the cream of that crop. He's not too far off athletically from RG3-10 and he's got better QB sense.
Sounds like Washington is just a piece of shit organization.Quote:

And they both would have lost that game against KC on Saturday.Quote:

Not sure if I agree with that. Seattle's defense wouldn't have allowed KC to score that many points, and KC's defense would have been too banged up to handle a potent Seattle offense.Quote:

edit: And what potent Seattle offense? They were eighth in points scored, despite having that defense to turn the ball over. Kansas City outscored them for the season.
