Perhaps field conditions need to be more closely scrutinized.

Just based over the entire year, this team has been bullied by the NFL. It just seems no matter the circumstance, they find something wrong with how the skins have conducted themselves. It just gets a little old. This team has some of the most classiest players due to Shanahan handpicking character guys. We no longer have knuckleheads on this team, nor do we have an owner that is overbearing and is letting the football people he hired to actually make all the football decisions. Let’s just give it a rest people. Talk about the teams that are still in the playoffs, and lay off the criticism.

I can’t believe that segment made the air

Players don’t want to be pulled and after awhile who’d be left to watch? I guess players hurt as badly as RG3 was need to pull themselves out. But maybe the culture needs to change that if they do they are trusted and not ridiculed like Jay Cutler unfairly was.

They were probably busy playing Dancing with the Stars and Ray Lewis in Baltimore this weekend anyway. Maybe he’ll get destroyed again this week but lead his team in tackles.

Nobody questioned RGIII obviously playing hurt when he beat the Cowboys. Nobody questioned him obviously playing hurt when he had the Skins up 14-0 against the Seahawks.

These are some of the same people that hammered Cutler for not playing hurt.

Everybody’s a genius after the fact. Let it rest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you honestly thought the NFLPA would formally complain about that then you have not thought that through to completion. Any investigation into the handling of the injury would have to include RG3′s statements and willingness to get back in the game. At a minimum, the player would have borne some of the culpability. Once that pandora’s box is opened, the concussion lawsuits are further jeopardized due to precedence. Also, that opens up the probability of the teams sitting guys (back-ups/fringe players esp.) in order to protect themselves. The unintended consequences would have been catastrophic for the NFLPA.

Is the union going to start monitoring the health of every player and determine is they’re healthy enough to play? A team Dr and union Dr on each sideline? Might as well up the rosters to 200 players per team because after 4 preseason games and 18 regular season, every player (kickers excluded) on the field is injured to some degree.

Shanahan and Snyder and that doctor All succeed in dodging a culpability bullet?

Another inconsistent message from the head of the NFLPA. Why am I not surprised?
