as for gruden, i'd have been upset too. they'd won a couple in a row, and then the owner and gm force gruden to go back to their good buddy rg3, when he wanted to stick with what was working-and they haven't won since. so, then rg3 goes running his mouth, and i'd imagine by that point, gruden was po'd at everyone. he got overruled, griffin plays (badly) and then disses everyone else...
should gruden have gone off, probably not. but, i did see yesterday that griffin has quit social media for the rest of the season-which is what he absolutely needed to do. quit being a celeb, and get to work.

I must have missed this. I saw one fairly innocuous comment that suggested he can't win games by himself. Which is true. The entire squad -- especially the guys who are supposed to keep him clean -- has been awful. So I can understand why he might get a little defensive when he's being badgered by the media about why HE isn't winning games on a horrendous team.
Other than that, I really haven't seen RG3 say anything that could even be construed as negative about anybody. It's been Gruden bashing him pretty much all season long and the last thing you should do when you have a potential franchise QB suffering a crisis of confidence is nitpick every little thing he does in public. I just find it very juvenile and pompous the way Gruden has handled his relationship with his young quarterback. Like I said, I know RG3 rubs people the wrong way, but the head coach is supposed to take the high road and not go bitch out his players to the media.
