TimFolk Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Chris Russell reporting on 980 that RG3 might not travel with the team down to Atlanta. I heard something like this on Twitter but this is wrong I know they don't want Fox showing RG3 on the sidelines but this furthers the divide I feel some players have with him. From not traveling to VA on thanksgiving and having dinner with the Synders's and Griffin's in texas etc etc. Looking at my Sig I forgot that I wanted RG3 on IR last summer.

Dan T. Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I would be very surprised if he doesn't make the trip.  And - absent some compelling explanation that I can't fathom right now - I would also be very disappointed in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea.  I have a feeling this is going to get uglier before it gets better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DM72 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Is Robert not traveling with the team of his on volition or it this Shanahan's decision? Â First off, I believe RGIII will be in Atlanta. Â Second, if Shanahan doesn't want RGIII there, he should be FIRED immediately. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boss_Hogg Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 If Robert doesn't travel then we'll all know this was Mike's decision. Robert repeatedly said that he's gonna be on the sidelines helping Kirk and the team win these next three games. Â This could be another chess move in the $7 million game of chicken from Mike.

No idea.  I have a feeling this is going to get uglier before it gets better...   Well if Shanahan tells him not to go that's a whole 'nuther story. But I just can't see RG3 deciding on his own not to go. He needs to be on the sidelines supporting Kirk, huddling with Kirk and Kyle, looking at the photos and listening in on the play calls.  He can do a lot to burnish his claim as a leader by being there to support his teamates. It seems to me that not going could be a grave mistake in terms of his future relationship with teammates.

RG3 made it seem like he was going to be there for his teammates. If he's not, it could be Shanny trying to stir up more crap.

So if he doesn't go, to me at least, it makes it seem like it wasn't his decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsdude Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 More rumor that I hope is incorrect. When the starting quarterback of a team is injured or inactive he becomes another coach on the sideline. If he's not on the sideline Sunday, there better be a good reason. If there's not, he will take a huge PR hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingsuit Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Are deactivated players allowed to travel with the team?? Â Even if there is some stupid rule that they aren't its obvious Griffin needs to be there. Â Â edit: Then again, air travel can be dangerous. Maybe he should play it safe and not risk injury.

Mr. Sinister Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I hope to god that if he isn't there, it's because Shanahan made him stay. This isn't the time for him to be selfish, and truly lend credence to the "RG Me" nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if he doesn't go, to me at least, it makes it seem like it wasn't his decision. Still don't know the source of any of the leaks. Â Shanny gets blamed relentlessly as it's great fodder for jock sniffing reporters and fans alike. Â Guarantee Shanny will address this issue if it's asked was this his decision as there will be no avoiding it. Â All the news out has been drama that paints Shanny and sometimes RG in neg light. Â It's weird that Shanny has suddenly become suicidal in regards to his years of coaching successfully at this level, and now he's hell bent on destroying all of that.
