Griffin's Injury Around the NFL
A small sample of fan thoughts around the league.
Chicago Bears:
Quote:
GermanssbombedPH Cutler gets pulled with MCL sprain --> quit on the team
RG3 plays until his leg is finally done --> should have benched him
I love double standards
Quote:
Rakk I agree with how some apply a double-standard, and am assume you mean those who flamed Cutler.
The decision to pull Cutler was correct, while the decision to not pull RGIII was reckless. Especially after the roll-out in the 2nd QTR when he went down near the sideline.
Judging by the way Mike and Bruce responded, it's safe to say that the 2013 draft will be one of the most pivotal and crucial in recent memory for this team.
We cried in the past over and over about how this team could never find middle round draft choices who could make contributions on the field.
