Donovan McNabb thinks RGIII is doing too much

[gho3st]

“It’s too much right now; it’s just too much,” McNabb said in a candid interview with The Washington Post. “I get some of things he’s doing to draw attention to himself: the Adidas commercials, going out and enjoying the life of a young, famous NFL quarterback. I understand RG has a lot of stuff going on.

“But if you’re coming off (anterior cruciate ligament) surgery, you don’t need to be having a press conference at (organized team activities). Every week? Really? It becomes a circus, a sideshow. It takes away from the focus of what those sessions are supposed to be about: the team.”

So when I look up on TV and see him up there talking all the time about how great he’s doing — or doing jumping jacks or someone else talking about his supernatural healing powers — I wonder to myself: Is this about selling tickets to the fans or what?

“I don’t blame him. They’re letting him do it. But at some point, it can be counterproductive. You can set yourself up for more criticism later.”

“Especially if Robert doesn’t play at first or isn’t right for the first eight weeks and it takes a while for him to become the player he was,” McNabb said. “So what if you start 2-6 or 3-5? Then everybody wonders what happened, starts thinking, ‘But wait, you told us he was great a few months ago. He told us he was great.’ “

I love Rob but he's setting himself up...Steven A Smith has said the same thing

I'm with you on this. I like RGIII but the media is setting this dude up, just like Tebow. I can't speak for other media beside U.S. but they build you up, to tear you down. Just like Tebow, I think RGIII is saying and doing whatever the media wants to hear. Its gonna get to the point where, RGIII is going to get critique on every single play. It's gonna stop being about the team and just about RGIII.

Donovan is spot on though. RG3 and his daddy need to keep quiet for a while and just get work done. Nothing wrong with going to social events but him constantly commenting on what happened with the knee in the Seattle game and him with the jumping jacks needs to stop. I never fell for the "humble kid" facade, he seems pretty cocky to me but he is a beast on the field and that's all that matters.

well then. here's a short list of things that i, as a lifelong skins fan, don't care about:

-who he marries
-who tries to extort him
-what kind of hairstyle he has
-what his dad says, in general
-what he does in his free time
-his socioreligious views
-what some schmuck on a 3rd rate "sports reporters" show thinks of him
-whether or not he's humble

none of that shyt matters to me. and dude has always been incredibly vocally confident and borderline cocky, but reporters were too busy fawning over his GPA to notice it. hence me ignoring all the shyt they report on and simply watching football

mattafact washington post reporters for still entertaining this scorned bytch mcnabb's thoughts on a team he should never have been a part of to begin with

I like McNabb but he does come off as scorned at times. Let's be real though, he never got the respect he deserved in Philly. I actually thought it was going to work here in D.C. for him.

He's required by the league to be available to the media at certain times like every other NFL player. Then when he is they always ask him the same shyt. how's your knee? who's fault was it? blah blah blah The reason why he keeps commenting on his knee is because that's ALL reporters ask him about no matter how much he tries to shfit attention to the team.

He went to a draft day party like any other team holds and just so happened to do jumping jacks to get the fans pumped. What is cocky about that

Yall actin brand new with the way the media operates. same shyt different player. They did this when Tebow first came on, LBJ, etc.

EDIT: just realized this was a Mike Wise article. that nikka is the worst. desperate to try to find anything negative to report on to get his name out there

This is hilarious coming from McNabb....that bloated washed up piece of shyt couldn't even stay in shape...talmbat how RG3 is doing too much

Maybe if his fat ass did more and possibly did too much, he wouldn't have been in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl...and Freddie Mitchell wouldn't have been calling plays

this all. And he hasnt been borderline cocky, he has been VERY cocky. He just does it in the Peyton Manning/Tom Brady way that the media likes and makes the Rob Parker-types on this forum mad.

But honestly, I dont give a fukk about any of this shyt. All I care about is his play on the field.

McNabb knows the cacs aka the media, are waiting for RGIII to fall so they can bury his ass, he's trying to look out of the dude

Soon as RGIII has a bad game, they gonna be calling for Cousins to bring his ass in
