Grossman Ready To Mentor Rgiii

[bap1331]

"I know they're going to draft a franchise QB," Grossman told ESPN 980 on Saturday night, via ProFootballTalk.com. "If I'm on the team, I'm gonna help out that guy get up to speed, but I'll also be ready to play. I'm gonna be a good soldier, and I'll be busting my butt to help him out."

I think the last thing they need is Grossman mentoring a young rookie. He is going to teach him how to blow games when they are on the line.

oh yea great choice in a mentor (sarcastic)

[Moose Of Woe]

Lesson 1: Don't do what I do.

/End Mentorship.

Perfect...doesn't do RGIII much good when his mentor needs a mentor.

"How to throw critical interceptions in three easy lessons" by Rex Grossman

[presto123]

Man you guys are hard on Sexy Rexy

[RGIII]

I think the quote is great... because it sounds an awful lot like Shanahan made it clear to Rex that he's already second on the depth chart. Rex as a mentor won't be terrible, either. He knows the offense well enough and its not like he can pass on his severe physical limitations and lack of field vision to RGIII (unless it's caused by some sort of as yet undiscovered disease in which case I will weep).

[JoKeR]

Grossman should be happy for the ride. He's gonna hold onto that clipboard longer than he holds onto footballs*

*he fumbles a lot (strip/fumbles)*

[21isSuperman]

I would have thought Grossman would actually have said something like "I am ready and more than willing to be mentored by RG3"

[Andy]

Rex Grossman mentoring? Ha. I'd like to see how that goes. I think RG3 will end up mentoring Rex

[nburgmei]

To Grossman's credit, it is actually possible to be better at mentoring a subject than actually performing just like great performers can be terrible mentors.

[Poster X]

Hey, this could turn out to be a good thing. After all This is "Sexy Rexy," and not just your average quarterback we are talking about here.

As the old sayin goes "those who can, do. Those who cant, teach".

I've always hated that saying.

... and in other news today the Redskins have released Rex Grossman with the statement "No, and heck No!"

[Moncrief]

[LJpalmbeacher2]

Grossman mentoring RG3 is like Painte(if he were still with us) mentoring Luck.

[Gavin]

Id say 4 games tops and RGIII will be in thats if washington wants even a small shot at getting a wild card

[Gavin]

[FairleySuhper]

This is Gross

Rex Grossman: "Okay kid, I'm going to teach you everything you need to know."

RG III: "I know you're a veteran and I'm just a rookie, but you're joking, right?"
