The first game of the preseason was a disaster for the Redskins’ offensive line. They failed to protect RG3, which led to the star QB to take multiple hits and eventually he had to leave the game with a concussion.

On Thursday, RG3 was asked about the problems with the team’s offensive line and while he didn’t point any fingers, he also didn’t blame himself.
After the press conference, ESPN’s Jason Reid took to Twitter to point out that coaches have told him throughout the years that “several offensive lineman dislike Griffin” because he’s never willing to be critical of himself and take some part of the blame.
After Reid’s tweets I searched around the Internet for some proof that would show if there was any friction between RG3 and the offensive line on the football field.
After a quick search, I found a ton of GIFS on the Internet of RG3 getting crushed and several Redskins offensive linemen straight up ignoring him while he rolled around in pain.
This GIF looks like a replay of the last play, but nope it’s a different play. Just a bunch of Redskins O-linemen minding their own business while a bunch of 49ers walk all over RG3.
No help here.
This dude is is basically dancing on RG3’s grave, and nope, no help
Need a little help here.
This tweet is from 2013 and still relevant.
One observation on 49ers/Redskins, when RGIII gets knocked down or sacked, no teammates help him up. Very telling, IMO.
