Would have been in competition with Gabbert for third string.

"But in retrospect, nobody anticipated that Palmer would go down with a season-ending injury."

Except all of us.

Thank goodness he did.

Thank goodness he did.

right?? or right now we would be hearing our coaching staff saying, "well at least we have an experienced veteran QB to build around"

I think this was reported a while back...at least I heard about it a while back.

Dumb move on RG3's part, but who knows how it really would have played out???

Who cares. He's terrible.

He can only run a read option, Arians offense is like speaking Arabic for him, he is not a pocket passer

Can't believe they even thought to make him an offer in the first place. What the hell were they thinking?

 

[Red Bird]

I thought this was reported as being false?

 

[SoCal Cardfan]

I think he was offered the job as the Big Red mascot, those long skinny legs would be great in a bird costume.

There it is.

Gotta wonder, though: Would RGIII be a better fit on a Wilks/McCoy-coached team?

 

[Metcalf Rules]

Have fun in the XFL.

If that's the case, why did Cards call him?

I really wonder was Arians gonna change his scheme I doubt it; RG3; Tebow, Kaep , Manziel all read option qbs, which barely any teams still use. Do to Zone rushing schemes the Read option offense will be extinct. So I have no idea why? I mean I could see them going after Mettenberger he fits Arians scheme and QB style, RG3 is complete opposite of what Arians looks for in a QB
