and you must be kidding if you think RG3's only issue is his attitude.. His footwork is absolutely ATROCIOUS and so is just about everything else with his passing mechanics. When the former HOF QB's are saying you need to "start over" on how you approach the game and with being trained how to play the game, you have a serious issue. Rg3 is average on his best day in the NFL, Cousins was better than him from day one and now everyone knows it. Good thing Cousins doesn't believe in God too much
Gabbert has 27 starts, so not even 2 full seasons worth. I think you can he was pushed aside to a degree. RGIII was benched this year, which is his 3rd season, so who knows when/if he will be a starter again. Bradford has always been the starter when healthy, he is at least a solid player. And sorry, but RGII has completed over 60% of his passes every season, and his rookie year has a QB rating over 100 and ran for over 800 yards. When healthy and when he isnt full of himself, Griffin can certainly be a quality NFL QB. As much as I wanted Tebow to succeed too, you can't possibly argue he showed anywhere near the potential of Bradford or Griffin. Gabbert sure, but Gabbert was benched and shown the door in Jacksonville pretty quickly.
And Cousins had his chance this year, and was benched for Colt McCoy. People thought Cousins was better based on limited playing time. When given the opportunity to start, he fell flat on his face, so not sure why you are trying to praise him.
