Daily Dawg Tags: RG3 may be back soon
Spanning the virtual globe to bring you the latest news about the Cleveland Browns and the NFL – these are your Daily Dawg Tags for Wednesday, Nov. 16.
With a record of 0-10, Hue Jackson and the Cleveland Browns are open to anything to get this team a victory. Putting Robert Griffin III back in the starting quarterback role may be the next move.
Griffin is set to return to practice this week, but he would not likely play in a game until Week 14, following the team’s bye week.
The two opponents before Week 14 are the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New York Giants, so the likelihood of 0-12 is better than 1-11 or the improbable mark of 2-10.
If the team is winless with four to play, Jackson should go to Griffin. The offense was built around him at the beginning of the season, only for an injury to begin the carousel that is the quarterback position in Cleveland.
Ultimately, putting Griffin in there does no harm, as a change may be good for the offense. Cody Kessler and Josh McCown have been solid, but neither has done enough to get a win. The defense is a major problem this year, but perhaps Griffin can help lead an offensive explosion. Let’s take a look at that and more in today’s edition of the Daily Dawg Tags.
