Sources say benching RG3 was a football decision based on poor performance...

..Shanahan didn't want to throw RG3 under the bus by stating poor performance as the reason...

...RG3 is confused by the rationale cited by Shanahan for benching him...

...Shanahan, according to sources, felt he had to bench RG3 to maintain credibility with the team (given RG3's regression)...

Washington needs Cousins to beast since this is a clear trade showcase....NFL insiders said they might get as much as a 2nd rounder from some sucker team.
