ESPN Had a Camera on RG III “Injury, Fatigue and Frustration” Watch

Sarah Kogod over at DC Sports Bog was kind enough to transcribe the notes:
1 – Skins offense on the field – RG3 injury watch – NEVER LEAVE HIM – Follow to the bench after the series.
2 – Stay with him if there is an issue – injury, fatigue, frustration.
3 – When RG3 throws a TD pass, be ready on my cue to you – pick up his parents or…[handwritten note about Dr. James Andrews]
4 – Eagles on Offense – sit on Jim Haslett, it is an automatic cut and will be used in a split screen with Chip Kelly.
5 – Pregame: Iso of RG3 parents for runout, 1st time on field, TD run or pass after the play. After a big hit.
1) Love how injury watch was number one. It’s obvious, but also: ratings! 2) Stay with him after fatigue, frustration and big hits?! This guy was busy last night. Although I’m surprised there wasn’t a note on there to show concerned Dr. James Andrews every time it was apparent that RG III was rushed back and could have used another week or two of practice.
I suppose there wasn’t a LeSean McCoy dedicated cam. But that’s probably for the best– poor guy would’ve gotten whiplash trying to follow that around the field.
