Redskins' Jay Gruden intends to start RG3 on Sunday vs. Colts
Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III is, at the moment, penciled in to start Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts.
Asked Monday if he's considering a change at quarterback, head coach Jay Gruden said Griffin isn't entirely to blame for the team's lack of production and will get the start Sunday.
However, as Tarik El-Bashier of CSNWashington.com notes, that could change.
Pressed on RG3's performance, Gruden said: We have every intent to start Robert onSunday." Still, Gruden didn't make it sound 100-percent.

Griffin struggled in the Redskins' 17-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, completing 11-of-19 passes for 103 yards and no touchdowns. It was the third consecutive loss for Washington, and marks the sixth time in the past seven seasons that the team will fail to finish with a winning record.
