He will tell you Griffin's three injuries last season all occurred on passing plays. And then, he'll tell you what he believes is the real area of concern: All of his life, Griffin has been outrunning defenders. The quarterback has never been forced to learn how to throw the ball away or slide or run out of bounds.
