RGIII beats Andrew Luck

[Slidemaster]

Not all that smart, as it obviously took him getting his first concussion to realize he wasn't good enough to run around in the NFL like he did in college. Apparently, he got some sense "knocked" into him.
They hit just a little harder at his new level!

He's got an awful lot of rushing yards for someone who can't run at this level.

Hadley isn't interested in all of the facts and stats that refute his wishful thinking.

Yeah, and so far one concussion. He continues the running and eventually the yards will not be increasing but the the concussions will. Bank on it. Anybody with an ounce of sense doesn't want their "star" QB risking injury all the time by trying to play tailback. He needs to learn how to throw the ball away for his own health. He does his team no good being on the injury list.

Sounds more like you are talking about yourself in jumping the gun and proclaiming Cam Lite all that.

[HAIL2BNG]

Odd how someone can be the lite version of someone they are better than. Seriously, you have nothing but your supposition and hatred and can't back it up with anything. Every time I ask you for stats you don't have any. Every time I give you stats, you ignore them.

I call him that due to his lite physical stature compared to Newton. Newton punishes smaller defenders when he runs and not so with RGIII who receives the punishment. That is why I call him Cam Newton-Lite.

That's fine. And it's one person's opinion. No more; no less.

The biggest issue I have with RG3 is that it's clear to me he's going to be on IR at some point in his career -- and probably sooner, rather than later. He's already taken some monster hits, and will continue to take monster hits because of how often he runs the ball. It just doesn't work in the NFL. It never has, and it never will.

A) He doesn't run that often. He has less than 9 attempts per game and that includes him scrambling to the sidelines when he's flushed out of the pocket.
B) If you've watched the Redskins games this season, it's obvious that he's done a better job of protecting himself and making better running decisions during the games. There still seems to be 1 play a game where you wince, but really, it's no more than most QBs in an average game. He still needs to improve on this, but I think it's obvious he's made an adjustment and will continue to do so.

Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah a bunch of words from some nobody. Who cares? The real reason the Redskins are 6-6 is Pierre Garcon. I heard this morning on Sirius XM NFL channell 88 that the Redskins are 5-1 when Garcon plays. He gets so wide open that Billy Kilmer could come out of retirement and hit him with a TD pass. Without Garcon, they are 1-5. So obviously, Pierre Garcon is the Redskins MVP not RGIII. Whereas, clearly Luck is his team's MVP and should also be rookie of the year. How do you like them apples?

watched the game monday night .......

been right all along .......

he runs the option, mike vick jr ...........

had to laugh when gruden started talking about bubble screens .......

exciting player, fun to watch, having a heck of a year and shanahan has built a good offense around his strengths but more like mike vick than peyton manning or tom brady (or andrew luck) ......

I see an Adalius Thomas like tackle on him like he gave Vick in pre season several years ago. Maybe this week maybe not BUT it's coming.

Yeah, and he leads the league in passing efficiency over 20 yards. Keep making stuff up and stats will keep proving you wrong.

He's already in the Hall of Fame too. That didn't take long.

Spot on. He can ignore this obvious fact all he wants even though it is supported by a long history of running QB's having a high frequency of injuries and shortened careers, but Andrew Luck and Russell Wilson were hands down both much better draft picks.

He only does so because of his threat to run the ball, which unfortunately for him and nutty Redskins fans like you, is also eventually going to end his career prematurely, if he doesn't abandon the idea. At least the way he has been doing it. If he would learn to run out of bounds before getting hit and consistently slide down like Brady and Manning he would be okay. The question is, will he learn to do this before being ruined health wise? Then, if he does ever assume the normal way an NFL QB runs, will it limit his receivers getting wide open? So it is a catch 22, which is why Luck and Wilson are going to have better careers and were better and much smarter draft picks.

Now Wilson, the 5'11" 200 lb QB is better? Ha ha ha ha. Did you give up a kidney or a brain. You're such a hateful moron.

Look what Wilson is doing genius. He is playing at an incredible level for a rookie. Who cares about his size? Drew Brees is calling you out for your blatant stupidity with that statement. You just cannot handle the fact that two other rookie NFL QB's are better than yours. Neither one of them are gimmick QB's. They are the real deals.

[OriginalColtsFan]

I remember a few years ago when a poster here (I won't mention his name but it has "Ken" in it...) was just SLOBBERING ALL OVER VICK'S NUTSACK. I mean he wouldn't let go of it. VICK this and VICK that. How'd THAT work out for ya, Ken?

It's similar with RGIII. Although I think RGIII is a better passer than Vick; Vick was always weak in that dept, and still is. It's just that RGIII is a lot younger, stronger, and faster than Vick. And probably smarter, too. But that won't help protect him from the violent hits he's already taken, and will continue to take, which, like with a heavyweight boxer, all add up. It's the body shots that eventually topple the big hitters, and it's going to happen to RGIII, sooner rather than later.

Neither are better. I have stats to back that up. All you have is your ignorance.
