Well, color me confused.

All I’ve read on here is how Brady is over-rated, wouldn’t be anywhere without Belichick, is a product of the system, owned by Eli and is a sissy girlie man who complains as much or more than Dwayne-cry-baby-Wade during games.

Then I see he is in the top 5 of the NFL top 100, as voted by OTHER NFL players.

Guess we simply have to consider the sources, geography and agendas when forming opinions of NFL players…
I’ll take the word of fellow NFL players every time..
Sorry haters….you lose

I guess it was just something else for the Media to run with.

No need to play the games guys. It was fun while it lasted I guess.

Secondly, even if he wore Heath Ledger’s Joker suit from Batman, does it matter? The second overall pick in the NFL draft, especially one who cost two extra first rounders, should be allowed to wear whatever he wants.

I know this was a tremendous nonsequiter, but I was just really surprised to find that that when I saw the post just now, it had two thumbs up and no thumbs down despite being simply untrue.

I don’t want to go on and on, I think that a blatantly false personal attack about completely inconsequential details receiving two thumbs up is emblematic of the larger point that people really seem to be going out of their way to hate Robert Griffin.

I’m by no means a Redskins fan, and while we can talk about Griffin’s potential as a football player all day; as an individual, Griffin has clearly delivered.

Griffin III is a very bright kid, he’s humble, a good leader, and just a genuinely likable guy. It’s difficult to understand where all the hatred and personal attacks have suddenly sprang up from. Even if you don’t like Griffin personally, at least admit that the sudden firestorm of hatred is weird.

laserw, can you go away please? Everyone knows you’re not a Redskins fan. You’re probably just peytonsneck writing under another name. Every post you’ve ever written on this site follows the formula of “I’m a diehard Redskins fan, but I think Robert Griffin is the worst quarterback to ever pick up a football and I hope he and his family die in horrible car crash.”

While Washington fans being cautious in their praise of the Third makes sense, simply declaring your undying hatred of the kid is bizarre.

A quote like: “I’m a Redskins fan and I hope Griffin is as good as he cracked up to be, although I am worried about this particular aspect of his game…” makes sense. Some might not agree, but it is a justifiable and understandable stance.

On the other hand, when every single one of your posts fervently declares that Griffin does not possess the skills to play high school quarterback you simply come off as an asinine annoyance.

Oh, another RGIII butt-kissing article….

Knew I came back too early….
_______

How does this article kiss Griffin’s butt in any way? The article is about a Washington receiver kissing Griffin’s butt. The article itself, however, clearly casts both Morgan and Griffin in a ridiculous light.

While it would be great for the Redskins if Morgan’s assessment is correct, nobody in Washington comes out of the article looking good.

I don’t want to imply any bias on the part of PFT, nor do I want to bring Andrew Luck into this discussion at all. But let’s compare the last article on PFT about Luck to the last article on PFT about Griffin (this one).

The last article about Luck discussed the kid’s comments at a press conference in which he called himself a boneheaded rookie, and looked like the smart, humble kid he is. In this article we learn about a Redskins receiver gushing about his quarterback to the point where they both look ridiculous.

The point is that even if Griffin does have the arm of Peyton, the mind of Brady, the legs of Vick, the claws of Wolverine, and whatever else, these qualities are effectively diminished by Morgan’s over-the-top praise.

As a Redskins fan, I do hope he lives up to the hype, but we’ve certainly seen our share of busts all over the NFL at the QB position in the last 20 years, including Heath Shuler-Who would think we’d be saying, “Aw, we should have picked Trent Dilfer!”????

Therefore, I’ll hold my breath, watch, and hope

…comparing a rookie to two elite QBs and Vick…

——————————————————

Nicely put. Two elite qb’s and a Vick-like one.

The next successful, HOF-caliber “scrambling” QB will also be the first one. The list goes something like:

Randal Cunningham
Steve Young*
Kordel “Slash” Stewart
Rich Gannon*
Donovan McNabb*
Daunte Colpepper
Mike Vick circa ATL
Jamarcus Russell
Tarvaris Jackson
Ben Roethlisberger*
Vince Young
—————————-
Aaron Rogers*
Mike Vick circa PHI
Cam Newton*
Tyrell Pryor
RGIII
Russell Wilson

* = Not really “Vick-like”, though noted for picking up yards on the ground. Denotes “makes plays with his legs” type pocket passers, as opposed to genuinely “run first” guys.

It’s interesting to me that the penultimate Vick-type, Vick himself, criticizes himself frequently for not staying home in the pocket more. Maybe Andy Reed and Jim Mora Jr read him the list?

Under Shannahan, RGIII is gonna be asked to play the Jake Plummer/Jay Cutler role, in terms of lots of bootlegs and rollouts and PA off of the above. His neotraditional college “spread” offense pedigree will be no help there. Tell me how well he’ll adapt and I’ll tell you how well he’ll do in WAS (under Shannahan, anyway).

Poor Randy Moss if he was a QB … the media would have never attacked him … go figure.

Ten digits up fellas…freakin HILARIOUS!!!
