Leno has to got to be one of the worst interviewers out there. He acts disinterested and comes off totally disingenuous. His questions are so canned and he rarely follows up on an interesting point, he just moves on to the next question.

I love hearing/reading about Mike Shanahan talking/gushing about Griff:

Transcript of Redskins coach Mike Shanahan on PFT Live | ProFootballTalk

I thought he had a lot of poise, he’s fearless in the pocket he wasn’t afraid to stay in the pocket and throw the ball and face some pressure....Robert who can make the type of plays he’s made, throwing the football, his mobility, his arm strength, his poise, you know, he’s a natural thrower. I think he’s got what you look for

Re: RGIII Named Starter

I bit the bullet and watched it. I don't think I've ever seen another QB drafted that is as charismatic as RGIII. This guy's personality and charm is through the roof, and he's smart and talented out the ass.

What is really amazing to me is the fact that every one of his answers is a story that he has obviously told hundreds of times by now (and I doubt that's even an exaggeration) yet he comes off as if it was the first time he has told it. I absolutely hope his on field play matches, but I think it is without question that the team will rally around him in the games. We finally(!) have a leader on offense, and that's a GREAT thing.

Re: RGIII Named Starter

NC I agree. RG has a bright future ahead of him. I could see him being a broadcaster, analyst, or just in entertainment when his career is over. He could become the new face of the nfl if he is as good as advertised.

Re: RGIII Named Starter

His star power is definitely off the charts. As long as his play matches it, he will indeed be a true superstar not only in the league, but he will be a household name in pop culture. Can't wait to see this kid on the field.
