Re: Kudos to RG III

This was my favorite quote:

GRIFFIN: “It was interesting to see the different reactions. Larry Hess, our head trainer, was running down the sidelines. He said he was running the same 40 I was running. A lot of guys had some made-up thoughts in their heads. But it was cool.”

Re: Kudos to RG III

thing that has impressed me the most is his accuracy and vision and quick decision making... think its possible that he is going to the run more often than maybe finding another reciever but that will come with time... he's just very, very impressive in his quick read and react throws at this stage in his short NFL career.

I agree with the quickness. Most of the time, I can't tell one player from another in terms of an actual game move. I mean I can see the results on the field, but a qb arm motion is a qb arm motion. But I watch Griffin, and the quickness of his release when he starts throwing, the ball just seems to be gone. Several times, including the Garcon 88yd TD, a blitzer was coming right at him, and somehow the ball is just out of his hands.

Reminds me a bit of Marino in that, I remember he would step step step and the ball was just gone to his receiver.

Re: Kudos to RG III

yea he can really get it out quick... and you can see it the garcon td is a good example and some of the over the middle throw RIGHT after the ball fake throws last week and vs atl as well are good examples

Not sure what to make of this other than holy nit picking. So two of his five misses were drops?

Honestly I think it's more a veiled attempt to reinforce how excellent his accuracy has been when throwing.

I still remember during the first game vs. NO when RG3 handed the ball to Morris, then pretty much outran Morris to get in front and throw a block.
