Re: Griffin's Impact on our Offense

Two games stood out in Rg3's last year at Baylor. The game against Oklahoma in which he threw for 479 yards and the game against Washington Huskies to close out his collegiate career. Baylor racked up a mentally ill 500 plus yards rushing in that game.

With Griffin, Helu, and Royster, imagine if the Redskins were capable of rushing for 300 yards a game and taking pressure off of Griffin's passing game by racking up crazy numbers on the ground. Mike Shanahan has always like to run the ball so don't be surprised if the Redskins call plays for RG3 to incorporate into the Redskins running game. That my friends, will only open up the pass once that safety creeps up to the line of scrimmage.

Re: Griffin's Impact on our Offense

The Panthers offensive line is NOT far better than ours. Jeff Otah their RT can't stay healthy (sound familiar?) Jordan Gross is on the downside of his career but still a good tackle, Ryan Khalil top notch center but their guards are average at best. This is an example of a QB making an average O-Line better than it is. Ben Roethlisberger been doing it since he got into the league, Eli Manning did it this year. Our offensive line is NOT the crap fest you and a lot of others make it out to be.

If you use the quote feature you could avoid false claims like the one above.
I do not make our OL out be a 'crap fest'
The Panthers having a better OL then us isn't the same as saying our OL is crap.

Don't think it takes into account any of our injuries. Our depth has been our main Achilles. (even though I agree the Panthers OL is better than ours)

When was the last time the Redskins were quarterbacked by a guy who wasn't picked in the first round? Brunell/Collins right? And before that, you have to go all the way back to Tony Banks.

John Beck, Shane Matthews, Danny Whuerffel?

The last time was last season. John Beck is the answer. Beck was a second round draft selection. Before then it was Todd Collins and Mark Brunell. Traditionally, the Redskins haven't had a lot of quarterbacks drafted in the first round.

Jason Campbell? Rex Grossman? Patrick Ramsey? We've actually had at least one first round QB playing for much of the last decade.

GTripp is right. Super Bowls are won by first round QB's but not all first round QB's win Super Bowls.

Love this graphic! Hopefully, RGIII will be the first QB #2 pick to be Super Bowl MVP.

Stay away from QBs in the 6th round, huh?
