Here it is....

Could RG3 become the first 3,000/1,000 QB? The third player named ROY and MVP? - The Penalty Flag

Heading into the Week 13 game against the New York Giants, Griffin has thrown for 2,504 yards with 16 touchdowns and just four interceptions. He has completed nearly 68 percent of his passes for the season. RG3 has 99 carries on the year for 642 yards and six scores on the ground. There have been dual threat QB’s from the past and we all know them: MIke Vick, Bobby Douglas, Randall Cunningham, and John Elway; the list could go on and on. Vick is the only QB to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season and done that in 2006 with 1,039. Bobby Douglas ran for 968 yards and 8 touchdowns on the ground in 1972. Cunningham ran for 942 on the ground in 1990. He had over 3,400 yards passing that season and came the closest of any QB before or since to throw for 3,000 yards and rush for 1,000 yards in a season. Could that be until RG3?

He should, baring anything crazy hit the passing mark fine, but I think he needs to average something like 71 Yards Rushing per game now to beat the rushing mark. It's a little above his average but he has had games of over a hundred too, so who knows. I'm hoping he does so that he can have some true 1 of stats.

I'd love to see in 20 years, some Rookie QB playing to try and break RG3's records and or be the 2nd one in History to hit that milestone. Would be great to see the of that time period announcers saying "This kid is trying to match or become the second person in history to do this since Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin the Third." Then the co anchor, some x player who played at the time of Griff saying "Man I played against Griffin and man was he fast, it was almost impossible to contain him."
