Re: Is RGIII The New Face of The NFL?

Brady and Manning have perfected QB play in the pocket. Payton is a coach out there picking you apart based on his reads. I'm not sure RG3 can do that yet but he is to DE and LB what Payton is to DBs. You have to be perfect and no one is so Defensive Coordinators have to go to the drawing board to mitigate the damage he causes. Any time that happens the game of football has been elevated. My wife put it best "RG3 makes the game unfair."

RG3 is a welcome distraction for the entire country. Everyone is talking about him. IMO Luck sucks. I know people will disagree, but imagine if any of the other rookie QBs had 18 INTs. But, we will see though.

Re: Is RGIII The New Face of The NFL?

it's a pretty clear "YES!"

his endorsement deals are off the charts
he's killing it on the field
he's fun and humble

what's not to like?

Re: Is RGIII The New Face of The NFL?

If Griffin III keeps playing like he's been playing as a rookie, imagine by the time he's in his 5th or 6th season in the league he could very well be the first ever pro football pop icon! It doesn't really matter how long he plays, but as soon as he wins a Super Bowl and the Redskins begin having 11-5/12-4/13-3/14-2 type seasons as was the case in the 1980s and early 1990s, then they will begin to talk about RG3 being a first ballot HOFer because as a rookie, who would be a senior at Baylor right now had he not declared for the 2012 NFL draft, he's outshined veteran quarterbacks in the NFL already, including the Peyton Mannings and Tom Bradys.

Re: Is RGIII The New Face of The NFL?

My friend thinks he could be the next Michael Jordan of SPORTS. Not just the NFL, but that name that all athletes speak of, and that endorsers run to first. Wouldn't shock me if RG3 is in a movie in the next 10 years...


He's that popular and that liked

As a redskins fan I can honestly say coverage is getting a bit much, I can only imagine how torturous this must be for resident Jets fan smootsmack.

Just gotta keep RG3 healthy and no doubt he has the potential to be one of the greats.

Not yet. For now it's still Peyton Manning and Tom Brady but as long as RG3 stays reasonably healthy he'll be the guy. His rookie season reminds me a lot though of the type of buzz Ovechkin generated save the partying.

He's pretty close and it's great honestly!! Finally a redskin being that GUY it's like a dang dream in redskins land. I do agree with some here that ESPN is WAY to in love with griff. If I wasn't a skins fan I'd be tired of it. It's almost tebow like

One interview that made me love RG3 more then I already do (which I didn't think was possible) had RG3 saying that he's not to eager to be on the cover of Madden not because he's scared of the curse but because Skins nation would be worried.

I'm hoping he doesn't get it which I think is possible seeing as how I thought Cam Newton was a lock to get the most recent cover but then again he probably will win it.
