I would have wagered that the back up had a weak arm. That is some interesting stuff. Thanks guys.

I think analysts have finally wised up to this as well. I've seen a few say that you can't compare Griffin to anyone because he's so unique.

There is Batman. Not sure if he played QB though.

Yeah most people forget that Walsh got his start in Al Davis' vertical offense and that was the plan for Greg Cook in Cincy

Love all the links here talking about RG3. Even if the hype is unbelievable, he's meeting unbelievable expectations this season.

Re: Kudos to RG III



Now that right there is funny.

RG3 is the man. He is the franchise QB. He is a top 10 NFL QB. End of story.


Side note, I am SOOO happy now that Matt Barkley did NOT declare for the draft, because who knows what would have happened. Glad we got our guy; aka the right guy.

Re: Kudos to RG III

I thought we had heard some inside rumblings that weren't necessarily public about RGIII being the choice regardless if Barkley came out or not. I see Barkley being as good as the other USC QBs over the last 12 years. Basically serviceable but not good enough to elevate talent around them and compensate for not having a perfect roster.

Sanchez, Liehnert, and Palmer. Not exactly world beaters, and definitely not players I would spend what we did to get them.

I'll say that I, for one, was not as confident with the intel that we were strongly after RG3...but confident that we weren't remotely interested in Barkley.
