    Do you think this is the week the media stops blowing RGIII and gives Luck credit?

    Sick of hearing how RGIII is superman from these commentator's who want to make sure they aren't fired for racism or his fellow brothers in the NFL.

    Sure he has some talent but....what's his record? What is Andrew Luck's? Luck gets it done. Don't say RGIII isn't surrounded by a good team...like Luck is?

    They are just ecstatic to have a good black QB so they can stop having to pretend how great Cam is.

    is this a joke?

    everything about luck has been resoundingly positive

    rg3 has the type of ability to fill highlight reels....everyone knows luck is the better qb though

    He beat Tennessee guy, relax. Tenn easily one of the worst teams in the AFC. Redskins receivers are garbage (they played like it today). They dropped close to 10 passes today.

    You wouldn't know that from the coverage is what I'm saying. RGIII gets talked about more in a loss than Luck does in a win.

    The Redskins would be 0-8 with Luck though he is probably a hall of famer still

    Skins lost to the Rams and then the Bungals at home. They beat Tampa Bay, Minn, and NO(who aren't as good as we thought when they beat them).
    Indy had a few bad losses too like Jax and Jets but they beat Minn and GB along with Cleveland and Tenn

    Luck is for sure, barring injury, going to be the more successful QB long term

    Skins will be lucky to win 6 games, about time they stop talking about him.

    Played against no one good either, will be exposed like Newton.

    That hasn't been the case thus far...Luck has completed like 53% of his passes with an average of 6.70 yards per completion.
    RG3 has completed 70% of his passes with an average of 8.50 yard per completion.

    10 wr drops today. It was certainly an unbearable game to watch. Though griffin had a poor pass to logan paulsen that sailed way over his head. Could have been a TD if he hit his mark.

    Bigger story for the skins is their defense. Their secondary is historically bad this year.

    boy they sure talked him up last week. they forgot to mention his turnovers, the fact that eli left him a minute and a half with 2 time outs for RG3 to do his own amazing drive, and of course the fact that they lost and are dead last in their division. they spun that game like Eli hit some lucky miracle pass, when in fact he scored too early and left RG3 a ton of time to win the game and he couldn't do it.

    Hyping young players is nothing new...he definitely is exciting to watch and is doing extremely well for a rookie.

    well, you're right about all of that, i agree with you he is exciting. they should talk about the falcons this week some though, i mean it's still about winning and not just putting up big numbers as a rookie.

    he really did not have enough time to have a good shot, but the game ended on a Santana Moss fumble as well he cant throw the ball and catch it

    Random question...why did RGIII get all these endorsements and Andrew Luck got a cameo in a commercial for a video game is all?

    It isn't because he's good looking

    Rg3 brings excitement to the qb position. Just compare for instance Eli Manning to RG3; who would you market as an athlete? One barely knows how to run, the other runs a 4.3

    P.s. Bad example but i hope you got the point that rg3 is more "unique"

    cam was getting same hype last year even though his team's record was shitty. RG3 will continue to improve though he is in a much better franchise with Shanahan and he has a much better attitude.

    This has been happening for years. OMG an entire new way to play the QB position!

    *Defenses adjust, injuries ensue*

    He used to be more of a runner, but this renaissance man reinvented himself as a pocket passer!

    *Falls back on the run after passing thing doesn't work out, gets hurt more*

    This guy just isn't durable enough to play in the league! Does he have enough heart, skip? Has he given up? Time to start the new rookie?

    Ernie, he's got great accuracy, arm that is second to none, and has 4.3 speed..he also seems like an astute player. Give credit where it's due please. He's not that bad or dumb as you may believe.

    you're an idiot, Luck goes with the play calling and it has been a lot of deep balls... and he is a rook, of course that is going to lower his completion %

    he stands in the pocket and even as guys get their hand on him, he gets passes off and on target in critical situations (Packers game and Titans game today come to mind for big passes converted on 3rd down)

    4-3 record and the only guy who is a true Vet he has to throw to is Wayne. That's it. Also had a lead vs Jags and defense blew that one. Could be 5-2 easily.

    Has a defense that hasn't forced a turnover now in 3 str8 games, but Colts are 2-1. 3 yards away from a 300 yard road passing performance.

    I wish RG3 still had Garcon out there playing each week.
