Griffin vs Newton

[Marguide]

For Chef17 (on phone, can't quote), yes Rodgers is a good runner. I should have phrased that better. My point was that he isn't in the same class as Cam when it comes to running. I expect Luck to be a lot like AR in the mobility department.

Guys like Cunningham, Tarkenton and Steve Young are more like Cam imo, with guys like AR, Luck, and RGIII a notch below.

anyone remember michael bates or jeremy bloom?

those guys were actually olympic athletes.

Bates actually did some things on the football field that are worth remembering.

Newton can jump over mountains and wrestle tigers.

Naw man, Superman can only leap tall buildings in a single bound, remember?

If Alex Smith could run he'd be The Golden Calf of Bristol

You guys are starting to hate on Griffin like others did on Newton last year. Interesting.

Guess we'll see at the end of the season. I've already placed bets that RG3 will win more games then Cam did in his rookie season. I also have a bet with someone here that the Redskins will beat Carolina this year so i'm confident and willing to backup my statements.

Hmmmm....way to go out on a limb with your prediction.

BTW..Why don't you tell us how RGIII as a QB will perform. His team was ahead of the Panthers in wins last season without him, so your prediction seems mute. Remember that Washington moved up 10 spots to get him at # 2. That means the team had more wins than the Panthers with another QB last season. If they get more wins this season than the Panthers is it really RGIII or the team as a whole?

Now if you had said that about the Colts, then I would take you seroiusly.

Clear to see you're not a Cam supporter. Are you even a Panther's fan?

Isn't it funny how these sports folks refuse to pit RGIII against Luck in the rookie QB arena but is trying to elevate them both against Cam. Shows how much they really didn't want him to succeed and how much he's shocked them.

Anyway, the article said that both RG III and Cousins tore the receiver's glove.

I'll make a judgement when he plays his first down in the NFL and I'm not talking about preseason...

Wow, a QB that splits receiver gloves in practice!

Welcome to the club of NFL QB's with decent arm strength, it happens in every practice to every receiver that is catching a lot balls from a QB with a good arm, but it's only news (hype) worthy when RG3sus does it.

I'm not hating on RG3, I'm hating on the RG3 hype (which isn't doing him any favors).

Last year it was all about what Cam couldn't do... now that Cam did what he did, it's all about what RG3 can do.

INTERESTING.

This is what I have been saying!

I think the fact that RG3 possesses all the attributes you would need as a franchise quarterback along with outstanding character and leadership is why everyone is so full of awe and respect for the man.

Oh my god. In "awe"? Give me a damn break.
