RG3 is being hyped up by the media because they desperately want someone to overshadow Cam. All I've heard is how intelligent & accurate he is. That he is nothing like Michael Vick. Well sorry ESPN, RG3 looked like Vick 2.0 to me.

-horrible pocket presence

-overthrew multiple times on check downs

-rarely looked downfield

-looks at his 1st option then throws check down or takes off running

-has a small body & takes some nasty hits

-o-line has to call his protection for him

I had never watched him play. Just heard all the hype. He is the next coming of Joe Montana from the way he is described. To me all I saw was a QB with poor pocket awareness who throws a check down or takes off running. Not impressed.

Washington has 0 1st rd picks until 2015. Their fans are being sucked in by fool's gold.

Cam obviously played better, but I don't thing rg3 played as bad as his stats looked. His overthrows on check downs were all from trying to loft the ball over a jumping lineman and avoid having his passes batted down.

I think he eventually ends up pretty good. In fact I think all 5 rookie qbs starting look pretty good. Which is probably bad news for qbs looking to enter the draft, because it doesn't seem like many teams will be wanting to use a high pick on one. Arizona, KC, and maybe buffalo.

But I still take Cam over all of them.

I have to disagree here... I don't think ALL his overthrows on check downs were for that reason.

Sometimes he just plain overthrew the ball... kinda like Cam does and takes poo for it.

We're 2-6... And they hate Cam! Did you really think that they would give Cam props for throwing a dime to Smitty while his thumbnail (on his throwing hand) was split in half and bleeding profusely?

If that were Brady, or a manning, Matt Ryan or anyone like that, they would spend hours talking about how tough that guy is being able to play through that and make a perfect TD pass and so on forever. They won't even dare mention it since it happened to Cam

I have a feeling when we win the Super Bowl Cam will poo all over the media. He's gonna get that Lombardi Trophy, fly to Charlotte, & celebrate with his teammates & fans. When the media tries to come around he'll tell them to piss off.

That would be awesome. Tell em to kill rocks.

      If he tries to do that I have a feeling the league is gonna tell him to butt out.

      Bryce Young is HIM.

      I think you are at a major advantage if you have the ability to run the football as a quarterback. It can mask a lot of issues. Much like RG3, or Anthony Richardson, immediate impact is a lot easier with a running QB. Anthony Richardson already appears to be a bust, despite him turning some heads early last year. Vince Young was a ROY. I do think Jayden is a lot better than a lot of those guys, but I think he's got a fair amount of development to do as well.  Stroud looks a lot better than Bryce, I won't dispute that, but he's taken a very big step back this year off of last year. Houston has a myriad of issues on the offensive side of the ball.  This is just a trend we seem to be seeing everywhere. Very few QB's are pro ready anymore, and just when we are ready to give up on a guy, he does the thing where he becomes competent, (not necessarily good). Sam Bradford, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, Geno Smith, Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota, and so on and so forth. The list of evidence is enormous. But to your point, the highest miss rate of any position in football is quarterback. The vast majority of them do not pan out. More than likely, that is the case here.
