You better get used to it. When all is said and done, he is going to be more obsequious than Peyton Manning, Bo Jackson or Michael Jordan.

... and all the fame could vanish in a moment. Let the boy play ... as long as it doesn't affect his play.
I don't see him like McNabb at all. Part of it really isn't even his own fault. The media has crowned the guy before he's even really done anything.

Well, the media crowned him based on the Skins' megatrade. At that point he was destined for media spotlight whether he succeeds or fails. Fortunately for Skins fans everywhere, it seems apparent that it will be based on success.

Yeah just one of the best rookie seasons ever for a QB, won the division, etc. Basically he lived up to the hype and then some.
