I see a bit of the Brees/Warner likeness as well. Anytime someone works to be great at something like an organized sport there's a certain amount of self-involvement that becomes inevitable, which is different than selfishness I think.

But I was talking about style of play regarding McNair, which I think will be limited in similarity. McNair was a hulk of a QB who extended plays w/ sheer strength and power. Griffin doesn't have that kind of bulk/strength and will have to extend plays w/ his quickness, speed and hopefully good vision. Also, I think Griffin is more accurate already, but we're waiting to see if he can adjust to the speed of pro ball.
