Drew Brees' ring has gone missing!

Pro QB's also don't throw for 5,000 yards. Those are college numbers anyway.

Dan Marino did. Its not about numbers it about style. Brees is a passer who can elude pressure and extend plays. RGIII is another version of Michael Vick (a runner who is an ok passer) and that doesnt win Super Bowls. Sure RGIII threw for a bunch of yards but in college WRs are open by yards and in the pros its inches so college numbers are often misleading. I'm just not sure about RGIII's accuracy.

You're not sure about RG3's accuracy because you don't watch college football. RG3 is an outstanding passer with great accuracy. No one throws the deep ball with more accuracy than RG3. To say he's just an ok passer if flat out wrong. He's more than just an ok passer.

There you go again. Taking anything negative anyone says about RGIII personally, and reacting by assuming that anyone who doesn't love him must never watch any college football. Stop it dude. Your man crush on RGIII is exhausting.

So you are not sold on this guy? What do you think the skins should do? I am not provoking you, I am genuinely baffled and have had the discussion with my fellow fans countless times and the opinions vary from trade up to get Luck if the Rams trump the Colts for worst record to signing Peyton Manning as a two year stop-gap.

So do you agree or disagree with my assessment? Go right ahead and challenge me so I can make you look like buffoon once again.

Re: RGIII declares for NFL draft

Lets evaluate the QB's the way Shanahan will.

You can't evaluate a guy based on his highlights.

Be careful. And I'm sorry your memory is failing you, but last time it was myself and CRedskinsRule that made you look extremely buffoon-ish. You got basically got punked and never responded.

First of all, everything that I said turned about to be true. How can you make me look like a buffoon when you turn out to be wrong?

I don't watch one second of college ball. Thanks for the take man. Accuracy in a QB is all I think about. Accuracy is of pinnacle importance to me. I remember like it was yesterday the draft where everyone was talking about Alex Smith and I kept thinking, "but this Rodgers guy has pinpoint accuracy!". If you say RG3 has accuracy on top of all his other gifts, then I say, get him by any means necessary.

Yes, he's an extremely accurate passer. I would trade up to get him for a reasonable price.

Plenty of different types of QB have won superbowls, to include 'athletic' or 'scrambling' QBs; just like many different types of QBs failed to win superbowls to include pocket passers.

Second, Mike Vick has always been a gifted passer, his decision making and knowledge of the passing game was horrendous.
He's just now become a better decision maker.

When you refer to RGIII as a version of Vick, you're paying RGIII a huge compliment. (remember: Vick was the unquestioned No.1 pick in his draft class)

I agree college numbers are misleading, and all college QBs will have to make the adjustment passing into smaller windows in the NFL.

What about RGIII's accuracy aren't you sure about?

I agree Vick is a gifted athlete, but what good does his talent do if he is on the bench every other game for half the season for breaking something from all the vicious hits he takes?
