I have to agree with him. Good article.

The only thing I thought he had wrong, is his #2 point for Luck. He said Indy's defense " is truly bad", which it may be, but ours has been worse for much of the season, and yet Griffin has had us in position to win at least 2 other games (NYG and Rams). Seemed a weak argument to me.

They are truly bad but I thought the same way as you when he didn't mention our defense. I mean, what are we, chopped liver? YES!!! How can you talk about a bad defense and not mention ours? I think he came to the right conclusion though.

Great thread. Griffin is number one in my book but, unbiasedly I'd say...

1 Brady
2 Peyton
3 Brees
3 Rodgers
5 RG3

Taking in consideration each QB's OL, WRs/TEs talent, QB rating and clutch ability. If all things were equal, this is how I see it.

My friend asked me this question the other day "5 years from now who will be the top 3 QBs in the NFL?"

I said

1) RG3
2) Luck
3) Matt Ryan

Who would your 3 be (keep in mind some of the QBs in college could be counted)

I love him with every fiber of my being so I couldn't possibly objectively rank him, nor would I want to. Number one in my friggin' heart, that's for sure. Could not be more proud of that guy.

RG3 is certainly the best quarterback in the NFC. Romo and Vick didn't play well this year and Eli Manning is inconsistent. RG3 towers above them all.

I just saw this article in Bill Simmons' Grantland site. It is from October but I thought it was hilarious what they said about the Redskins and RG3. I'm so glad we have such an excitingly good player:

"1. Redskins

… Robert Griffin III, who is the most exhilarating football experience since Michael Vick emerged on the scene in 2002. And RG3's numbers blow Vick's away. Keep in mind that Griffin leads the league in completion percentage (70.8 percent) and yards per attempt (8.5) with Leonard Hankerson and Josh Morgan as his starting wideouts, and that doesn't even consider his value as a runner. You know how Simmons has the Tyson Zone for celebrities who are so crazy he'd believe anything he heard about them? I feel the same way about Griffin on the field. If I'm watching the Red Zone channel on Sunday and I see the "Coming up … " image with a Redskins graphic, my mind races. Did RG3 just kick a 65-yard field goal? By accident? Did he go back in time and relieve Drew Storen? Is he hosting the Red Zone Channel right now? You could tell me RG3 accomplished just about anything during a game on Sunday and I'll believe it. These days, nobody in football is more watchable or entertaining."

It really makes me excited to think about the next 10+ years with RG3. It should be a real blast to watch his career play out. I'll be shocked if we don't win at least one SB with him.

One Super Bowl? Once Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan has thoroughly built this Redskins team, we will be the first team in NFL history to 3peat with RG3!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I'm reigning in my enthusiasm until after the first SB this year.

I constantly have to remind myself that he has played 12 NFL games. Think about that, 12 games. He is still learning to read NFL defenses on the fly, still learning how his receivers are going to adjust while running routes, still figuring out some of the nuances of the position and still working on the finer points (consistent footwork, manipulating the safety with his eyes) of the QB position. His ceiling is incredible.
