That team will be a very good team this season when they get all the players back on D and have a creative draft.
RGIII would be an extremely good thing for this franchise. That stadium will be jam packed to capacity rather than announching a cell out and having 70K people there. Plus the kid can play and will bring a level of excitement at QB this franchise has never seen.

I'm w/ya here. Expectations will be high for PM or RGIII. The difference to me is that RGIII will have lesser expectations from the knowledgable fans & media since he's a rookie & obviously he's got more years ahead of him. I think the risk w/PM is greater for Shanny & Snyder than it is w/RGIII. PM won't cost draft picks, but him coming to DC will require very signficant changes IMO.
Of course, both PM & RGIII together aren't out of the question, just seems doubtful that much would be spent on the qb position this year. RGIII really seems like a guy that has the maturity to handle being the team savior, a la Cam.
