Talk about the Washington Football Team here. Do you bleed burgundy and gold?

no worries Bob - I'd even add Tom Brady ...

THAT RG3 is even in the conversation (and he should be) is testimony to how valuable he is to our franchise
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

I agree. It's amazing what RGIII has done and that he is even mentioned in the same breath as these guys is enough for me.

Peyton, coming back from a year off with a new team and looking like he hasn't missed a beat is a great story

Adrian Peterson; recovering from completely blowing out his knee barely a year ago and on the verge of setting the new single-season rushing record.

Tom Brady? Meh, he is still playing at a high level, but nothing special (for Brady anyway) I actually place him behind RGIII

RGIII deserves ROY, no question. Taking that 3-6 team on his shoulders and willing them to win the division, that should end the debate.

btw They should just hold off on ROY voting. Let's match up Colts v. Redskins in the Super Bowl and settle it on the field. :)

I saw Seattle yesterday. They are good. Their QB remnds me of a smaller version of Robert Griffin, not as fast, but with a superb receiver. No slouch.

But Robert Griffin is something beyond. He is in the Sammy Baugh / Sonny Jurgensen League...above the NFL-level.

I've watched the NFL since about 1956, and there has been no QB like Griffin. Throws like Sonny (not the equal of Sonny, and nobody has neen) and runs like Charley Taylor.

That takes us back fifty years, and I think Griffin is that once-in-50-years kind of player.

ROTY? Nobody else is close to Griffin...except, maybe, Alfred Morris.
