Only third player EVER since 1960 to have 4 TD passes and 80+ rushing yards (the other 2 were Eagles, funny enough; Cunningham and Vick) and the FIRST with a perfect QB rating.

And first ROOKIE since 1960 to have a perfect passer rating and 4+ TDs.

EDIT: Saw this elewhere: @redskins @RGIII is 1st in @nfl history w/ 3 60+ pass TDs & 60+ rush TD in season

...and about that trade with the Rams...both the "Ramskins" trade and the trade for the chance to draft RG3 or Luck? Good moves!!

With Luck having an awful game against NE, RGIII should have a great shot at another ROW award, which is one step closer to ROY.

#DidYouKnow: @Redskins QB @RGIII is just the 3rd rookie in NFL history w/2,000+ passing yds & 500+ rushing yds.

Other 2: Cam and V. Young.

He's also only the second QB to have a perfect game his rookie year.

(Drew Bledsoe was first in '93)

Do you mean perfect passer rating? It can't be considered a perfect
game with one incompletion. Can it?

He and Morris both hold rookie records for a rookie QB and a rookie RB to both have 500+ rushing yards on the same team.

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Mon Nov 19, 2012 3:15 pm

Also on pace (fingers crossed) to become the first EVER QB to average 200+ passing yards and 60 rushing yards per game.

2 other Redskins on that list...Sammy Baugh in 1949, and Sonny Jurgensen in 1965...RG3 keeping pretty good company there.

RG3 is now the first rookie to ever throw for 4 TDs in back-to-back games. Joins Tarkenton (3) as the only rooks with multiple 4-td games.

The kid is a stud, but he takes to many huge hits. I am afraid he will have his career shortened because of it.

That seems like good company to be in, IMO.

In the past two games RGIII has only nine incomplete passes but eight TDs.

Reminiscent of his Senior year isn't it?!

:twisted:

As a pro! Awesome!

HAIL yeeeeah! Qb rating was legit this week too. Might finish the season as the best for a room I'm thinking.

he's a tough kid. qbs get hit. it's not like he's some little frail kid. he's a beast and he'll be fine...

mastdark81 · Post by **mastdark81** » Fri Nov 23, 2012 9:49 am

gotta love it...he passes some record each week. No way he's not rookie of the year.

SkinsJock · Post by **SkinsJock** » Fri Nov 23, 2012 10:34 am

He keeps this up and he's NFL rookie of the year ... AND NFL MVP - no doubt

cannot wait to see this franchise playing next season with all the pieces in place

THIS kid is incredibly special - maybe the guys that wondered if we gave up too much can now admit how far off the mark they were

The FO made one of the best trades in NFL history

AND

the trade with the Rams was ALSO a great value for their franchise as well - that's a great thing

Not according to some Rams fans. I've noted a couple of them that are kicking themselves because their team didn't draft RG3 and getting rid of Bradford. :lol:

And of course, most of them are rooting for our guys to lose so they can have a higher draft pick.

More randomness

Tony Romo has been in the league for seven years and yesterday, on his 163rd touchdown pass he completed his longest of 85-yards

RGIII's 1st touchdown pass was 88-yards

Is it bad that I was annoyed the Garçon's TD was 59-yards instead of 60?

RGIII is the only rookie to have completed four 60+ yard touchdown passes and rushed for one 60+ yard TD. one more yard would have made that five.

Of RGIII's 16 TD passes this season ten of them have been from outside the Redzone

Getting all the pieces might be a tall order for next year. I agree though that we can fill some more holes. I am thinking 3 more years if we can keep from losing key players from injury. I am loving this win though. This made my year

Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III had another impressive outing Thursday, and continues to rewrite the record books.
With his 20-for-28, 311-yard, four-touchdown performance in the 38-31 victory over Dallas, Griffin broke Washington’s single-season team records for passing yards by a rookie and passing touchdowns by a rookie.

Until Thursday, Norm Snead held the single-season yards record (2,337 in 1961) and Eddie LeBaron the touchdown passing mark (14 in 1952).
For the season, Griffin III is now 206 for 305 (67.5 percent) for 2,504 yards with 16 touchdowns.

Griffin became the first player in Redskins history to pass for four touchdowns in consecutive games. He is only the second NFL player this season with four touchdown passes in consecutive weeks.

Griffin also is the first player in NFL history to have four 60-yard passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown of at least 60 yards (76 yard touchdown run vs. Minnesota) in a season.

Griffin is the first rookie since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger to have multiple games with four or more passing touchdowns in a season.

Griffin’s four passing touchdowns in a Thanksgiving game are also the most by a Redskins quarterback, surpassing the three Thanksgiving touchdowns thrown by Jim Ninowski on Nov. 28, 1968 and Danny Wuerffel on Nov. 28, 2002.

Griffin’s 311 yards are also the most by a Redskins quarterback on Thanksgiving, surpassing Ninowski’s 280.

With five games remaining, Griffin is on pace to throw for 3,642 yards with 23 touchdowns and just six interceptions, and 934 rushing yards.
