Man, freak them.
freak BSPN. freak all these media jerks that think they know it all.
The only thing RG3 has is a fun name to say. Oh and he's a running QB which for some reason gives these media fellas massive hardons.
Not sure if you have watched much tape on RGIII, but he is most definitely NOT a run first QB. I watched quite a bit of him at Baylor, and all of his preseason/first game snaps and he only tucks and runs when it makes sense. On one particular play I watched him purposefully hold the ball even after the Saints had lost contain...then calmly wait for his receiver to break open for an easy 20+ gainer. Absolutely a thing of beauty. I hiave a feeling we will see more of that this w/e if the Rams D doesn't keep him in the pocket. He looks to be every bit as poised and accurate as Stafford, but with the ability to beat you with his legs.....if he HAS to.
Maybe I shoulda been more in depth. I'm not sayin RG3 is a RB playing QB. He has talent. My point is on the freakin media. Why all the hype over him? Cuz he's a running QB.
RG3, Newton, Vince Young, Vick...what do all of them have in common?
Aren't they all Heisman winners except for Vick, who was 3rd place? They all have/had endorsements, are in a # of commercials, they are hyped to no end.
Bradford is a Heisman winner. Where was his endorsements/commercials his rookie year or after?
He's on the Rams? Newton is in Carolina. Not exactly the biggest market or best team.
I guess what I'm sayin is, I'm freakin sick of the media overhyping these types of QBs. What sucks the worse is these guys are really good players and are entertaining to watch...but praising a guy especially over 1 game and sayin shyte like "the Rams made a mistake" is freakin stupid and annoying, and makes me not want to see Griffin or Newton.
