Here are some quotes from draft reports on RG3 before the draft so i can end this discussion once and for all Walter Football Strengths: Great arm strength Quick release Accurate thrower Smart; protects the football Good field vision Extremely mobile with scrambling ability Very intelligent Proven leader; passion for the game Winner at collegiate level Experienced 3-year starter Clutch performer who plays at his best in crunch time Good teammate without an ego Plays with swagger Opens up mismatches for teammates with dual-threat nature High-character individual Bleacher Report "He does a fair amount of pre-snap recognition based on Baylor game film study. Griffin, unlike many college quarterbacks, does not take direction from the sideline and is tasked with reading the defense." "Griffin doesn't have the experience of Andrew Luck at reading a defense and making checks at the line, but he does have a very high IQ and a high football IQ, two things that will quickly enable him to learn and adapt at the NFL level." NFL Draft Geek "High football IQ, reads defenses well. Makes good decisions with the ball" "Has all the intangibles. Intelligence, Leadership, Work Ethic, Composure"
that's actually what you're saying about mariota and that was exactly what was said about RG3 stop acting like you're better than everyone
I don't give a shit about what anyone said then. Today folk realize they were WRONG. You can end the discussion once and for all by admitting you are wrong. _
Let me guess, you like his "athleticism", right? Is Bridgewater as intelligent as Mariota? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
you're clueless. my point is how are you going to say mariota is light years smarter than RG3 when people praised RG3 for being smart and he wasn't. what's to stop that from happening to mariota? don't make this bullshit assumption that you know mariota is smarter just because he is a nice individual
Who saying anything about me? I'm not the only one saying RG3 is dumb, that's from folks down in DC. I'm glad you like RG3. I prefer a smart QB. That doesn't make me better than anyone else, it's just what I prefer. Preferring a dumb QB may in fact make you better than me. I have my doubts. _
Teddy Bridgewater is 1/2 the athlete Mariota is. There is no young QB better in the 5 seconds before the snap and 3 seconds after the snap than Teddy. He has a BRILLIANT football mind. Oh, GFY in trying to call me racist asshole. _
I'm clueless? Rg3 is a dope. Mariota is a rocket scientist by comparison. Has nothing to do with being "nice". It's ok that you prefer a dumb QB. _
Apparently, I've hit a nerve here. Look deep inside yourself. It's only when you confront the seething racism in your heart that you will be freed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Yes, responding to idiot trolls bring out my worst. Oh, I want Winston as my second choice at 6. Damn I wish he was black. _
That's it. Feel the hatred. Let it rise to the surface of your racist soul. Then skim it off an throw it away. Then shall thee walk in the light. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
i don't, but my argument is much farther proven by the fact that he ran a spread offense in oregon where not ONCE did he call a play from the huddle (said it himself) and had a lot of easy 1 look reads. sure, he ran it to perfection, but you want to know who else ran it else to perfection? the two guys you hate... RG3 and geno smith
I don't hate RG3 and my animus for Geno came when he was in that mirage of fake production at WVU. I think both of them have physical talents but I think both of them are severely lacking in the football IQ department. That's from watching Geno a LOT in college (and confirmed in his bed shitting in the NFL) and RG3 in the pros. If you think either one of them has MORE football IQ than Mariota than we, sir, have been watching different players. It's ok to differ on players. I think Geno and RG3 are dumb and Mariota is smart. I don't need draft guides or blogs or CBSSportsline articles to bolster my opinion. I've formed my own opinions. It's ok for you to take your draft guides as gospel. _
i don't take them as gospel, i just wanted to let you know that people are saying the exact same things you are saying about Mariota with RG3 so don't say for a fact that "RG3 is dumb as bricks" and mariota is infinitely smarter because you just do not know that i've watched taped on both of them and mariota gave me no reason to believe he is more intelligent and NEITHER HAVE YOU
Yes I have. And I don't need cap locks to make my point. Besides, folks in DC are saying the same thing about RG3 that the rest of you are all now realizing about Geno. Cannot read defenses, cannot change plays at the line, easily fooled. Not sure he'll ever be able to do so. _
