Why not? He is clearly very talented. For all the people saying that he just dinks and dunks, have you all realized that he has some incredible downfield numbers? He has a stud running back and a decent O line. The defense is coming along and if they improve the D in the draft and/or FA and acquire some more weapons for RG3, they should be real contenders.
RGIII is the real deal, without a doubt, but the Skins are not going to improve a whole lot through the draft in the next couple seasons because of the treasure trove of picks they gave up to get their guy. I'm not saying that he will never win a Superbowl. With a rookie year like he is having, it seems as though the sky is the limit. I also have no idea what their cap situation is, but they have a couple of young play-makers in Griffin and Morris... over-payed for Garcon, though IMO. I wouldn't be shocked if the Skins became perennial contenders in the NFC East for the foreseeable future, but, honestly... I would look at the team that grabbed up the Skins picks, the Rams.. They already have a ton of young guys with potential and they have high draft picks to spare.... Mark my words.. Rams will get good in a hurry and Luck's first SB win will come against Sam "I am developing too slowly" Bradford.

Edit: since we are talking about feelings..... that's what my gut says

because he sucks, thats why. Cousins is the better quarterback. sooner they realize this, the better they will be. Very talented, so was mcnabb, vick, and all those before them. Doug williams had a good 3rd quarter in one game! Russel wilson will be a much better quarterback.

You should tell the rest of the defenses that Griffin has faced that he sucks. I'm sure they would disagree.

Please stop. Just stop. The kid is amazing. It is obvious that he has the desire to learn and develop his game as he has gotten better through out the season. His ceiling is very high. We'll have to wait to see what happens over the long haul, but he has been great this year. Don't hate on him out of homerism for the Colts. That's as annoying as all of the Pats fans that come in here to gloat about how good Tom Brady is ;-) Surely we are better than they are.

we're playing the broncos this year specifically in the divisional round of the playoffs. I can see us beating the texans on sunday and broncos and patriots winning pushing the texans to the 3rd seed. ravens are not an easy foe so dont think im overseeing them, but they are beatable. this season is basically a script from hollywood. young buck vs old stallion. its inevitable. my question is whats gonna be the reaction of this game if it does happen? would you be ok if peyton beats us?

 

Well, I don't think Peyton can beat the Colts.  But, I do think that the Broncos can.  :sorry: , that was just me being ornery.   

 

To properly answer your question, I am first and foremost a Colt's fan.  But, I still love Peyton.  So, I would be cheering for the Colts and would be sad if they lost.

 

But, I would then be cheering for the Broncos to go all the way and add another ring to Peyton's hand. 

 

So, yes, I would be OK . . . unless those Patriots end up winning the SB.  Then, I would be in a serious funk.  :argh:

You are amazed by RGIII? Really? Amazing? He's good yes, but amazing? What if something really happens to you? What if you are walking down the street and a person in front of you spontaneously bursts into a pile of money? What are you going to call that? You used "amazing" on a football player. (I proudly stole that from Louis C.K.) :D

Yes. For a rookie, he is amazing. He has surpassed my expectations far more than Luck has. Luck was supposed to be this good coming in according everyone on this board and every reporter on ESPN. RG3 was supposed to have the all the makings of an NFL QB as well, but no one predicted that he would outperform Luck. And yes, he has outperformed Luck so far. I have been denying it and fighting it all season, saying his coaches are babying him and our coaches are setting Luck up for disaster, but I can't fight it any longer. I still believe that Luck will end up being the best of his generation, but RG3 has bested him this year.

i don't want to see the team that eliminates us win it all,  never have.

I've always taken completely the opposite position in every sport. I root for the team that beat us to win it all (well, unless I happen to hate them).

 

To me the worst years are like in 2002 when the Colts were humiliated by the Jets, who were then soundly beaten by Oakland, who were later soundly beaten by the Bucs. By the time it's all over you feel just buried. Hard to escape the conclusion that your team is a LONG way from the Championship.

 

In contrast I took pride in the fact that the Colts were knocked out by the eventual SB champion for three years in a row before finally winning it. Yeah, BB knew how to thwart Peyton, and the Steelers game (and the circumstances surrounding it) were frustrating and painful - but the team was "right there" on the cusp, not buried in mediocrity.

You are doing well so far.

But, you are also the one who called us going 10-6 before the season started so why should I doubt you? :)

      I know it’s expensive to maintain but I just wish that they went with real all natural grass.

      Colts select Adonai Mitchell WR Texas (Merged)

      By smittywerb · Posted

      I think that’s because he fell so far.  He went from being a 1st rounder to being selected in the 2nd round.  Many rankings had him as either the 4th or 5th best WR behind the big 3.  And big part of it is what was being said about him.  Who knows if what was said is true or not.   i think since we chose him we’re ok lol.  It’s him vs the league, and I honestly love it.  Means he’s motivated.  That hunger should translate well into hustle and grind.  And if he doesn’t start right away, I hope he takes it as a sign to get better,  not a sign of slight.

      Chris Ballard on Pat McAfee Show about the draft

      In reality all GMs do this. It's just how it is when working with the press. The last thing they want to do is paint their shiny new prospect in the negative. So it's easy to sit there on the mic and say "we really like this guy, we're really lucky he fell to us". And psychologically? It usually works.

      This might be the second most shocking post on this entire forum. The more shocking thing is that both Doug and Moosejaw appear to be content with the draft this year!!!

      Chris Ballard on Pat McAfee Show about the draft

      By Superman · Posted

      You have interesting positions, and like chad said, it was pretty obvious where you were going with this one.    There's a possibility that the Colts had a good read on what everyone from #46 to #52 was looking to do. Maybe they knew that none of those teams liked AD, so they were more willing to roll the dice. But another team could have moved up in front of them. So most likely, they were okay with missing out on him if that's the way it went.    In reality, the Colts liked a ton of prospects in this draft. They only got nine of them. Before they picked AD, they probably watched a dozen guys that they were hoping for in the second round get picked by other teams. So the 'we got lucky' thing kind of misses me. If Cooper DeJean or Jackson Powers-Johnson lasted until the Colts pick, they probably would have said 'we got lucky,' just like they did about AD. It's just the way the draft works. You can't get everybody you like. If they had stayed at #46 and taken AD, I might take the 'we got lucky' comment more seriously.
