Luck definitely has a case to be made as well though, and his team is better. Plus, Luck has helped guide his team through losing their HC to having treatments on his cancer this year.
Gonna be tough to be that, but, if anyone can do it, It's RG3 !
This Giants game is so huge and for once I like our chances as do a lot of experst and it's all because of RG3.
If we make the Playoffs, I think Griffin is definitely a Lock for rookie of the year. | Turtle your point about Luck is valid, but he hasn't played against the caliber of teams that RG III has faced in his rookie season. The Colts have the better record, but everyone knows the Redskins had a much tougher schedule this year. I beg the differ that Luck's team is better. I don't think the Colts could beat us in a game right now. With that said how can anyone put Luck in the same sentence as RG III for ROY when their stats don't even compare and Luck played against weaker competition. There's still five (5) games to go in this season so I'm not awarding RG III the ROY just yet, but if the season ended today he would be the winner going away. |
If it were a pure stats game, then yes, Griffin has it going away.
However, there are the intangibles of leading a team from a 2-14 year into a likely playoff berth. Of overcoming the head coach being diagnosed with leukemia. Of dealing with a team that is starting a complete rebuild (as opposed to mid-run like Griffin).
Yes, the Colts schedule is weak. On paper, their opponents' combined record is 82-94-0, but that is significantly buttressed by Houston's 10-1 record; it is 62-92-0 without the Texans, or 0.403. No, they haven't played the Texans yet as they play Houston twice in the last three weeks.
Still, you have to win the games.
This one is going to go down to the wire. |
