It's great to hear the best coach we ever had is excited to watch those young guys ball out!  He is thrilled about our future.
| Quote: | "One thing about pro sports is you don’t luck into it—you have to be really good," Gibbs said. "I think we’re building something good here right now with [head coach] Mike [Shanahan], [general manager] Bruce [Allen] and [Redskins owner] Dan [Snyder]."
Like most around the NFL, Gibbs has taken notice of Redskins rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III, congratulating the organization for drafting and developing an instant star.
“It goes back to the very first game against the Saints," Gibbs said. "What impressed me about that game was the even-temper he seemed to have; nothing seemed to shake him up. He was very relaxed and played a great ball game.
"What I saw there was a lot of poise in a young guy. To me, I think that’s what he’s carried all of the way through: 'I belong up here, I should be playing up here, and I feel right at home playing here.'"
"He’s such a great athlete," Gibbs said of Griffin III. "He’s got everybody excited and the coaches should be congratulated. They’re using him in a totally different style offense. As a consequence, you’re seeing defenses having a tough time with that right now." |

Here's a crazy stat:
The Redskins have played 13 games in the first 14 weeks of the season. Between Robert Griffin III and Alfred Morris, they have won Pepsi Rookie of the Week Eight times.
8/13 - Only 5 times the Redskins have played they have not won the award.
