The Skins just officially drafted Robert Griffin III. Analysts are saying he's a better take then Andrew Luck who was drafted first by the Colts.
Shanahan as coach, and now Griffin as QB makes for an interesting season.
Just excited because it's been a long time since the Skins have had a good QB.

We also signed another rookie QB later in the draft. Don't know his name or what that's about, unless Grossman is heading out.

Or just some healthy competition.

A lot of pressure on Griffin. He's not going to be great out of the gate, if ever. Takes time. Took Peyton Manning six years I think to get a playoff win. Hate when fans turn after a season, but the Skins fans have to at the top of the most fickle.

Peyton had other issues other than his skills for the reasons why he didn't always do well in the playoffs. Sort of like LeBron James. A mental block of some sort. Might not effect this kid.
Eli went into the playoffs seemingly with a chip on his shoulder and backed it all up. Just depends of the players, you know?

I get that. I just hear Skins fans now saying they're in the playoffs, and I think that's an awful lot ask from a rookie. And if they don't get there this season, these same fans will be saying how bad they messed up in the draft and they never should have taken him.
Hate that about Skins fans.
