Like I said, this board was full of ass clowns that wanted to draft Clausen in the first round last year. Every year there are sheep here who want to draft a QB just for the sake of it. You can talk all you want about RGIII, but the guy has the knock of being a running QB coming out of a spread offense against him. These two things do not bode well for becoming a franchise quarterback. Now you can insult me all you want, but it doesn't change the god damn facts. |

As great of a runner RGIII is, he's equally as great of a thrower. I would say he's even better at throwing than he is running. He's got a damn fine arm that will serve him well in the pros. That's not the same ****ing thing as drafting Tim Tebow or Eric Crouch, dipshit. |

Let's get philosophical for a moment.
Why do QBs sometimes run? What makes a QB a "running QB"? Can you describe what Plato would call the QBness of a QB? All QBs run, after all. The fact that we have these two terms seems to be that there's a certain amount of "run" you can add to the QB formula to turn him into a "running QB"? An option QB is clearly a running QB, right? Marques Haggans is a running QB. Michael Bishop is a running QB. Eric Crouch is a running QB. Some people called Donovan McNabb a running QB when he entered the league. Is he a running QB? Did he stop being a running QB? When? Is RGIII doomed to be a running QB for the rest of his life if he ran too much in his youth? Is being a running QB like having diabetes? |

He's had 3 seasons in his entire career where he went over 400 yards rushing. You're confusing rushing QBs with QBs who extend plays with their mobility ala McNabb and Roethlisberger. |

Just because he didn't do very well in Carolina, doesn't mean the same result would have happened here under completely different circumstances. Would he have succeeded in KC?...I doubt it, but nobody really knows because we had a completely unique situation here that the kid might have done well in. Who knows? |

That's a little foolish, don't ya think? His skill set and mental makeup add up to a quarterback with limitless potential at the next level. There isn't a single tool you look for in franchise quarterbacks that this kid doesn't possess. Not one. But, he is black. So, yeah...he is just another Vick. Cmon, man. |

Go look at the last 10 hall of fame quarterbacks rookie years and get back to me.
And don't go off in some tangent on how I called Jimmy Clausen a HOF quarterback, I didn't. I'm just saying that almost every single one of them looked terrible their rookie year. Peyton lead the whole league in picks Aikman went 0-11 and looked terrible only completing 53% and threw twice as many picks as TDs Elway Completed 47% and threw twice as many picks as TDs I do agree though, Clausen didnt show much to be excited about as a rookie and mist likely would have never amounted to anything and Berry was absolutely the better pick. No question. |

If this thread is one giant troll job by you, then good for you. You got me.
If you're actually serious about the shit you've been writing about RGIII and running QBs, then you're a goddamn reerun, and Jesus hates you. |
