I know we're talking a decade but I'll bet you the Caps, Nats and Skins don't win 3 titles over the next decade

skins alone will win multiple

No they won't. They have no high picks for the next few seasons and no cap space to sign fre agents. What you see is what you get for the next few seasons. Plus Danny is still their owner. You're talking about a team that has 3 winning seasons since he's taken over and one playoff win. Don't go dusting your Doug Williams jersey off just yet.

You need to get out of Hamsterdam

Griffen is going to go the way of Vick with the injuries.  did you see the package ESPN put together of all the hits he's taken so far.  holy shtein he gets smoked weekly.

i think once he gets an offensive line they wont run that option anymore...at least i would hope not...their line is atrocious and altho its been risky i think shanahan deserves a ton of credit for coming up with a system that allows them to win with such a bad OL...i just cant imagine it continuing long term

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Yes, just like every other athletic, mobile QB... His team will suddenly protect him better and stop using him as much as a runner! GUARANTEED HEALTH AND CHAMPIONSHIPS WILL ABOUND!

Go Phillies.

the difference is hes a ridiculous passer as well....he just doesnt have a line to give him time...calling him a mobile qb is short changin him big time...he can be randall or he can be luck....its up to him...right now the roster neccessitates that he be more randall

ultimately who he will be is steve young

That's pretty much what I have in mind for him, although I was thinking about a current QB and likened him an Aaron Rodgers type.  I think that he'll always be mobile and can extend plays with his legs but once he gets fully acclimated to the league, he'll be like 90% pass and 10% run.....but those runs will be killer.

Yet Young only won 1 Superbowl and that team was stacked

[ice grillin you]

he started for like seven years for them...if he plays 10-15 he definitely wins two

rgIII will get 15 years in a watered down nfl...there aint no jimmy johnson cowyboys or brett farve packer teams to go thru anymore

rgIII got a couple superbowls in him

[SunMo]

he has Bill O'Brien's Eagles to contend with though
