Randall Cuningham, Vince Young, McNabb, Dog Boy, Tebow, etc, etc. I still maintain that if you are running options and bootlegs and such nonsense for your QB, you are not going to succeed in the long run.

The Steelers found a way to beat the Giants despite the horrible penalty calls that went the way of the Giants. :P

He's not your average running QB, he's accurate already and will only get better. He's Steve Young with world class speed. (It's been a few years but he has clocked times that would've qualified him for this year's Olympic 'A' standard and place him 5th in the trials.

 

RG3 has the potential to be the QB that we have never seen before.

Most rookie QB's come into a system that existed before they got there and are expected to adapt to it.  The Redskins designed an offense to fit the talents of RG3.  The Bronco's knew Tebow couldn't throw so they used a lot of option runs.  RG3 isn't running option runs, the entire offense is designed to confuse defensive players to give the offense that extra second they need. 

 

Last night they showed a series of plays on how this offense makes it very difficult for the defensive end because he has to look for them to run a counter with Morris, RG3 could keep it and throw a quick pass or RG3 can run or roll out and then pass.  Defensive coordinators will try to adjust by using different formations, but it won't be easy.  The way to stop it is to have fast linebackers who can react to the play quickly. 

 

The 49ers have borrowed some of the Redskins plays the last few weeks but their QB isn't close to being RG3.

They've done a good job making an offense that works right now but he will have to develop his ability to stay in the pocket and make good decisions. The Redskins are lucky because of him being such an amazing athlete they probably have a few more years to get him groomed unlike other QBs like him. I'd also be concerned about injury one torn ACL or MCL and his speed may not be there anymore but all in all it looks like they have a QB for years.

Seriously though, you may be right, but IT SEEMS like he also has the pocket passer skills that Steve Young and Warren Moon had, but that Vick, Young, and Perhaps Newton seem to lack.
