Put down the crack pipe and take off the rose colored glasses, homie. They were saying the EXACT SAME THING about Cam "The Scam" Newton last season, and look at him now. The problem with rookie quarterbacks is that there isn't enough pro film on them for defensive coordinators to gameplan against. It's more or less hit or miss. RGIII is a great athlete and has the smarts to make it (I actually feel bad putting him in the same category as Fig Newton since he's a fucking moron). But during RGIII's sophomore campaign, things will change and he'll be forced to be more cerebral. He won't be able to rely on his legs as much as he does this year and if he continues to take the hits he's taken this season, he'll have a VERY SHORT career.
With that said, he's definitely in the top 3 for offensive rookies this season with Luck and the Tampa RB hahahahahaha. But in the long run, Luck will be more likely to have a HOF career than RGIII. However, if he keeps up doing what he's doing, he'll be out of the league in 2-3 years tops.
Watch next season when they try to turn him into a pocket passer and how far from grace he'll fall. I've seen it happen time and time again. He's a good kid, smart, and very athletic. But his undoing will be his coaches trying to protect him rather than letting him go out and play his game. Which at this point is backyard ball.
