21MadFan Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 RGIII’s jersey, cleats headed to Hall of Fame The jersey and cleats worn Monday night by Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III are headed to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Griffin set the NFL’s single-season rushing record for a rookie quarterback during the Redskins’ 17-16 triumph over the New York Giants. “Everyone wants to be in the Hall of Fame,” Griffin said. A Hall of Fame representative made the announcement during Griffin’s weekly news conference at Redskins Park. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2012/12/05/rgiiis-jersey-cleats-headed-to-hall-of-fame/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeefJerky Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Amazing that only 12 games into his career RGIII has something in the HOF. The man is truly a very gifted athlete. I'm so proud that he is a Washington Redskin. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Wow quite an accomplishment, can't wait to see if he breaks any other rookie records, like most yards ran in a SuperBowl. One can hope right, anyway great job RGIII! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 That's pretty sweet. It's just amazing watching him. Seriously, after the Minnesota game, everyone was talking about how even when he's in 3rd gear he's still faster than everyone on the field. It's great to see he's already getting solid recognition. The nice thing is, if he plays to his potential, by the time he's done they're going to have a lot more than just his cleats in there. Heck, they might just need to freeze him in carbonite and display him to save space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mentallyinept Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 That's ****ing awesome I was going to say something myself, but I'll just co-sign this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Say, don't we already own that record? Yes good call, but wouldn't it be awesome if RGIII beat it? 204 yards is a lot but he can do it/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandymac27 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 That's ****ing awesome Yes indeed! Not much else to say other than I love our QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticksboi05 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Yes good call, but wouldn't it be awesome if RGIII beat it? 204 yards is a lot but he can do it/. He cannot and I hope it would never come to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFLSkins Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 He cannot and I hope it would never come to that. Yeah and he cannot beat three NFCE teams in a row either, cannot is not in his vocabulary. I also hope it would not come to that, but whatever it takes to win. Can you imagine teams being tired of RGIII beating them on deep passes only to give up long runs by him and a back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 So, did they send Cam's to the HOF last year? If so, was it removed and incinerated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke27on Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 So, did they send Cam's to the HOF last year? If so, was it removed and incinerated? hahahah! I was wondering the same thing. What do they do with the prior things that were in there. What's amazing is there is still 4 games to play. Really awesome! Random question, has a rookie qb ever won the super bowl? Not that I'm saying we are necessarily even getting there or the playoffs. But I'm curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#BgMase76# Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Just read the article on B/R. The kids already making history. Hopefully he'll tack on a lot more maybe even hit that 1,000 yd mark. We'll see but its a background issue. Playoffs are our goal. Watching NFLN, their beat reporter is politicing for Luck as ROTY. He made sure to make note that RGIII is dinking and donking SS opposed to Luck being asked to throw bombs all game. I don't remember anyone criticising Montana or Young when they ran a WCO. Amazing how the hypocrites lay in wait like crocs on the Nile. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedBNG Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Warner did not win any Super Bowl his first year as a pro (rookie). He was on the Packers practice squad in '94 (won't count that), but he took over for Trent Green as the Rams starting QB in '99 when Green tore his ACL in preseason. The only rookie QB to ever win an NFL championship his first year is Sammy Baugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zCommander Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Since Luck is so much better than RG3 are they putting any of his stuff in the HOF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I hope Timmy Smith's cleats are in The Hall, along with a "where are they now" video tribute. Congrats to young Griffin, and our OL for getting him there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 So, did they send Cam's to the HOF last year? If so, was it removed and incinerated? I dunno about you guys, but the thought of this made RG3's honors even better for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
