I am with you. I have watched a couple of his games, and thought he was just doing an OK job as a QB. There is no denying his athleticism whick is where I think he stands out from the others, but his passing skills are not not any more impressive than the rest of the rookie QBs; minus Tannehill who I have not seen play yet. Plus he has veteran receivers as does Luck (Wayne is still an animal).
In the last two games, I know for a fact that three TDs were not due to RG3 showing great skill. Two bombs were to wide open receivers and were not deadly accurate, and the other was thrown into double coverage and the receiver miraculously caught the ball while the two defenders knocked each other down. He gets a lot of simple throws and uses his athleticism. If I was a Skins fan, I would be worried that he is going to get injured from all of the contact he takes. You don't want your QB to taking shots week-in-week-out like he does. I don't think anyone should get ahead of themself and start judging any of these guys until midseason next year.
I think rg3 is a lot more accurate then you think. A lot of those wide open passes dropped right into the receivers hands. However, that being said, I DO agree with one year not being enough to judge. I want to see a more pro style offense and right now our offense is 65-70% spread/pistol/college style and 30-35% pro. Until we are 100% pro style ill be holding expectations, but he really is playing well and I am pleased beyond my wildest imagination so far because he is a rookie and for a rookie, he's been very good, if not great.
