    Robert Griffin III
    RGIII>Luck>Wilson.... I know it's not Wilson's fault but he's on a good ass squad and the teams RGIII and Luck are on weren't ? w/out them. As for the RGIII vs. Luck debate, efficiency=key so RGIII gets the nod. If Luck didn't throw so many got damn picks maybe he wouldn't half to orchestrate so many comebacks and throw 50 times a ? game... Luck is 29th in passer rating and 5th in attemps, RGIII is 2nd in passer rating and 25th in attempts...

    Your reaching with those irrelevant stats.

    Luck has the most passing yards for a rookie in nfl history, he has more tds, 7 game winning drives and more overall wins.

    Rg3 has no chance. He got hurt and his back up won them two games..their rookie running back might become the teams all time rushing leader, he deserves some consideration for r.o.y

    Andrew Luck
    Wilson almost got his spot taken by Matt Flynn.......

    RG3 and the Skins went 3-6 and effectively had Mike Shannon on suicide watch............

    Luck follows a great quarterback for a team that went 2 - 14 without their great leader.....

    All three look like nice QB's

    Redskins D is better than the Colts D....speaking of colts they picked first in the draft last year right? Switched to a 3-4 and got a new coach then that coach got sick so in comes the interim they should not be this good

    7 comeback wins means he knows what to do win its time and also ,who the ? is the starting running back for the colts????

    Andrew luck and his hurt below average O line

    PRESS RELEASE

    For Immediate Release
    January 14, 2013

    ROBERT GRIFFIN III NAMED PRO FOOTBALL WEEKLY/PFWA
    ROOKIE OF THE YEAR

    LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. – Pro Football Weekly, along with the Pro Football Writers of America, announced that Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III has been named their overall Rookie of the Year and Offensive Rookie of the Year.

    Griffin III, 22, finished the season having completed 258-of-393 passes (65.6 percent) for 3,200 passing yards, 20 touchdowns, only five interceptions and a passer rating of 102.4, all team rookie records. In addition, he rushed 120 times for 815 yards with seven rushing touchdowns in 2012, all three of which are team records for a quarterback. His 102.4 passer rating, 1.3 interception rate and 815 rushing yards are all NFL records for rookie quarterbacks. Griffin III also led the NFL in yards per pass attempt (8.14), yards per rush attempt (6.8) and least interceptions thrown among players with 300-plus pass attempts (5).

    Griffin III began and finished his rookie campaign making history. With a season-opening win against the New Orleans Saints, he became the first player born in the 1990s to start at quarterback in NFL history. In the victory he completed 19-of-26 passes for 320 yards and two touchdowns and finished with a passer rating of 139.9, becoming the first player in NFL history to compile 300-plus passing yards, two or more passing touchdowns and no interceptions in an NFL debut. Griffin III finished the regular season helping the Redskins defeat the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17 to win their first NFC Championship since 1999. He surpassed 800 yards rushing for the season in the game, becoming the first rookie quarterback with 800-plus yards on the ground and 3,000-plus passing yards in a season. Griffin III also earned his first career Pro Bowl selection, becoming the first Redskins offensive rookie to earn a selection since Larry Brown in 1969.

    Griffin III is the first member of the Redskins to be named Pro Football Weekly/PFWA Offensive Rookie of the Year since Mike Thomas received the honor in 1975. Pro Football Weekly's annual awards are all selected by PFW editors and contributors along with members of the Professional Football Writers of America.

    AP up next.
