Robert Griffin III: The Man Behind The Name

Didn't suggest they did (I hope).

I like them in a 16 game season. Once you account for the fact that none of the other three teams would compete for a wild card if the division title didn't exist, it pretty much comes down to record within the division. And Indy gets the divisions' best (or second best) quarterback, and just as many home games as everyone else.

I mean, heck, Indy went 2-4 in the division last year, isn't Luck worth some sort of bump?

Houston is hands down the best team in that division. They have the best QB, best wr, best RB, best o-line and the best defense w/out Mario Williams. Name one position where Indy is better than Houston? Maybe d-end and that's it.

Why is this even a story? Such a complete non issue.

I hope RGIII is selfish. so selfish that he insists on having the most TDs in the game compared to our opponents.

Probably the same moron who tried to hijack Cam Newton's draft stock last minute.

Ridiculous claims.

Houston has no depth. And it's a long season.


Is that why they made it to the playoffs on the back of a 3rd string rookie QB(yates), while his top WR (johnson) sat out 9 games last season and their top runner being out 3 games??

I think the facts prove you wrong.

No way the Colts finish ahead of Houston OR Tennessee. Jacksonville is a joke, they'll be in the basement. They should have gotten Tebow so they're at least fun to watch while losing. I'm so glad we passed on Gabbert.

I think Griffin and Trent Richardson will be neck and neck all season as the best rookies.

But I think Andrew Luck will actually get the (somewhat undeserved) rookie of the year award when he leads the Colts to the playoffs in the NFL's weakest division.

Help me with this statement, GTripp. Because I can't follow your logic whatsoever.

The road to the WildCard seems littered with insurmountable obstacles for the Colts. Either the Steelers or the Ravens will end up with one of them, they are both excellent teams returning basically intact. In the East the Pats should take the division, and in the West the Broncos should take the division. That leaves the Chargers and Jets involved in the Wildcard chase. And the Bengals were 9-7 as well, last year, and you have to figure Dalton, AJ Green and Jermaine Gresham will continue to grow.

Then if you talk about inter-division play, the Colts sit well behind the Texans. And the Titans aren't half bad with Hasselbeck making that offense not-so-one dimensional.

You really think Luck is enough to bump the record from 2-14 to 9-7 or 10-6, all while losing Garcon, Saturday, and a number of other key parts?

I'd love to hear why.

Yeah the Colts have to start back at square one. Houston has the best team in that division, and with Schaub coming back, they should easily finish at the top of that division.

The way he deals with the media reminds me a lot of Drew Brees and Kurt Warner. It's kind of a weird dynamic because it annoys me that he talks about himself and how he is but then again the media keeps asking him these questions and bringing these quotes or stories to his attention in hopes of getting a response.
