Yep, and people seem to forget Griffin is 6'2" and built solid. No QB since Brady Quinn has hit the weights as hard as Robert.

3 inches of height isn't a huge difference when it comes to getting hit by a freight train like Patrick Willis.

He's a lot stronger and tougher than he's given credit for. He has taken some monster hits and just gets up.
