Rams made the best decision not to draft this bust.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/08/21/griffin-stands-by-his-doubters-tweet/#comments

So basically Robert Griffin III used twitter to "silence the doubters."

He seems to take things so personally. Sam Bradford gets a ton of flak (warranted or not). Do you see him taking to twitter and reiterating to the media he's out to prove the doubters wrong? No. Just goes about his business.

I don't think Robert Griffin III is a bust, I think that's a little far fetched. However, I'm more than happy there's a hard working professional on the Rams than a overhyped player that gets butt hurt easily with a creepy splitstache and fun rhyming initials.

He comes across as insincere, unlikable and disingenuous. I think that's going to make defenders want to really whack him, because they don't like or respect him. They are going to hit him and then say things like "do you doubt that I just whacked you?" Guys like to talk shit, smart players don't give them a reason to put a little extra on a hit then trash talk.

I like reading the PFT comments more than the articles. Some funny stuff gets posted there.

We play them this year, yea? I can't wait for him to cry like he did in 2012 about our "dirty play".

Agreed. It's funny; in any NFL article unrelated to the SB, Seahawk fans feel that it's necessary to remind the world they won.

It's also enough to make o linemen "miss" on occasional blocks.

Bradford is smart enough to know better than to gallivant around the twitter-verse proclaiming his greatness though. How many players have suffered hoof-in-mouth disease due to social media misadventures? It's dumb enough for regular folks to use social media these days; I've known a few people to miss out on jobs due to self-incrimination on social media. Millions of dollars to your name only raises the stakes.

Have though the guy is a bit sensitive ever since Craig Dahl of all players whacked him pretty good along the sidelines and he came prancing up with his feathers all ruffled that there was no flag.

YES. If the Rams drafted RG3.... lets just say I'd have much better things to do than watch that guy run around and lose. He's garbage, he's glass, he's arrogant, etc.

For some reason I think of Gumby when I think of RG3

Ehh I think socia media is fine. I don't think using it to preach is smart tho.

Lots of our Rams use twitter; Chris Long is hilarious. It's a way to interact with fans.

Looks to me the real bonified best QB in Washington is the 2012 drafted selected player 100 players after RG3.
