Washington fans have a common expression and name that comes to mind when they see the future and dynasty of their team: RG3/RGIII/Robert Griffin III or any of these ways written.
Robert Griffin III has broken more records than almost any rookie QB has ever done and was the most talked about player throughout the NFL this season.
As many fans (and practically everyone) know, Griffin was injured during a game against the Baltimore Ravens from a hit by Haloti Ngata after rushing toward the center of the field, a very common (but controversial) mechanism Griffin utilized well throughout the season.
The Redskins were down by 8 points with less than a minute and half left on the clock as they put the fate of the game into the hands of another rookie QB, Kirk Cousins.
2 perfect passes later, the Skins were in the end zone after Pierre Garçon snatched an eleven-yard-catch with twenty-nine seconds remaining. What seemed like an impossibility was taking place before Washington and Baltimore’s very eyes.
However, the Redskins were still down 2 points.
With RGIII being the elusive QB he is, no one expected Cousins to make use of his speed, as he ran a quarterback sneak up the middle to tie the game and send it to over time.
And Skins got the W.
