Oh, you mean when he was throwing for 100 yards on a 50% completion percentage? That season defining game?

No. Not the playoff game. The week before too.

Yeah. Morris was actually relevant into winning the game. Griffin was carried there in probably the worst QB performance in the league this year. Only his playoff performance rivals it.

Luck was absolutely robbed. He had less to work with than the other 2. And Wilson had that nasty D. Give Luck that Seahawk squad and there's no doubt they'd be in the SB or at least the NFCC

We'll laugh at this voting result when it's all said and done...

luck has to be upset, got out done by this kid for the Heisman and now rookie of the year

[TheCoolFan]

Of course...RG3 was great for the NFL this year. This is his time. But Russell Wilson will be the real winner from this group. Luck is the most talented, RG3 is the flashiest and most marketable, Wilson just wins

Well it's done. I know I am not going to convince those of you here that disagree but clearly the voters recognized his contributions more than just on the field. Like they did coach Arians.

RG3 would've run away with the award had he not screwed up his knee (pun partially intended). But that's the thing. What makes him dangerous is the threat of him ripping off 70 yards on a zone read and the play-action off of the resulting running game. And that's already gotten him concussed and gimped up. The Skins parted with three first rounders to get the guy. I bet we don't see much, if any zone read in DC next season. Unfortunately, Shanny's regular offense (sans the college stuff) is an excellent scheme and RG3's talents are tailor made to make it go.

That said, I would've voted for Luck.

[Mooney]

landslide victory:

29 votes Griffin
11 votes Luck
10 votes Russell

[jobberone]

Woulda picked Luck or Russell

[alecweezy]

Good for him.

I would've voted for Wilson, but don't mind this decision

[NIBGoldenchild]

He deserved it. He had more AP Rookie of the Week awards than anyone else this season, possibly ever. He actually did more for his team with less, than either Luck or Wilson had to.
