Andrew Luck or RGIII?

ESPN analyst Chris Carter feels there is no comparsion. Carter feels that Robert Griffin the 3rd is the best rookie QB this year and a dynamic new force that will change the way the game is played and the way the position is played.

How do I feel?  I think Robert Griffin the third is like Michael Vick, Cam Newton, or any other running back before them.  Eventually, their slobber....will get knockered.

That isn't to say that Andrew Luck isn't immune from getting hit with the way he hangs in the pocket and takes off every know and then.  My point and I believe the difference is the physical make up of the players themselves.  RGIII, like Michael Vick, isn't built to take many direct brutal hits (ask the tweeting birds he saw after the hit in the Falcons game).  Sure, Luck would probably not fare much better with a hit to the head like Griffin III sustained, but he more likely to deliver that blow than to receive it

Andrew Luck is a Ben Roethilisberger, Tim Tebow, John Elway, Peyton Manning Frankenstein.

He stands in the pocket and moves around to create like Big Ben.  He has the smarts to run the no huddle and read defenses like Peyton Manning.  He has the gun slinger, deliver a blow, helicopter in the Super Bowl mentality like John Elway, and all he does is WIN (and throw some picks) like Tim Tebow.

My prediction:  RGIII for Rookie of the Year and out of the league in 5 years.  Andrew Luck to break Manning's MVP total some day.
