Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss calls Griffin and Grossman “RG3-I and RG3-II”

You would think that Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss would be doing cartwheels over the addition of rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III.
After all, the last four years of his career has seen more than one observer wonder whether or not Moss still has “it.”
Others ( such as myself) have looked towards the erratic carousel of QBs, offensive coordinators and head coaches as the reasons why Moss has not put up the numbers that he is capable of.
But none of that matters now as Moss stated not only that RG3 has a long way to go but he also has love for Rex Grossman according to an interview he did with WTEM-AM.
“It’s one of those situations where he is a young guy and at the end of the day regardless how much his skill level is better than other young guys like himself he still has to learn a lot day by day,” Moss said.
“So that’s one thing I want everyone to understand that he comes here with the big hope of turning everything around. We are all hoping that. We all want that, but I don’t want that pressure on him as if he has to be the one.”
“Rex is a guy you can always count on,” Moss said. “I think most definitely he can be a great attribute to RG3. I feel like both of them are RG3-I and RG3-2.”
I think the tag-team concept is beyond a far stretch seeing that Grossman and Griffin don’t have very much physically in common.
Professionally speaking, you certainly have to look a Grossman’s track record of inconsistency and ask yourself if that’s the guy you want passing along tips to a dynamic rookie QB.
I get it, Moss probably likes Grossman. But he should look at what Cam Newton did for Steve Smith’s career in Carolina and ask himself ‘did I really just say that?’
