TweetWashing Redskins QB Robert Griffing III (RG3) played a good game versus the New York Giants but took a beating along the way week 7.

There were 2 minutes and 7 seconds left, a stop by the Giants would have practically ended the game. Instead he prolongs the drive, on the next play runs and picks up a ton of yards which sets up a perfect 30 yard TD pass to Santana Moss. It was an impressive drive, you just had a feeling this kid would come through with something magical at the end. ...
