Yes he ran for 3 touchdowns, threw for over 300 yards, but did you see his percentage?
36 of 45 passes for 375 yards. Think about that!
Think about the dropped passes....
2 drop touchdowns in the endzone.
1 dropped pass the receiver bumbled as he started up field... maybe a couple more.
Amazing. Not perfect, but amazing.

Enjoy watching him. We may never see a quarterback in a Monarch uniform as successful as him.

The dude knows how to win. As long as our defense can keep it close, there is nobody i'd rather have at QB leading this team.

Wouldn't say it was quite pouring rain. Regardless, considering the conditions, it was one great performance.

Taylor H. showed flashes of Thomas D. in the Towson and Delaware games running for large chunks of yardish and TD's.

Even the INT was exceptional. One of the best one-handed grab I have seen a defender make at the college level.

Yeah, he should have thrown it farther because the DB was beat.

eery similarities between the Redskins and Monarchs this season. RGIII and TH can get it done on the ground or with ease through the air... but both have a crummy defense. oh, to see TH backing up RGIII in the NFL.

Yeah but he had -9 rushing yards!!! Cut him! (kidding) You know a kid is incredible when you see stats like those and you don't even blink or get "wowed" by them because you already saw him from for 730 yards and run for 60 more earlier in the season against a top 10 caliber team.

Unreal.

Ummm...except the won loss record. And the completion percentage. In fact, I don't think they're much alike at all. And please don't wish negative things on our Monarchs. We already have one relegated to the Browns. I would hate to see more Monarchs on rosters with virtually no hope of ever winning a championship.

Similarities between the Redskins and Monarchs? Really? Defensively, maybe, but the Redskins' passing attack is not putting up the stats we are.

You don't think the defense is a little better in the NFL?

RGIII had pretty fair stats at Baylor.
