The Long-Anticipated RG3/Andrew Luck Matchup Happens Tomorrow

The two rookie quarterbacks will face off at FedEx Field at 4.

We can’t decide whether to feel compassion for Redskins quarterback
Robert Griffin III. Are fans causing the enormous amount of pressure that’s landed on the rookie, or
is he inviting the attention? Is he ready for prime time? More than anything else
this week, is he ready to go up against that other rookie sensation, the Colts’
Andrew Luck? Some answers are near. The two quarterbacks, and their teams, meet tomorrow at FedEx
Stadium at 4 PM, the Redskins’ first home game of the preseason, the first time RG3
will play before the Washington audience. Both players bring with them much anticipation
and hype. Luck was the number one NFL draft pick, Griffin number two—the rest is football
mania. Of course, the debate is strong on Twitter. Here’s a random sampling of what’s
being said by Redskins and Colts fans.
